So are the Genesis 8 Male Anatomical Elements only included in the Michael 8 Pro bundle? If so, why? None of the other products in the bundle really interest me all that much.

Daz has always only included gens in the pro packs. The good news is though if you don't want m8 any Genesis 8 pro bundle will have elements that will fit him.
As far as I can tell they always do the anatomical elements that way - locking them behind the pro bundles. Which is why, despite buying from here for the past year and a half, I STILL don't have any anatomical elements for my characters.
I have intention of buying the M8 Pro Bundle. I just don't see the point in spending $100 for items that I don't use or for one item that I might use.
I don't agree with not including the full figure with the character base, but that is the way this store does it.
Renderotica has male gens that are designed for G8, and have a lot more customizability as well. They do tend towards the comically large though
Man. I glanced at that site and lost SAN seeing porn renders of the Dystopian drones.
May as well have furniture sex. yee.
Yeah no go for me although I would like realistic gens I don't like the hardcore stuff
Nice CoC reference!
It's probably a compromise between not having them and this site being classified an "Adult Content" site if they came with the base figure.
True. I just wished they offered more than one Pro bundle for Genesis 8. Like maybe one that includes the Head morphs, Body morphs and Facial expressions and have the naughty bits available in it too.
is the most backwards compatible figure, lol, the g3m ae on g8?
Genesis 1 had this:

which is close to what you asked for, but none of the latter releases had a similar bundle
michael 5's comes with carrara 8.5
I've tried that with mixed results. The g3m version doesn't conform to g8 very well. I may have to do some rigging transfer to try and get a better working figure. At least until Daz offers G8's in a different bundle or something.
FWIW, I've always managed to get pro bundles — and I have a good few of the G3 ones — at really deep sale discounts. Hopefully there'll be similar deals later on for the G8 bundles; I'm not in any hurry to grabemnownownow, though, all I have so far are the morph/expression packs, the rest can wait on a good sale popping up.
That's why I haven't splurged yet. Could use a good morph bundle too. Not yet ready to plunk down $14 a pack for both figures which would end up being about $84, I think.
G3M anatomy seems to work ok. I just had to make a no bulge morph for G8M so that it would fit better. Only issue I've run into so far is in the testicle area when you move his legs in any direction. It makes the mesh blow up basically in that area. I have yet to figure out what is affecting that area so that I can maybe turn off that particular morph in the anatomy figure. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Figured out what the issue is. Apparently when you conform the anatomy figure to G8M, the bones for any external anatomy that doesn't match the base figure gets eliminated. I remember encountering this issue before when I was working on figure I created myself. I'll have to go back and see what the solution was.
