    So the guy is huge. I tried sliming him a bit, and reducing body size, but he didn;t seem to want to be smaller. Will try again later. Anyway, for the pj crowd.

    Yeah, he reminds me more of the Brute 8 than Vladimir 8.

    I ended up blending him & Edward 8 in a 65/35 ratio.

    I'll +1 the not wanting another beefy guy, but I reaaaaaaaly like the skin texture itself

    So heres the skin on very much not the morph

     

    also worth mentioning theres no stubble or hair baked into the textures, which makes me very happy indeed + mesh brows and body hair and the tattoo is added via geoshell so it can be applied on other characters

    You made him very cute.

    The new loyalty discount coupon and store credit puts the bundle at $13.93 for me. So tempting but I just don't need another brute. I would have preferred more outfits and a more detailed blacksmith shop. Seems the PAs continue to focus on redundant characters when the real money ought to be in accessories and props. When I was a kid I had a GI Joe. One doll and a multitude of accessories. Not multiple dolls and nothing for them to wear or use. Y' know?

    I didn't even give the bundle a second look; as I already have sufficient blacksmith related products.  However, your renders showcasing the skin, make me look again.  

    Still, only the skin and the Leather Collection: Distressed are of any interest.

    Glad I waited since that extra discount popped up. It was cheaper to get the bundle than just Kjaer and the blacksmith outfit.

    Unlike some of y'all, I'm pro-beefy guys and if it wasn't for the way DAZ deals tend to be, I'd buy them up immediately.

    Kajaer looks pretty good. He certainly is very bulky for a viking. They really weren't that huge. At any rate, I can't wait for the HD morphs.

    i gonna be honest while i'm thinking in buy it, like the female viking i do feel it being another "overpriced" stuff again, we get now only 1 outfit, 1 hair and 2 charaters ( 1main 1 secondary) and one pose from the "basic for characters" then we get a blacksmith set which is ok, we get a set of shield and swords which don't make too much sense if you think which they could be part of the blacksmith set or come in the "warrior bundle", then we get one pack of leather textures which feel totally random on this pack, really for me a overpriced pack which some stuffs which would be better not being there.

    He's not really on display, but he's definitely in there.

    Grend'aww

  • In the promo images "they" are wearing outfits that are not on the lists of included items. Same for Freja, And the Egyptian collections. So I did not buy those. The clothes and hair really set the characters apart. Without the outfits they are just more people. Not that there is anything wrong with people, I just think that clothes make them more "special". Can anyone show me how to find the outfits in the promos? I remember when the consumer was informed as to where the promo outfits could be purchased, At least mentioning that promotional attire would not be included.

    If you post a link to the promo image of the outfit or outfits you're interested in, that could narrow it down and probably make it easier for people to help you identify it/them.

    And as expected, today we will -- eventually -- have the Plunder Bundle. Possibly with actual virtual plunder, should the promo be believed.

    I've always wondered how people covered in tatoos can afford all of them. I have only one on my upper arm & was appaled at the price.

    Wait wait wait...so Kjaer is included in the new bundle?!? I didn't even want the other stuff in the bundle yesterday, but I bought it because I figured the character wouldn't be part of the 2nd bundle today! HOLY CRAP....what in the abslute insanity! So now I have to buy him TWICE?!? Can I just return yesterday's bundle?

    So now, as DAZ is going ethnic, can we plz finally have a duo of believable Native Americans?

    I didn't expected him in the today bundle either and purshased the Base yesterday and the new bundle today, and then I opened a ticket to get a refund for the base yesterday, I hope it works .... I thought it would be like the bundles of freja....

    I waited throughout the day and currently have the price down to $20.82 for the Kjaer 8 Blacksmith Bundle!  Two purple banners and added another new item, Statuary Materials for Dog 8 ($8.08).  Niiiice.

     

    I had decided to skip this one, but the second banner brought the bundle down to $20.53 in cart, or $10.53 after credit. That put the bundle items around $1.32 each, so now I have a Viking blacksmith in my library.

    But I'll be skipping the Plunder bundle unless Daz offers a better deal - it currently carts at $33.91 for me, or $30.52 when purchased alongside another new release. Its contents are less interesting than the Blacksmith bundle (imo), especially given the duplication of the base character, and it's a lot more expensive, so Daz would need to sweeten the deal quite a bit to interest me.

    Maybe give a second use of the coupon and toss in the HD add-on for free? That would likely be enough.

  • I'm seriously thinking about buying him, looks like a fun counterpart to Freja laugh

    I was wondering whether anybody recognises the outfit shown in this pic? I'm relatively new to DAZ so I'm still a bit clueless. 

    Is out now in this bundle. :)

    Hope you'll have fun, is a great outfit.

    It's not right having base character In two bundles . There has to be a deal for this.
  • Serene NightSerene Night Posts: 17,677

    I am now considering returning the blacksmith bundle and buying just the plunder one. I like that the plunder one has non-dforce clothing, the poses and hair are more interesting. Idk.

    I don't get the point of putting Kajaer in both sets.

    Nice! Which character did you apply the texture here? Looks so realistic!

    Whoa, I mean, wow! I mean what the blip? Surely you worked your magic on this.

  • davesodaveso Posts: 7,177

    think i'm passing on the plunder bundle. Not going to waste my cash on buying the same character twice, nor should i have to file a ticket to get a refund. Most of it I don;t need anyway, so Sten and maybe the hair, but I don;t like the hair much either. 

    Daz sale techniques are pretty wonky anymore

  • Serene NightSerene Night Posts: 17,677

    I am curious if you are actually paying for the character. When I pulled up the plunder bundle it told me the price breakdown for 'items I did not own.'

    Is that Ati's add-on? I suspect it just takes the total price divided by the number of unowned items.

  • Plunder Bundle is $30.52 in my cart (plus the Viking Raider Outfit Textures, which are $3.96 in cart)... after purple banner & daily discount.

    So, of course it's time to wait most of the day to determine if other banners pop up.
