I was hoping DAZ would get this up yesterday, but you know how it is, the DAZ wheels grind very slowly, but they grind excedingly fine! Anyway, I did a major upgrade to Glamorous Vickie, the big change is she gets her own OBJ file, with all the changes in the mesh, instead of by morphs in the CR2. Lighter in Poser, you get the idea, and her clothing fits better, as all the joint parameters work on the actual shape. While I was at it I also brought her up to the Ingenue Vickie standard with addittional JCM at the neck and so on (you can see the neck-turn JCM in this pic). Plus I added all the body morphs that Ingenue Vickie already had (most of which are chest sizes, I feel her body is about optimum anyway) ;-) This makes har a figure, instead of a character, BTW. I don't think DAZ is going to have any problems with the upgrade, it will be Free for the first two weeks, $4.95 after that. I just wanted to mention all of the above so nobody says "If I'd only known about this while the big sale was running..."

"the big change is she gets her own OBJ file" Interesting. Does that mean Victoria 3 base is not required anymore?

Like Shazz, I just bought her during the sale. She's really great and the upgrade sounds fantastic! Thanks Jim!

Jim; I have the very first Glamrous Vicky. (won her in a contest at InDepth Arts). Do I have to upgrade her to anything more? Before using your new Figure? Thanks; Leah

Once she is installed (I don't know how DAZ is going to set up the installer) you will not need the V3 OBJ file. All the V3 morphs and textures still work, of course. There was also a SR 1 update previously, but you don't need that, I included the changes in the new verson. I'll post a message when it actually gets up, I'm expecting they will set this up as a new item, the intro price will be naught, though. ;-)
