Ally 9 Character Bundle | Daz 3D
Kayla 9 HD Character Bundle | Daz 3D
These are my 2 options for my free Premier bundle coupon. I'm really torn about these 2 as, in reality, I'm not into either one of them, but I'm going to use my coupon. My membership expires in 3 days so the possibility of something else being added to the available bundles is pretty slim. I bought the new The Velvet Plunder Character Bundle | Daz 3D bundle and the brewery at $0.00 using my 8 tokens and $10 DO Premier coupon. I have no use for fruity characters.
So anyway, what are your preferences of the 2 bundles. I like the character Kayla and the hair, although she really doesn't give much extra to all the rest of characters I have, and in the other bundle there are 2 clothing sets that would be ok to have. the character seems too young and cartoony to me. Free is free otherwise.

I am in the same situation. There is so little choice with only 8 bundles *at most*. As I mentioned elsewhere, I am close to choosing among my 7 unowned bundles based on hair! I am lukewarm on both Ally & Kayla as I don't really need more teen girls and both seem equally stylized, at least in some promos. But they both look sweet and suited for less dark fantasies or even teen superheroes.
Well, maybe we'll get lucky and Daz will add a few more bundles before the weekend.
Kayla 9 morphs and textures are countless times more detailed than Ally's. Personally I like Kayla's bundle braid too. Nothing in Ally is appealing to me.
Kayla's woodland cape and gloves from the Woodland Fantasy Outfit are nice fairytale clothing imo. The Ally bundle outfits have less common modern accessories like the gun holsters from Sassy Shorts Outfit and headphones, jacket, backpack from Casualwear Style Outfit.
I got the Ally 9 bundle as the second bundle in the anniversary sale, so I might be biased. I like both characters almost equally. I like the shape/morph for Ally 9 a bit more, but the Skin for Kayla 9 looks well done for darker skin which is a big plus. So for me if looking at both bundles, Ally 9 has more useful content than Kayla 9.
I doubt I would ever use the outfit that comes with Kayla 9. Maybe the cape in a kit bash, but the dress just doesn't feel "right" to me, and I already have much better options for shoes/heels and stockings. The hair with the Kayla 9 bundle I would definitely use, and the HD morphs I would use too.
The outfits with the Ally 9 bundle have a much greater chance of being used. In fact, I'm working on a render right now that uses the shoulder holsters from the Sassy Shorts Outfit (I have other options for the holster, but this one just fits the image better, and the quality is quite good, but lacking a lot of adjustment morphs). The other outfit will also work well for kit bashing. The hair I will most likely use. I probably wouldn't use it with the pigtails, but there is an option for the hair with no pigtails, and I really like it without them. The makeup give a couple of options that I'll probably use as well.
Summary/TLDR; So, looking at both bundles, there is more content that I either definitely would or probably would use with the Ally 9 Bundle than with the Kayla 9 Bundle, making it a better value for me.
@daveso Thanks for mentioning that you were able to get the new The Velvet Plunder Character Bundle | Daz 3D bundle and the brewery at $0.00 using your 8 tokens and $10 DO Premier coupon. I still have my $10.00 coupon available, so I can do the same (I think it will cost me $0.59), and get the Kayla 9 Character Bundle as my November free bundle (I just wish it had something other than the Woodland Fantasy Outfit).
They are about the same, I bought the Kayla 9 Bundle though and not the Ally 9 Bundle. It could of easily been the reverse had their release sequence been reversed. Go with the bundle whose addons are more generally useful for you.
There's still two more weeks on the coupon. I'm just waiting.
THINK i'LL WAIT ON kAYLA BUNDLE. i CAN ALWAYS BUY THE HAIR OR HER WHEN ON BETTER SALE AND WHEN i RENEW Premier. Yeah, that dress just isn't cutting it for me. The overall bundle is somewhat lacking. At least Ally I like the short shorts set and the urban looking set. I didn't realize the hair can have the tails hidden..yeah, I like that much better.
Ally 9 bundle it is. Thanks
I'm going to hold out a little longer in case another bundle is introduced. I bought both Kayla and Ally characters without the bundles.
I waited on Kayla which is now missing from the bundle coupon selection. My only option now is Valenia
Two full everyday type outfits, including shoes and some other usefull accessories, in the Ally bundle, vs only one outfit of a very specific genre style in the Kayla bundle. If neither charcter floats your boat more than the other, I'd say the Ally bundle is far more likely to prove useful in the long run.
well, Kayla is now out of the bundle choices and is full price. $90. She's a hard pass at this time
