    Oh, my! I'd say there are a few things off about that one. Perhaps it was a late night for the PA. The character is interesting.

    The Pro bundle looks nice and the offer for the previous bundles is tempting. I don't have hardly any teen characters, but don't really use them (I have Tween Ryan and have never rendered him.) I do have children and teens in both of my series, but like Opheus said, the Growing Up morphs work quite well, and are more practical for what I'm doing since those characters age over the course of several books (and many years.)

    I do like the hairstyles in the bundle and more modest clothing is always good. Not sure how long this deal is good for. It's out of my price range this week.

    Now I don't feel so bad about my test render of Willa's expressions.  I messed up and somehow left off the texture on the pj pants.

    although probably the best after Ryan maybe? I don't remember this much discount on another pro....but then, I didn't get V8 or O8 pro bundles so maybe there was a better discount there if you owned previous ones?

    New pro bundle for 72% off. Have we ever had a better new release deal than this?

    What was the biggest discount there, do you remember?

    If you had already purchased 9 or more Gen 7 pro packs then Ryan pro was 90% off (that was on top of the 30% new and 30% DO discounts), so they were basically giving him away to their major buyers.

    Ah, yeah, some memories are coming back about it... laugh Okay, then this is not the best new pro-deal, after all.

     

    Elijah had a similar deal, but you only got 10% for each male pro bundle you owned (for Ryan it was male or female bundles that counted)

    72% off? That's not what I'm getting. LOL My PC coupon isn't working either. It only takes off a dollar and change....hmmmm....I feel my cart has glitches, probably because I have other free things in my cart. But I suspect it's way off. Might skip this one :).

    There's an unwritten rule that you should never use a coupon with free items. All items take away a part of the coupon, including the free items, which won't get any cheaper in the process, and thus waste the discount.

    Well then, I'll take a pass this time around. Not that difficult. I didn't want the figure so much as the content anyway. LOL

    I didn't see it right away either, but if you look at the sleeves of the dress, they don't fit with the arms. Surprising that one got past QA.

    Okay, now I see it. The dress looks like it was just parented and not auto-fit to her model.

    Wow yes. I hadn't looked up close, and thought you just found it wrong to see that little girl in IT make-up with a bit of fetish creepiness going on...

    Dang, that was a miss....My $57 cartload jumped to $243...just missed Daz Midnight.

    Anyone know if there is a good way to save a cart, so you can just open it up again when the Catchup Sale happens again?

    using the firefox browser with the scrapbook extension added works like a charm.

    I don't know what the discount was, but I got the Teen Ryan Pro Bundle for $5.95...

    Trick question: how many of the people who got that deal rendered him more than once and only bought him because of the deal?

    I put him on my wishlist, then the orange banner popped up. I've used him and items from the bundle a few times, but nothing that went beyond WIP status.

     

    jakiblue said:

    I got Kimo Pro for only $29.62. I bought Kalea earlier in the month, so there might have been some extra discount for that. Hard to remember...

    I just checked my email, and I paid $0.61 for Elijah. There was a PC+ new release in that order, too. Not sure if the new release added to the discount, but the cost for Elijah was $6.61, then I applied my PlatClub coupon...

    I think the floral print dress is fit to the figure, but the blouse sleeves are not following the arms. It's also poking through the dress and the apron. The dress also pokes through the apron a bit on the left. My first thought was the original promo didn't include the blouse, and Daz wouldn't allow something so low cut on a product for a teen figure, so the vendor added the blouse. Then I noticed the dress poking through the apron, too. So my first thought, (theory,) doesn't seem to apply. Aside from the main promo having issues, it actually looks like a nice and versatile addon, using the base UVs, with three skin materials that can be used on any G8 female, (and G3 female!)

    And I feel like I've got a lot of Gen 7 Pro bundles less expensively than Teen Josie 8. Her total discount was pretty steep... I guess maybe I've never bought a PREMIER bundle this cheap, but I've gotten Genesis 3 Pro Bundles that weren't new for a lot cheaper than this.

    I've rendered Teen Ryan more than once!

    That's 2+ more times than I have rendered probably 80% or more of my content!

    I personally felt that Ryan did add something to the male gene pool, since there was no Jayden or other teen boy. Dial Ryan in at 25%-50% and you can create a teen boy with him.

    Given that we got Josie and Belle for the girls, plus a few other teen girl like bases (Sunny, Mika etc), getting females to look a bit younger was well covered,where as for the males, it was just Ryan and the Growing Up morphs.

    They're in my signature. My books are on Amazon. The Black Kat series website is in there as well as the Midwest one (which needs updating badly.) Working on the second Black Kat book now. Hoping to have it out before the end of the year.

    Wow, that's not very long. The other offers (V8, O8, M8) lasted for about 2 weeks.

    Is it just me, or is the additional 20% discount on Featured Artist Catalogs not working when you add a Debut New Release (ie. TJ8 Pro Bundle) and 2 items from the Featured Artist Catalogs?

    The offer for Featured Artist Catalogs is this:

    "Buy any combination of items from Debut New Releases, Still New Releases, Daily Spotlight, or Featured Artist Catalogs¥ to get:
    40% OFF for 1 OR 50% OFF* for 2 or more

    Put any Debut New release in your cart to get an EXTRA 20% OFF¥* Featured Artist Catalogs".

    The Featured Artist Catalogs appear to be stuck at 50%, the extra 20% off is not being applied as expected...

    reported Actually, it is working - are you sure you didn't do what I ddi and grab a 40% off item from your WL that was a spotlight item, not a featured PA?

    I'm not seeing this, but I've only got items from two PAs, Bitwelder and Tentman.

    Hey, Richard! (Or any Daz mod watching this thread.)

    Lantios Daylight & Nighttime Bundle was added to the Freebies section last turnover. It's still showing there, but with a 70% discount as it's now also in Fast Grab.

    Oops. laugh
