    Next LaTonya 8, an old African woman...

    Note: the male figure is late, it's the third female figure after The Girl 8 and Teen Kaylee 8

    I think the Dog 8 counted as male!

     

    Then the next figure should be released in 1 or 2 weeks.

  • Or tomorrow.....
  • Maybe after Lee and Mei we can get a Taeyong 8 and Taeyeon 8. Lets get some K-Pop stars in the mix!

  • nonesuch00nonesuch00 Posts: 18,316

    I think that the figure didn't release today means there is a good shot at it being the Guy 8 Pro Bundle more than a typical supermodel like Mei Lin 8 or Lee 8. 

  • Alley RatAlley Rat Posts: 397

    Yes!!

    Maybe after Lee and Mei we can get a Taeyong 8 and Taeyeon 8. Lets get some K-Pop stars in the mix!

    I would really like Korean characters. That would be nice.

  • Alley RatAlley Rat Posts: 397

    I would spend so much money on a decent Korean male character.

  • dreamfarmerdreamfarmer Posts: 2,128

    Yesss Korean characters wow would be great.

  • PaintboxPaintbox Posts: 1,633

    +1 for Korean

  • Mei Lin, Lee, Korean actor/actress huh? I highly doubt that. 

    Dazteen Land doesnt like that! Well, 2 Pro (female) Teen Bundles are not enough. 

    Come on Daz, we need more teens. My wallet will love you to death! devil

    Crazy nothing dropped for the 1st of August. Maybe it's too early still. Weird. This will be the first I have seen where 2 weeks went by and no new TA-DO!

    Maybe they also read this thread and shuffling the schedule? (One can imagine :)

    The new Vance Hair fits toon Dwayne 8 which is probably next to be released. The new Jiwoo Sandals lists Zelara 8 in addition to Latonya 8 so these may be the next female releases.

    Good to know.  Guess I'll be saving more money then.  Males only for me for a while. I have plenty of female shapes and I'm good in ZBrush so I can make my own in any case but I'll support male pack releases as long as they are outstanding.  Hear that DAZ?  Good!

    Vance Hair female lists a fit for Zelara 8 but not for LaTonya 8, if that means anything. What's Zelara? An Arabian girl? Or Thorne doll goes to space? Because we need another numbered Thorne doll. I jest.

  • nonesuch00nonesuch00 Posts: 18,316

    I'm not gonna lie, Guy 8 Pro Bundle and addons is last pro bundle I buy for the 8 cycle unless they come up with astounding Morpheus His & Hers Pro Bundle & add-ons. I might even skip Guy 8 Pro Bundle if it's not as amazing (OK excellent, let's not get carried away), as Edie 8 Pro Bundle, Girl 8 Pro Bundle, and the addons made available for those as say as compared to Ollie 8 Pro Bundle which was good & original but not as good as what the ladies got in support, even the Jonah for Ollie 8 didn't come out til a bit afterwards and the clothing and hair still didn't get to the variety of Edie 8 & Girl 8 to say nothing of all the Girl 8 addon characters, less so Edie 8 addon characters but still better than Ollie 8 got.

    Google Images suggests Zelara is... an Alien

    Found in Star Wars novel : Dark Nest I: The Joiner King

    That's what I was thinking. If she is extraterrestrial, I hope Josh Crockett did her, though I already have Nenana.

    I hope if it’s male it has good clothing and hair. It’s been pretty dry on the male content lately

  • Even after all these months, I really can't get my head around these G8 figures. They just don't seem to work as easily as the G3 ones do and if you try to morph anything it just seems to make something else look totally wrong.

    I think 12 new core figures should be released (4 males, 8 females) and some creatures like they did with Demon for G3, Centaur 7, Minotaur 6 and Reptilian 6.

    I think the next week's release, if there is one, of a new DAZ Pro Bundle will be the 1st 2 week gap in DAZ Pro Bundle releases for the Genesis 8 cycle.

  • On a whim, I checked the fits list for Effa Hair 2 by SWAM. Latonya 8's there, Zelara 8's there, and... Gia 8? Typo?

    Well if we get a Gia 8 we'd better get a Gianni then ;)

    I've been wondering whether after bringing out Olympia 8, way early, they haven't sort of reversed the order of some of the characters that tend to return.

    Monique and Darius were always *really* late in the lineup and this time they were really early. Mei Lin and Lee generally came reasonably before the half-way point in the lineup and this time they haven't. If they've been plugged into Monique and Darius's usual slot we won't see them before November, possibly December.

    Gianni was something like the very first male morph to show up after Michael. The more lightly-built males (other than Lee) tended to be much later. This time we got Lucas fairly early. Owen came out of nowhere.

    This cycle seems to be pushing age lines so far. (And about time.) I'm not really counting Edie and Olie, even though they were official, because their designer's figures have been one-offs about half the time. I don't really expect to see Ollie9 and Edie9.
