    He looks like a a baby boy, Aiko 7 looks older that her previoous generation so I have no idea what he's impression is suppose to be. Can anyone render Aiko 7 and Kenji 7 together? I want to see if they actually go well to together.

    Kenji 7 is the new "Hiro"...I approve. :)

    Um... but I thought there wasn't going to be a Hiro anymore?

    How does changing his name make him not Hiro?

    Makes me hold out hope there will be a David by some other name and a male teen.

    Thanks for the extra 40% off, I would have bought those Chuck Taylor's by IH Kang anyway! Best Chuck model since Billy-T's original Canvas Sneaker for M3.

    Anyone know what horns he is sporting in the promos? They don't look like the others I found in the store.

    The horns belong to the outfit:

    I like a fair amount of male content included with Kenji, however I'm going to have to study the promos. I've been burned a lot with poorly made male clothing and I don't like returning stuff so I'm going to look at the promos closer and see how the belts and acccesories behave when rendered.

     I don't however like teen or boy characters so I'm passing on his figure.. I tend to find anime figures too youthful. I like older men, who look physically mature.

    So, for a character who isn't hiro, he sure fills the hiro niche.

    I wonder if the name was changed because Hiro pairs better with Hitomi (because they both have an H, an I and an O - I'm sophisticated!)

    I keep trying to call Kenji Keiko so I'm surprised they didn't make Kenji be a male Keiko and call Aiko's guy something else (Akira or something.)

  • Serene NightSerene Night Posts: 17,704

    I do wish he had more hair. The last few male characters only bring 2 hairs to the male hair pool, and I always buy the hairs. Genesis 3 males seem to not get nearly as many hairs as gen 6 males did. Or maybe my memory is faulty. But the last few figures have only had 2.

    Here's a quick side by side of Aiko7 and Kenji7 using just the base figures and Render Studio scene lighting. Stopped the render at 75% and no postwork. I think they look good together.

    Thanks for that render! They do look good together.

    Planning on getting him. As soon as I do and have him downloaded, will the 50-50 mix renders like from the Aiko 7 thread be useful to anyone?

  • BurstAngelBurstAngel Posts: 763

    He still looks younger than Aiko, but at least they work well together, thanks for the render, it convinced me to actually be pleased with him. But I have to honest, I was doing cartwheels when Guy 7 came out. He looked amazing. Kenji seem so vanilla.

    I'll get the pro bundle at the end of next week on payday. I'm so desparate for male content that bundles are best way to get anything. Only way you'll get male hair is if there is a major male release. Because of the lack of diverse male clothing, I'm more interested in the clothes that can be kitbash with other outfits. When dealing with men's clothes, versatility is a must. So any renders of peices of the new outfits would be appreciated.

    Aiko 7's been robbin' the cradle, yo. That image looks like it could be out of the next Final Fantasy.

    I do think there is an age disparity. Aiko looks mature to me and Kenji does not.

    David's new name is Denise.  That's one way to up your popularity here at DAZ @o@  

    And it's been stated elsewhere that there IS a YOUNG male teen in the Pipeline, so I'm expecting a Justin replacement rather than a Brodie or Jayden.

    They look fantastic together.  :)  Well done.

    Justin got named to Ryan (no idea why.) There have been a few outfits and hairs lately with Tween Ryan 7 fits.

    Hmmm...

    It seems I don't love Kenji so much. Give me back my Hiro, I think! :p

    It's Aiko's hair color; that greyish shade of blonde (I think) does make her look older, but her face still looks young to me.

    Love how Kenji looks...I think much better than Hiro.  I also liked the 2 hair that came with the pro-bundle.  With the purchase of the mercenary soul poses, I got Kenji's Pro Bundle for only $37 bucks. 

     

    Edited: replaced the name "David" for Hiro

    I want to know about that spark he's got between his hands.  I don't see it in any of the related products, though there's some other sparks in a few of the other promos.  Anyone know where it came from?

  • jardinejardine Posts: 1,215

    he does look good.  but he looks more like her nephew than her contemporary to me...

    ***

    and no discount on his pro bundle for aiko 7 pro purchasers?  the discount they are offering is sweet, certainly, but i wish daz would be consistent about this kind of thing.  i'm not sure i would have shelled out for the aiko 7 pro bundle if i hadn't expected (not without precedent) that i'd also be getting a discount on her companion's release...

    Great image!!! Looks like the opening to a movie, just messing about before a giant tentacled being rises from the floor, KOs them after a fight then they wake up in a camp ready for training to be warriors to save the world they inhabit!

    Hopefully these will be helpful to someone. 50-50s of the iconic boys with Kenji, all with Kenji's skin.

    Thank you, flower fire~ I always get jealous when you do all these comparisons because it'd take me forever to do that many renders >.<

  • hphoenixhphoenix Posts: 1,335

    I like Kenji.  But the lack of a discount for having purchased Aiko 7 is dissapointing.  Without that, I'm on the fence about buying him.  I really want to go with the pro bundle, but without that extra discount, I may have to settle for the starter.

     

    Almost every paired character in the last year has offered a discount on the 'partner' for purchasing the first one.  Now I have to re-think whether or not to purchase the Pro Bundle.  *sigh*

    Wow, thanks, Hanabi. I had no interest in him until I saw those mixes. The Gianni one kind of looks like Keanu Reeves!

    <3 I live to serve! And when I get a better video card (my 970 is only a 4gb card, boo), I'll sell you my current one at a steep discount.

    Well, George isn't iconic, but here you go! (The pose could definitely have used some tweaking, though, lolol)
