Polynesian characters, clothes, and props

Disney is releasing the movie Moana in late November or early December. You can find previews on YouTube. DAZ has Kimo 7 and Kalea 7 characters and 3 bundles which could be expanded on. I thought that if DAZ and some PAs were to release Polynesian themed products in December, they might be able to sell it to people who had just watched the movie. I would suggest some of the following types of items:

Characters - there are 7 characters for Kalea and 4 for Kimo, but traditional tattoo overlays might be nice. Also, with the movie featuring a teenage protaganost, a polynesian character for Josie 7 and perhaps the tweens might sell better than usual for kids.

Clothes - a grass skirt and loincloth would be very useful. There are currently none here at DAZ, and the ones I did find are for Genesis 1, V4, and M4. A set of headdresses, helmets, and capes would be nice as well.

Props - traditional weapons and poses. A village similar to the Asian River Bundle, with a couple of traditional huts, household items, and an outrigger fishing canoe. Boats ranging from fishing canoes to war canoes and twin hulled ocean going ships.

Animals - fish and seabirds, some of the ones here at DAZ are quite old and new versions would be nice.

The bundles in the store are:

While nice bundles, they are lacking in traditional/historic items. Ideally the characters and props would support 3Delight as well as Iray.

    I doubt there will be Moana themed release but who knows : )

    I wouldn't count on fish and birds though. I feel like animals can be difficult to make and do not sell that well so that's why artists don't really make them.
