It's a silly question, but I'm having a hard time finding out where they're at in the terms of Genesis. They look too advanced to be Genesis 1 or 2, but not enough to be Genesis 8. I'm looking at some products for a request that I have (to make a half human/half snake - naga) and I saw this -

And thought that it might be a good skin for it, but not really sure if I can use it with G8F.
Basic question, I know, thanks for helping me out anyway.

That's not compatable with G3 or G8. You would probably be able to use the skin on Genesis(1), but not the morph. To use the morph and skin on G3/8 you'd need some sort of character converter and a texture converter. For G8 try https://www.daz3d.com/cobra-queen-for-genesis-8-female or maybe https://www.daz3d.com/dragkon-for-genesis-8-male.

Nowhere. Victoria and Michael 4 were before Genesis 1, which is Generation 5 of Daz figures.
There are converters to use their morphs, skins or clothes with figures from the Genesis line though.
It's an add-on for this product, which you will need if you want to transfer the morphs and not only use the textures. Hmm.. I think I'll grab them both and use GenX2 to transfer the morphs to Genesis;) Tks for bringing them to my attention
zombietaggerung - Thanks! I know that I really need to get those converters, but I work with G8 so much that I'm afraid of wasting my money on it if I'm rarely gonna use it, but it's starting to seem like a good investment now.
Catherine3678ab - Not sure how I didn't see this, or why I didn't get this one instead of the one I got, but here we are. Thanks for pointing that out for me.
Leana - Thank you for clarifying this. I spent a little while trying to find a clear cut answer like this and was having the worst of luck. Thank you.
Sven Dullah - You're welcome! I'm glad that my silliness was able to remind you!
If you are happy with G8, just skip the old Victoria 4 and Michael 4. I have a HUGE library of content for both of them and most of the converters and I just don't use any of it anymore. Sticking to newer items myself now.
Well I feel it was money well spent:) Happy to expand my G1 gene pool with RawArt's excellent Lizardian head and nice textures;)

Scott did a really good job consolidating all the add-on info into the original post
