Duplicate figure in same scene.

Inside of DAZ I have created a runner figure (Darius).
I have clothed him, posed him, texture is ok.
The scene I wish to create is a running race, I need three figures.
I wish to take the figure I have created, triplicate him and make each figure unique.
Now.
Have to mention this will be rendered in Keyshot.
How can I create duplicate figures in DAZ, closest I have come and that works is node
instance, but I have to change the pose, etc slightly.
I would prefer to create all three in DAZ at the same time to coordinate pose etc and then export.
Thank you.

    Select your figure to duplicate, then from the menu bar, select one of

    Many thanks but problem, created figure used clothing props such as shorts, shirts, shoes, etc.
    Wish to duplicate whole figure ( with clothes),
    In keyshot will adjust color, style, fit of clothing, plus textures.
    But need to duplicate and position whole figure at first.
    Duplicate node is only giving me the actual figure, if I group the original and then duplicate.
    only the figure is duplicated.
    Thank you

    Make sure everything is parented to the figure - by default fitted clothes already will be - then duplicate the node hierarchy instead of just the node.

    Worked like a charm, thank you both very much.

    To give you an idea of the final result ( WIP)

    They all have the exact same pose unfortunatly

    Duplicates will be separately posable, though they will start with the pose of the duplicated item of course. Instances and Geometry Shells are not posable.
