    I cannot see the $2.20 section on my Android nor on my PC, but it was there just a few minutes ago. Was no longer there when I had gone back to the Leroy sale page. And really nice work on the new guy. Love the pro bundle.

    No 2.20 stuff on my Samsung S8+, either. And man, this release schedule...it's a little rich for my blood. I'm not sure how likely I am to get him. I also wonder what provision they'll make in the future when they have people who have no more bundles they can grab free. I only have 1 left in the G8 line because I had no use for Toon Dwayne.

    Nice character. What I also like but can't seem to find is the hair in the background of one of the promos - the hair on the basketball player below. Can anyone identify it, by any chance? Thanks!

     

    I think this one https://www.daz3d.com/killmonger-hair-and-beard-for-genesis-3-and-8

    Thanks Wonderland. I did look at Kilmonger hair but the braids in Kilmonger seem very round and thick all the way to the end, whereas this one has braids that get more wispy and uneven on the end. It also seems to include braids that originate lower on the head whereas the Kilmonger hair has origins focusing on the top part of the head (though it does hang down). However, since it's not really part of Leroy maybe I should take this to a separate thread rather than distracting here!

    Unfortunately, it's in a scrolling banner, so there's no separate page.

    I'm wondering if Adblock settings might be in play here?  Just a theory.  If the Adblock is reading this as 'extra ads' that could be a reason for the items not being displayed.  That's probably not the case here, but it's a thought...

    No 2.20 deal on iphone, just skips straight to the bundle here. Showing up normally on windows/firefox (where I took advantage of the sale, too!).

    Thanks - yes Shaved Side Dread looks like a good match!

    After the fiasco with Dain 8 clothes, now I'm worried about the quality of the stuff for Leroy. On that note, where is the black leather jacket, the aviator glasses, and the letter-jacket?  I'm getting kind of tired of the products getting introduced with a LOT of really cool promos that are 90% unavailable.  But there is some really nice fantasy stuff and that always gets me.  That and realistic, assuming it's actually something I can buy!

    If you sort the products in the store by Price Low>High you can view them (or at least some of them, not sure if it's all, as I don't see any link to the items either). For me, I have to skip ahead to page 33 to get clear of the $1.99 PC items, but that would vary from person to person depending on how much you own. Not the easiest way to have a look, but it works for now.

     

    Edit: It's showing up for me now.

    And I really wish they'd go back to adding the HD pack into the Pro Bundle.  That's my Instant-Buy trigger, especially for characters that really depend on it.

    Leroy 8 is a good looking character. I think the Golf Outfit is a swing and a miss. The collar area isn't done to match its real world counterpart. A straight hem is okay, but I think a split longer back hem would look better. I think the Hudson outfit turtleneck and pants look like they might be good, but the sportcoat would take a lot of custom texturing to make it look decent. There are no seams and it doesn't fit like a real jacket. It might be easier to make it look like a cardigan sweater.

    I wonder if he's going to get a themed bundle tomorrow like CJ 8 and Dain 8. I don't care too much for the Starter and Pro bundles since I can kitbash something similar already.

    Leroy 8 and Lewis HD look great! Definitely going into my cart. Some of the outfits could be done with more thought, however they are on the mark with the styles that I have been wanting for my male characters. Yes daz has been churning these base bundles out, however if the look and quality is there for me, I don't mind. Would rather have Leroy 8 today than in April or July. Plus, this is not Pokemon, I don't need to collect them all. Dain 8 starter and pro bundle was a pass for me, because majority of the characters and outfits were poorly done. So for bundles like those, I would by the core character or pick and choose single products. No need to buy garbage products just because its at a great price, and lets me have the money buy the good stuff when they show up (since with daz you never know, it could be the next month, week, or day).

    I have an iPhone 6 and checked both Safari and Google Chrome, and no $2.20 offer. But on my iPad Pro using Google Chrome the offer does show up.

    Anyone else on an iPad Air 2, iOS 13.3 that can verify if you can see the section on the 2.20 items on the Leroy 8 page?

    I can't see it on my android phone (using google chrome), but I can on my PC using firefox.

    It's a nice figure, looks slightly less over-buffed than Dain, though still a bit too buff. Not just for my tastes, but compared to avarage people I see around me (collegues, neighbours, friends, etc.) So I maintain that Ollie has the proportionally most realistic body of all G8 males, with Mr Woo and Floyd coming in at a close second and third. Problem with the two latter being, that they're basically of pensioner age.

    I immediately went to the File List in the Read Me to verify that one particular PA was NOT in the files. Once I did that, I looked at the offerings. And then I noticed a normal bundle with regular PAs, real store pages with data provided and details. Only then did I notice the purple banner. Daz, I am afraid this may be my reaction from now on, it will take awhile to regain my trust.

    That said, I am filling my cart with the Pro Bundle, add-ons, and the additional content offered below. But I have all of the Bundles or the ones I want, there are two G3F bundles I won't take even free. 

    I do want to commend whomever decided to reflect an African American male who looks like the professionals that I saw every day during my adult life, especially during my military career.

    Oh man I love him, I probably should've waited on Dain.

    I initially held off on Dain because the bundle looked so bad, reasoning that sooner or later I’d be able to get the same incentives attached to products I actually wanted. Now, that’s happened. Of course, I ended up buying the Dain bundle anyway, so now I can get the same deal on Leroy.

    I like Leroy. But it's expensive for what you get. That seems to be the new norm now. Yes I have the purple banner giving me all kinds of stuff but I have tons of stuff already. I'd rather have the bundle at a lower price and forget about the extras that I don't need. Into the wishlist for now.

    Never was in the bundles, but a few times they have it away with the bundle purchase during the intro sales.

    I like him, and like the pro bundle content, but I liked enough characters and hair to get the Dain pro bundle this week... So I can only wait and hope this deal somehow stretches to the 15th. I think this is the first time I've had this problem with two male bundles released this close together.

    Ollie and Edie pro bundles both come with the HD addon, but I remember hearing people didn't like it because it takes up an item space that could be filled by a more flexible item. A giveaway did decide me on buying Sanjay at launch, though. laugh

    Yeah this new pro bundle bundle every week thing is exhausting.  Sure, it's a new month...

    I was good with 2 pro bundles a month, just sayin.  Don't look a gift horse in the mouth, though.

     

    A couple of the outfits don't look all that detailed, and the addon pick selection seems a bit slim.  Hopefully this isn't a repeat of what happened with Dain 8...

    At least Daz posted a '48 hour warning' with the $2.20 items this time!

    It's nice to see them, but I have enough dudes: two or three I think. And how many pairs of jeans, t-shirts, and footwear does a guy wear? :)

    Floyd and Mabel, too. But then, maybe it made more sense to include them for those characters, since they had such unusual (for Daz) shapes with lots of small details.

    As far as people complaining about the HD addon being included in the pro bundles, that just makes no sense to me. I wish the pro bundles were a little more a la carte, so you could choose from a menu of add-ons rather than whatever they decide to put in there at launch. For example, I'd gladly trade the pose packs for an HD add-on.
