For the Gen 3 shapes bundles...why is David 3 off by himself?
And for Gen 4, they have an icion bundle...but V4 & M4 are in their own set, then Reby Sky and S4 are off singled out
And the prices are like all over the place...why would Reby even cost more then S4

David 3 was the first 3rd Generation shape done -- because it did well DAZ 3D decided to do the other iconic figures. I imagine it made sense to leave D3 out of the bundle, because most of the people who would want the bundle would already have the D3 shape.
For the 4th Generation shapes, M4 and V4 were done first, and S4 was a bonus that you got for buying the M4/V4 set in the first 2 weeks. S4 was then vaulted for some time -- it became available again for Christmas, I think, and eventually DAZ 3D gave in to requests to make it available permanently.
I'm not certain, but I think Reby might have been a similar bonus for buying the 4th Gen iconic shapes bundle, which was also vaulted.
As for pricing, setting aside that sometimes some of them are on sale (F3/S3 shapes are in FastGrab right now), I imagine DAZ 3D set them based on how well the original 4th Gen versions sold.
okay
thanks for the reply
