Does anyone recognise the smiles actually used in the promos:

The smile that ships with the character is not depicted in any of the promos that I can see.
Thanks!
(Rarestone, an easy product suggestion for you: bundle all your promo expressions up and sell them!).

I'm sure people would like to get a list of the hair and clothing used in the promos too, but like in typical Rarestone fashion, nothing is listed. The promos look great, but it's a shame we don't know what we're looking at, or where to get it.
Rarestone generally uses own products in promos.
I think 1st smile is from https://www.daz3d.com/hd-kayla-remake-and-kayla-hair-for-genesis-8-female-
And 2nd smile is https://www.daz3d.com/rn-hd-alisa-and-alisa-hair-for-genesis-8-female
For other promo items:
hair (basketball outfit image): https://www.daz3d.com/grace-yong-and-grace-yong-hair-for-genesis-8-females
socks / shoes (and maybe skirt): https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-bunny-outfit-for-sakura-8
basketball uniform: https://www.daz3d.com/athletics-basketball-for-genesis-2-female-s
Or this one transfered from g8m: https://www.daz3d.com/basketball-court-outfit-for-genesis-8-male-s
sneakers: https://www.daz3d.com/rare-n-nirv-shoes-collection-for-genesis-8-females
hair in main promo image - not sure about that. Could be modified this one: https://www.daz3d.com/acicia-bundle-for-genesis-8-females or this one https://www.daz3d.com/yui-remake-character-and-hair-for-genesis-81-female
Couldn't find knitted vest though.
I think the hair from the basketball uniform pic is this one:
https://www.daz3d.com/natsuki-hair-for-genesis-8-females
The bob hair might be a combination of these two:
https://www.daz3d.com/matilda-hair-for-genesis-8-females
https://www.daz3d.com/acicia-bundle-for-genesis-8-females
The parting at the top looks like an exact match for Matilda hair, but the front bangs have either been modified or replaced with something else.
I'm wondering why she's now missing from the store?
Interesting. I notice that RS Genesis 8.1 Female Skin Merchant Resources Vol 01 https://www.daz3d.com/rs-genesis-81-female-skin-merchant-resources-vol-01 ; has gone missing too. Not before I purchased it thankfully.
Dang, I wanted both the merchant resource and Minto elder, I hope they bring them back.
"Recognize the smiles"...
What?
A facial expression is just a pose preset. You open PowerPose, move the controls, and make the character smile. There's nothing to "recognize" since every G8 character can do it.
Patronise much? You're clearly in a bad mood...
The specific smiles Rarestone tends to use in their promos are not just dial spun/powerpose but involve custom morphs to accentuate certain shapes,folds and creases. Sometimes these are included in their character products. Were this character still available you'd see that.
If it's a morph for this character's face morph, it probably wouldn't be sold separately.
Anyway, if you want to know what's in the product, check the product page:
http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/read_me/index/82031/start
Given all the misspellings in the files, the product might've just launched broken and Daz told them to tidy it up.
Wow, I really wanted the new Minto character... @rarestone, I hope you bring it back!
Daz PAs have access to HD tools. I'm almost certain these 'smiles' are custom crafted HD morphs that cannot be created in Daz Studio by normal means. And if a custom HD smile is shown in a promo, and then isn't included in the product, well, then I think you're baiting the customer into buying something they can't create themselves.
Just now noticed it's not available anymore.
Glad that vendor releases new products, though! Among my favorite PAs.
And what about the long sleeved shirt with blue and white stripes? which product is it?
