Just a note here--I read the posts about the hands--I just checked both my right and left hand of Michael and I have no problems whatsoever--I did a VERY closeup of them, bent them, grasped, twisted, etc. I found no problems at all--in fact, was pretty impressed with how lifelike they look from the top and inside-texture wise (like Vicky's but 'manly'). I also have had no problems with the black lines and I have used all 3 available textures. If anyone remembers, there was a problem with the skirt from the clothing pak for Vicky--some of us had problems with it--many did not. I happen to remember because I was one that Zygote had test their various remedies. This may be one of those problems--that only a few have a problem and I know they will address it. I remember that they were unable to reproduce 'my' problem on the skirt, so this may be the case with Michael. I have found him to be almost flawless so far. Oh, the eyes--not being able to 'point at'--forgot that one G--thanks Scott. Overall, I just haven't found any problems with this model yet. Diane B
