Skin Builder 3, 8, and the Growing Up skins by Zev0, Discobob, Draagonstorm at Daz are all MRs. You'll need to read the resource agreements included w/ the products. The Skin Builder's are both for the females only, but the Growing Up products have adult male and female addons for G3.

Raiya just came out with a new one for G8F, and Vyusur has made a few G3F/M and G8F/M. These are also at Daz.
