Hey, did I ever tell you guys about the time I got to pet a lion? Well it was pretty awesome.
Oh hey, did I ever tell you about the time I pet a cheetah? You should have been there, it was great.
Did I mention at some point in my life I pet a tiger? Yup its true.

To commemorate these moments in my life, DAZ 3D TimeLife division is releasing the commemorative Big Cat 2. You can join in the fun and purchase the Big Cat 2 for 9 easy payments of $9.99.

But wait, there's more. Browse through this thread and we'll make not one, not three but TWO payments for you. Making the total cost only 7 easy payments or $12.99

Please note that prices listed in this thread will do not reflect the actual price of the Big Cat 2.
Please also note that I really did pet a tiger and a lion and a cheetah, and I feel like we should acknowledge that.

**Edit** I've moved this thread to the commons rather than start a new discussion thread. The DAZ Big Cat 2 has officially launched and is available here: http://www.daz3d.com/daz-big-cat-2

Feel free to continue your regularly scheduled discussion, ask questions etc.

    Jared... I think I love you *grins* these are amazing !

    Have to ask though, will there be a snow leopard? and perhaps a white tiger too? Och and the real fur for Look at My Hair, is not a requirment to use these cats is it? Cause I still haven't got the free player to work without crashing Daz, and well.. not willing to pay for a program when the fre version work like that :)

    LAMH is only required for the real fur product for Big Cat 2.

    These look so pretty, I especially love the cheetah!
    I pet an Amour panther once.
    She had cubs and it did not like me very much (it scratched me, but it was her right to do so).
    I am going to drop a naughty question here: will there be an upgrade from the Mil house cat as well?

    If I'd were to pay upfront, are you willing to toss in a free scratching pole?

    Greetings,
    I knew these guys who raised a lion cub in their apartment in Silicon Valley. Once he got to a certain size, they worked with a exotic animal range in northern California to have him live there, and they went and volunteered every weekend to be able to visit him. A real sweetheart, but it was still disconcerting to go visit them and have this...lion cub, curled up on the floor in front of the TV with them.

    They also briefly (a few weeks) watched after a young female leopard, again in their apartment, but she was MUCH more fierce than their lion. A real firecracker, and very willing to do harm if she got upset, which was often.

    This set looks gorgeous, and I can't wait to see what folks do with it!

    Oh wow, I have high hopes that this is just the beginning for up grades to the Millennium dog and house cat :D but that is just my big dreams no idea mind you of what is coming down the path.

    Will there be a mountain lion included? This set will be mine regardless but just curious.

    As a side note I was able to pet a Mountain lion once she was almost full grown and a big sweet heart and she was just purring. I asked my dad if I could have one and he just gave me a look like I was an idiot lol (I was almost 18 at the time and so knew better than to ask that question lol), but it is an experience I will never forget.

    This is awesome, so very much needed.

    Has the LAMH player been updated, the last time I tried to do anything with it was crashing again.

    I think the skin texture will be released as a separate product.

    Why do I have the sinking feeling that these kitties, like the Horse 2, are going to be Studio only with, if we are lucky, DSON Import into Poser? :sigh:

    I hate to think you're right Byrdie, but I suspect you are. Too bad too, as big game cats are a favorite of mine.

    If they are NOT going to be DS 4.6 only Jared, could I request a Snow Leopard texture too? I happen to like them better than the African Leopard textures everyone is so used to seeing.

    Big kitties!

    Definitely looking forward to LAMH presets, all we need is the new LAMH version to use them on...

    Will this fix the dodgy-looking paw/toe and the weird leg bends in the old MBC? I was never really able to get it to sit properly with its hind legs folded anything like the real critter does it.
