I only unpacked the boxes themselves and opened one to see what extra material was included and that everyting looked intact. They're like TINY but all the extras seemed to be there! (Stand, several pairs of hands, props)

Have you done any figure posing yet?
Do they look natural or rather stiff?
Does the stand work well and do you really need it to balance them?
And many more questions...

oh uhm... well, I've unpacked them
The female figure is missing a couple of hand poses (and instead had a couple of duplicates of the same hand pose) and the male had a somewhat wobbly stand, though I could fix that by just tightening the screws.

There are both "just a plug" you put in the back of the figure and a "grip" (2 actually) that you can add to the stands. The just a plug one doesn't work too well in some poses as the figure will fall off if it points downwards But they can also stand on their own if balanced. Overall they seem to be fairly good for sketching poses from, not that I've actually tried yet

Poser Pro 11 is currently on sale until the 17th of July at 40% off full and upgrade licenses. They have had a few of these sales over the last few months, so I'm guessing the next version is probably on it's way.
