    I like Maarah and most of the new clothes and hair, but the character herself does nothing for me.

    Well, she's got a great a smile. :)

  • she kinda looks like a Mousso girl

  • I'll wait until the store settles down. No promo teasers on homepage and no banner for me at the moment. Hope that will change. - And yes, she definitely looks like a Mousso girl.

    Hmm, promo page is available now. Only that 10% for buying two new releases thing? No extra discount for buying X add-ons? No extra discount via banner? That's actually rather a let-down. Don't know if I will get her then. If so probably only with one add-on this time then.

  • To be honest I do mostly fantasy and science fiction renders and nothing in the bundle really grabs me. Nothing looks exactly fantasy or sci-fi, used to be pretty much every bundle had some fantasy outfit in it. The character herself looks good, but not so cracked up about the outfits...

    Not meaning to complain really, but I guess this could look like a complaint, though I mean it only as an observation.

    She reminds me of a European actress whose name escapes me, and that European exquisiteness is what Mousso captures so well. Babina 8's front page promo renders make her look so stunning, especially with the high forehead, center-part straight hair (the name of which also escapes me). Her skin looks FABULOUS! And the last several HD Add-Ons prove that Daz heard our cries about non-HD HD Add-Ons, but they kind of went overboard with the nasolabial creases. Pores, not creases, on younger women.

    I think she's hot. But other than Capsces' pose set, I see nothing else in the Pro Bundle that interests me at all. But I do appreciate the 20% off my cart, even though it was 15 minutes too late to save me what could have been $40 (except it wouldn't have because most of those items went off special discount today). I'm not complaining. The Vellus body hair is also a long-awaited great idea that appears very well-done. Now to see how it autofits to not-Babinas.

    Really bad deal.

    No purple banner, no free items and the pro bundle is really expensive. With two addons, the pro banner is $47.23 instead of the usual ~$38.

    Easy skip.

    Hmm.  Yet another generic white girl. Fairly useless assortment of generic skimpwear.  No free products with purchase.  Can't get the 2 for discount on category one if you buy the Pro Bundle since everying else in that category is already in the pro bundle.  Not seeing a purple bar either... 

    I guess DAZ really doesn't want to sell this one, as I'll get a better deal waiting two months until it goes to 70+ percent off.  Bye bye.

    Same here; no extra incentives this time around.  And I have a lot of G8F characters; so, I'll probably skip this one.

    Are y'all sure you're not just being impatient on the discounts? I have her in my cart with two addons and a purple banner that gets her Pro Bundle to $37.78. Maybe refresh your browsers or wait until the store settles down before deciding. Or don't. <shrug>

    Lucky you. No banner for me despite owning all G8 Pro bundles to date. What was your purpole banner for?

    Some of the items in Pro bundle looks nice, but since I am loosing access to the older characters in Daz Studio like Victoria 8

    and the other with names starting with letters T, U, V and so on, there is no point for me to buy new Genesis 8 Female characters.

    By the way. Anybody knows, if it is possible to load Victoria 8 to the scene in Daz Studio

    some other way, than by clicking on the icon (which I do not have any longer in Characters)?

    Um should be able to just load A genesis 8 female and then look in the morps listed on the right side after you click on her, I know all of mine are, and why are you losing access to  items with later letters in the alpahabet?

  • I've skipped the last few bundles due to various combos of cash concerns and not wanting the characters enough - last I bought was the Indian couple or Elios 8 (whichever was most recent of those releases).

    Ended up spending some in the store anyway during last few release days as there were some nice bargains to be had separate from the Release event.

    Kind of tempted to buy this girl - I do love several of the clothes and Babina is nice enough - she does exude an energy, and some of her companion characters are quite nice, although the hair in the bundle kind of lets it down for me - one is just plain silly, the other longish curly is rather similar to Bronwyn, Karissa, stella......

    ...But I've refrained on much nicer products recently (sorely tempted by the colourful centaurs, and several of the last Pro female came with some striking morphs, but I already had all of Centaur 7 I barely used, too soon for a refresh I thought).

    I really have an awful lot of characters already though, I'm not sure nice enough or even quite nice is compelling enough this time round, specially if I've run out of grace on the banner deals.

    By default there is a limit to how many product icons that are shown in a category, you can increase it by clicking the "+" button in the upper right corner of the window.

    That is a really good question. I am a Daz shop customer since 2004, so maybe I have just hit the limit.

    I wonder if Daz has some kind of limit of how many characters could be installed in each category.

    I have not noticed any missing characters in Genesis 8 Male category, so I will continue to purchase them instead.

    Then it's time to fill out a ticket, and gently request that you be brought to the Daz god's remembrance.

    My notification was in Messages/Newsletters instead of Messages/Exclusive Offers.

    Did it give you a coupon to enter or did it just tell you to add X items to the cart? I have a suspicion that the discounts aren't actually reliant on the banner itself based off previous experiences. Since I haven't gotten my banner for this round, I figured now would be a good time to experiment.

    She looks to me like Victoria 8's younger sister. I don't really have a use for her, but overall the clothing looks nice--a lot of contemporary stuff with kitbash potential.

    This is super nitpicky, but I miss the collage-style main images for core character bundles. They made them easy to identify at a glance when browsing and set the characters apart a bit.

    Banner with 20% arrived for me now. But it‘s still a bad deal after there are no free items

    @woodenauthor I was given a coupon code. Since I wanted nothing in the Pro Bundle other than Capsces' poses, I just got them, Babina 8, HD Add-On, and the dForce Vellus Hair for under $35. I could have gotten the Pro Bundle with the HD & Vellus Hair for $56, but at this point, I don't need more stuff that I don't want in my Product Library.

  • With 10% off purple banner discout applied I'd get a G8 Pro Bundle for $42,50. I've seen a lot better deals within the past few months.
    Looks like the Daz guys want to keep their Pro Bundles on this sale.
    I really could need them, but due to pricing I'll have to skip until I see at least prices around $30 again (in cart with all discounts applied).
