$24.95? Not so much

March 3rd, 2008

Perfect example of their random price structure. $24.95 “real” price but MADNESS price is $1.75. The real madness is anyone paying $24.95 for a mesh squirrel that doesn’t even morph into any other kind of squirrel, or a chipmunk, or anything. Please.

As MyTodd would say - For $24.95 that squirrel better suck my dick.

A cute little fuzzy Squirrel will be hoarding nuts and snacks in your renders soon.

Don’t be afraid to make this little guy the focus of your scene - you’ll find 16 expression and phoneme morphs to fit the bill.

High quality texture maps and nine included poses help make the DAZ Squirrel lifelike and animated.

Also, I think they mean “phenome” but hey, who’s spell-checking?

    The really sad thing is I couldn’t bring myself to pay $1.75 for it …. and I could’ve taken that out of my monthly $5 voucher.

    I bought it for the $1.75. (For $24.95 it had better come to my house and do the laundry.) I also bought the DM thing that looks just like every other DM thing. I passed on the rest of the Madness.

    I actually bought it too - but get this for why. I misread their ad copy about the Sub-D stuff and I thought you had to buy the squirrel to get the upgraded Sub-D package for Studio (when actually they were saying that you get an upgraded squirrel)

    It says a lot about DAZ’s marketing tactics that it didn’t surprise me to think that I’d have to buy a squirrel to get the software I wanted.

      thing called loving

      and the other feels nothing
      I would have done anything for you
      I still love you, baby I adore you
