Bald Eagle by AM | Daz 3D
I have all the eagle products from DAZ, but I have to say, this one might just be a cut above the others? Very realistic, as far as I can see from the promo images.What do you guys think? Any noticable problems? 
This looks to be one of few products I buy upon release anymore. Most I just throw into the wishlist and wait for the big discount. Right now with the initial 65% off stacker discount and 8 coupons its at 75% off, which I can accept for a new release.

    It's kind of hard to tell with how much selective bluring is done in the promos, but it's body proportions feel a bit off and from what I can see through the blurs,  the head feathers lack the ruffling that gives BE's so much character.  It's definitely better than either of the old DAZ eagles, but there are pluses and minuses when compared to Deepsea's eagle, which also scores points for having the option of a great golden Eagle texture option (GE's are found over the entire northern hemisphere whereas BEs are strictly North American birds) as well as custom aniblocks.  Given how often most people will probably need an eagle, I think versaltility of use is really the key issue, though, really, in that case I have to think that Ken Gilliand's comprehensive Birds of Prey sets over at Rendo still trump all of the DAZ contenders, as those are the only ones that give you the option of something other than the Bald Eagle and Golden Eagles.

    I'm hoping AM will bring out some more variations of his eagle. I have bought it but I won't be using it in my current scene setting, I'll be using Deepsea's Golden Eagle instead.

    It looks nice but someone just reported a duplicate formula error from this product... folks may hang on for a while ~~

    That is something new.

    I have never heard about duplicate formula error coming from the other items than various Genesis 9/8 characters.

    I don't get a Duplicate Formula warning.

    The OP said the issue came from 2025 Alpha, when opening a saved scene with this eagle. Not sure if the issue also happened to DS 4.24 ~~

    I have just been reminded of this Nikon Comedy Award entry for 2024:

    It's one that could be replicated in DS now...
