G9 core characters

Hey everyone, does anyone know what's happening? It's been weeks since any G9 core characters were released on DAZ. 🤔🤔🤔They used to drop roughly every two weeks.

There is "usually" a gap in September during the PA Sale, with no Core Characters releases, which may have made sense when Premier did not exist.

In 2022–2023, G9 Characters were released mostly every 7–14 days.
There were also a few gaps of 3 to 5 weeks.

In 2024, the schedule shifted closer to one character every 2 weeks.
Most figures were released weekly. A few took 21 days.

There was a 42 day gap between Toshi 9 (Aug 30) and Vicky 9 (Oct 11).
Premier did not exist yet during that gap.

Premier launched in October 2024.
From then on, subscribers received one Character Bundle coupon every month.

In 2025, releases were usually 14 days apart.
There was a 35 day gap between Bishop 9 (Aug 28) and Audrey 9 (Oct 2).

This gap happened with Premier already active.
A Premier subscriber could receive a monthly Character Bundle coupon, but there was no new G9 Core Character for 35 days. Instead, there were some PA Character Bundles eligible for the coupon during the PA Sale.

In 2026, the schedule became much more regular.
From Wendy 9 (Jan 15) to Frankie 9 (May 21), every release was exactly 14 days apart.

There was then a 21 day gap before Sydney 9 (Jun 11).
After that, releases returned to roughly 14 day intervals.

Isabella 9 was released on Aug 27, 2026.
As of Oct 2, 2026, there has been no new G9 Core Character for 36 days.

This is particularly relevant under Premier:
one monthly Character Bundle coupon + no new character for more than a month = fewer opportunities to use that benefit on new content, especially for customers who already own the older eligible characters or simply don't like the ones being offered that month.

Last year they made 3 Character Bundles eligible to use the Premier coupon during the PA sale, which were two stock dolls and whatever that thing is:

This year no bundle was made eligible, because I don't know what the fuck happened with customer consideration or whatever.

Nothing replaces a good G9 character anyways.

Thanks for the reply Paca, like you said "Nothing replaces a good G9 character anyways." hope they come back soon.
