    Is Keiko now in the store? I see an advertisement and click it but nothing is shown in the store.

    It is one that have adchoices options. It is in a page about Citgo Petroleum out of Daz store. Majority of advertisement that I see in any page are from DAZ and R store, I suppose because I frequently visit these stores.

    I think Keiko at Renderosity refers to an addon package of materials for the V4 Fan dress.

    Yes, totally. A cute girl with sci-fi suit.

    Interesting end result. Seems to be a hybrid of Aiko 6 and Fiends Forever.

    Definitely more deserving of the 'stylised' category than Belle/Brodie had been. :)

    Bundled her straight into the cart. Seemed weird that they went with an extra bundle this time around - Normal, Pro and the 'Mega Manga' bundle? I think that last one includes just about everything Keiko related, so I picked it up. I must say she's a gorgeous figure, perfect for toon renders and she blends nicely with some of the other toons I have for Genesis 2, especially Aiko and Girl 6.

    Now the real question is when I'll stop playing with my new toys and get some actual work done...

    Er... what DAZ has actually done is cut the size of the Pro Bundles down (from 16/15 items down to 12/11), first with Belle and now with Keiko. Then they made this new Mega bundle with the same number of items that the Pro bundles USED to have, and raised the prices by a goodly chunk across the board.

    They've raised prices on the base figures, too. From $39.99 to $44.99!! And Belle's Starter Bundle is $90, too.

    So it seems. Maybe this is an attempt to offer smaller bundles aimed at the mid-range? To be fair though, Belle didn't have a vast well of items for her release to begin with, and the Pro bundle included all of the Daz ones, with the rest being PA releases. Technically, I suppose they're all PA releases, but the ones bought by Daz were the ones included.

    It is rather curious how the prices have gone up though. From my perspective it's still reasonably priced, given Daz's usual standards for quality, but I do hope it's not an ill omen. Well, enough gloom. Here's a cheerful picture of the new girl.

    Well, it's more accurately smaller bundles aimed at the same price range. Especially since with this one they've split out the pose sets that have come automatically with the other Gen6 characters and are including that in the bundles to inflate the number of items. Couple that with the jacking up of the base figure price, and it's much less for much more than ever before. Maybe that's DAZ's new slogan for 2015?

    In any case, I can't imagine that that's going to turn out to be a great idea with this character, as so far the K6 UV set looks to be DOA. If there's no reason to buy the character for the UV set, it's going to be more practical for a lot of folks to just wait and buy the individual items they really want when they go on sale at the inevitable 70% off in two months.

    It seems like she's going to be another last-week-of-the-month release...

    That's good for me, it gives me a chance to toss it in the budget when they do that.

    lol. Are you that anxious to get something before it is ready for launch? Perhaps a hint of "Go Fever"? lol.

    I can understand the desire to look forward to a new launch, tho lets not repeat Apollo 1, please.
    The new figure will be ready, when it is ready :coolsmile:

    I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't release a new character in February, instead releasing the next one in early March as DAZ's entry into March Madness (since apparently March Madness is now mostly PA's)

    DAMMIT IT!!!!! I was only asking YESTERDAY for some great african/african american/jamaican etc skins for Gen2F, with awesome DS mats.....and I bought an oldie last night.

    If the PC got sneak peeks like we're apparently SUPPOSED to, I might have known about this a week ago and not wasted my damn money on an older product. Cos they look FANTASTIC.

    ...indeed, the colouration on the palms of the hands and soles of the feet look good.
