    I've seen the promo image - it comes through in an email with the daz browser add on...but this is the very first time ever that I've clicked on it, and been taken to yesterday's sale page, and not today's. Weird. She looks interesting in the promo image anyway.

    It's another woman?

    Looking quite good although the sales page did not appear right now. But the above two show the bundles and its content and also like to some of the texture add-ons. Both bundles are great. Less outfits in the Twosret-Bundle but interesting other stuff. Although the banner and extra 20% are nice. Now I bite my a** that I did already get new releases from the last two PA days cause I could get them cheaper today but I guess there will be a "cannot buy other stuff for a lower price"-exception tag.

    Nevertheless I think I go for both bundles right away.

    Looks somehow inspired by Elizabeth Taylor as Cleopatra it seems.

    Oh dear - there is another offer with a coupon....but if you use the purple banner coupon, you can't use that one as you can only use one coupon at a time. That's a bummer

    Thanks for the links @Rod_Wise_Driggo! Ethnic Liz Taylor, what's not to love? She's the Mami's Revenge.

    I thought Elizabeth Taylor too! LOL. There are some really beautiful promo images in the base product - wow. 

    So, three outfits. Two hairs - although I'm going to say 1 hair and 1 wig cos the Hemet-Nisut hair looks like a wig..it doesn't seem to sit flush against the head in the images. Separate makeup - geoshells? - I love that idea, can be used on other figures too. 2 sets of poses. Plus 1 set of animations. Senet game. And the ubiquitous expression pack. And 1 character. 

    I REALLY like only 1 character being included - I get a bit tired of the 3 or more characters being included in a bundle. (Now, if they would only drop the expression packs....)

    LOVE the makeup idea - that's a bonus cos it's versatile for other characters. 

    I like the base figure - Twosret 8 herself (man, how do we pronounce that??)

    There were a few female Pharaohs, and she looks good at a glance, but I doubt I'd have much use for the bundle. Not keen to jump on it anyway, after Day-2 buyers of Sukai got a better deal than Day-1 buyers.

    It's also somewhat expensive given the niche content - $60.86 after purple banner. The $20 credit helps, and brings it down closer to other recent bundles, but still not really feeling it.

    It doesn't help that Anubis is an add-on instead of being part of one of the bundles, and that the purple banner deal requires a coupon code and thus can't be used with today's other offers.

    Huh. I've only got the purple banner coupon, but the whole deal is ... odd. For the first time in well over a year, possibly longer, the purple coupon deal actually winds up costing a fair amount more than if I get the three items I want plus the three add-ons I want. (I'd probably get Ramses and those shaders regardless.)

  • GordigGordig Posts: 10,189

    Whoa, an actual add-on for Horse 2.

  • EllessarrEllessarr Posts: 1,395

    ok while i've liked the overal "pack" i can't stop to "rant a little" or get disapointed about it:

    https://www.daz3d.com/egyptian-senet-game-and-poses-for-genesis-8

    https://www.daz3d.com/egyptian-senet--noble-expansion

     

    serious why those 2 stuffs are part of the "bundle"????, her bundle have 13 stuffs and only 3 outfits, 2 hairs and 2 characters, which means only 7 stuffs with 1 animation which i liked 1 expressions and one poses and 1 make uup and 2 random stuffs, i would prefer if those 2 random stuffs and the make up would be "addons", and they added more outfits and characters than those 3 stuffs in the bundle, let me be clear i'm not saying which those stuffs are bad or horrible or anything like that however for a new daz original bundle to be "so messed" omg and even the price, i really don't feel it is worth the price for me, she not even have the "outfit from the main promo image.

    Also the "creatures bundle another issue, they got the "2 missing" girls from the main bundle and place here, instead of add a "female mumy" and add another creature like a sphinx or a "another type of creature, they added 2 females missing from the main bundle making it's looks outof place, a really, really bad bundle choice in my opnion, this looks like another "pass from me" or only a 'future when i really feel wanting to buy, maybe i can buy the monsters but it even feel weird;

    Both bundles (including purple banner coupon) for $60.86? And a $20 gift certificate coming back?

    I have to think about that. Egyptian isn't really on my list of projects, but maybe...

    With my purple banner, the two bundles and three add-ons, my total dropped by $13.94, so was a good deal.

    Buying both bundles is $4.80 cheaper than buying only the Twosret 8 bundle (I'm using purple banner coupon and have 3+ add-ons). But Daz has taught me to delay purchasing Core Figure Bundles.

    That HD Add-On looks very good. And no nasolabial creases or extra eye crinkles.

    Ah, that partially explains it. I didn't put the creature bundle in, since I wasn't interested. (That said, I didn't realize it had a sarcophagus with a mobile lid, which is something I've wanted for a while. Hmm...)

    THAT said ... if I just get the stuff I'm interested in (three things from the main bundle, three addons, and the sarcophagus scene), it still comes in lower than the two bundles plus three addons plus the purple banner coupon. The only thing that makes it any different is the $20 store credit refund, which isn't a factor otherwise. You might have a different coupon than I do, though.

    There is no city where the pyramids are shown ??

    instead of ANCIENT EGYPTIAN Creature Bundle
    There were supposed to be Egyptian ships, cities, weapons and army from RiverSoft Art artist .

    Having two items being for an Egyptian game, one for an animation I can’t use and more expressions make it a pass again for me. Wish there was a Mousso character and some other beautiful Egyptian characters included and the clothes were more revealing and sexy. I really don’t understand the Papyrus outfit with bell bottoms..? The makeup seems cool as do the hair and headdress items. I’ll probably cherry pick some of the items either now or when on better sale but there aren’t enough items in the bundle I actually want. It seems like the bundles have more fillers lately than useful items, The character is OK, seems like a teen Jane/Robyn/Ellithia/Aubrey/CJ type character and doesn’t really scream Egyptian to me. I really wish Mousso would ctreate these core characters...

    THe higher prices mostly offset by loyalty coupons is all very well. And I'll happily accept it.

    But it does mean that there is no opportunity to use the monthly PC+ coupon. Which new base releases have always been one of the few new items that one could traditionally use them for.

    I'm mostly pleased by the bundle. Although I have absolutely no use for the animation package. Not much use for the makeup either, but at least this time the extreme makeup is appropriate.

    Bravo - a bundle fantasy artists will adore - a kitbasher's dream for princesses and priestesses in a Hyborian world.

    If you're looking for an idea for revealing clothing, I'm actually considering the Anubis Priest outfit for G8M, so I could convert the top to G8F. Should go nice with some loincloth or something.

    As for the two coupons: they will obviously only work if you're already thinking about getting 5 or 6 of the addons. Just make sure to combine the 3 more expensive addons with the bundles and the banner coupon (the HD Addon drops to $9.06 for me when I do that), and the cheaper addons with the Select Pharaoh Items coupon.

    EDIT: Banner coupon affects gift cards as well.

    I like Twosret 8 and the HD-Add-on looks detailed. Don't need Egypt that much, but love the variety and the details. Creature bundle not needed, but you can't make a good deal without it.

    However I don't have endless money to throw at DAZ. $71 is a good price for all that stuff, but if I only count what I definitely going to use in my renders it's too expensive. I'll wait for another deal.
