    I take it that all the pre-2016 products valid with the Christmas coupon won't get double-listed in the 2016/2017 top seller lists, right? I was planning on buying the Leo 7 Pro but they removed it from the 2016 holiday top seller list. The price went up from $27 to $90. Even a $30 discount will only drop it to around $60.

    It shows up for $66 or 51% off when I put in my cart and that is before the $30 off.

    Oh, you're right. The price drops to $66 if you also have a new release in your cart. That $66 ($36 with the coupon) is still higher than $27 I skipped hoping for a better sale. sad

    hmm Sakura - didn't see her coming! 

    anyone getting an extra discount? No orange banner and nothing in messages either.

    I wonder why they didn't just name her Aiko, she's just like the original ones...

  • I wonder why they didn't just name her Aiko, she's just like the original ones...

    because then she would need her Hiro heart to partner her in the great DAZ gender unbalance 

  • I wonder why they didn't just name her Aiko, she's just like the original ones...

    I think Sakura is a bigger attempt to look anime than the early Aiko. https://www.daz3d.com/aiko-3-0-starter-pack

    *wears tinfoil hat*

    On a marketing perspective, calling her Aiko would "force" DAZ to give away the old four pro bundles j(Aiko 4, Aiko 5, Aiko 6, Aiko 7) ust to make the Pro bundle have the same promo like the other base G8 figures. At least with Sakura name they have an excuse and the figure is much closer to Keiko style-wise.

    uh @CrisPalomino maybe a quick message to daz asking if they really did mean to have this as the one and only promo? https://www.daz3d.com/long-pigtail-anime-hair Cos boy, that is NOT making me want to buy that hair.

    Wow - uhhh, that's not very flattering I have to say.

    oh and this one is missing its main promo... https://www.daz3d.com/anime-bun-hair-for-genesis-8-female-s

    Wait. The Sakura 8 Pro Bundle product page only shows 9 products with thumbnails/pictures but the product description has 11 products. Which one is correct?

    I have reported it.

    I don't think all of the products in the bundle are showing because Sakura herself isn't even listed as one of the products in the bundles yet. At least, not on the sale pages I've seen. The base figure should show up in both bundles and she isn't yet. Give it time, I'm sure they'll fix it.

    Thanks. I'll probably just wait a little bit before buying her.

    Both reported.  I believe it is the 11 products listed since one is in the main promo, the long pigtails, and the other seems to be the Sakura figure itself.

  • Yeah, I'm seeing reports in another thread that she isn't available for download if the bundle was purchased. At this point, I'd say that is a mistake because the base figure is always in the bundles. I'm sure it will get fixed soon.

    I have confirmed in the Sakura 8 thread that the base Sakura 8 is not in my DIM or product page, but it is supposed to be part of the Pro bundle.

    UPDATE: Sakura 8 base now available to download.

    So, is there supposed to be any kind of extra discount offer for people who own Callie 6 Pro and/or Keiko 6 Mega Bundle?

     

    And on a side note...
    Why is it that if you buy the Base Sakura 8 you get both Keiko 6 Mega Bundle and Callie 6 Base for free...

    But, if you buy Sakura 8 Starter you get nothing (Not even the starter bundles for Keiko and Callie)?

    DAZ has not been offering promos for some of the starter bundles. If I remember correct, this was the same with Charlotte and some other G8 figure. While I always buy the pro bundles, they should at least offer the same for those who only want to buy the starter bundles and base figures.

  • Sakura bundle should be fixed, hair promo, too. Customer's libraries as well.

  • Looks like pigtails promo thumb may be missing on the bundle page still...have reported.

  • jakibluejakiblue Posts: 7,281

    It's possible those curly wisps are PART of the texture.

    Yes, that's what I mean by flattened. And they are. And the UV on the pigtails is mirrored so it stands out really badly. Looking forward to some texture love for this hair as I do like the style.

  • jakibluejakiblue Posts: 7,281

    Ah! sorry i misunderstood. I thought you were saying like the wisps were separate hairs and they had been flattened instead of sticking out. LOL.

    Also, the bottom of the pigtails is poking into her hip/thigh. :sigh:

    I wonder what the movement morphs are like - can her pigtails swing right out like she is running? Can you shorten the length any? Do her bangs/fringe move out like a breeze is blowing them?
