I have used Daz in the past and after more then a year i plan on coming back. I know how to model things a lot better now and i can retopologize any thing.

What I need is Aiko and Hiro models that i can change the face like using morphs. ( To make many Characters in no time. )
I am looking to make anime characters with the largest amount of freedom in customization
Example:
I get Gen 4 Iconic Shapes for Genesis. Then use morphs to get the new faces that I want. My main question is, What morphs things should i get and is Gen 4 Iconic Shapes what i want. Genesis. or Genesis 2?

any recommendations?

    For Generation 4 figures, including Aiko 4 and Hiro 4, there is a package called Morphs++, which contains many head and body morphs. Aiko 4 is a morph of Victoria 4, and Hiro 4 is a morph of Michael 4, so you would need Morphs++ for each of the base characters (V4 and M4)

    The Iconic shapes for Genesis (original) would also give you the A4 and H4 shape in the Genesis model, and then there are the Genesis Evolution Head and Body Morphs which would do a similar job to Morphs++ on the base Genesis figure. http://www.daz3d.com/genesis-evolution-morph-bundle

    There is also this for Genesis 2 Male
    http://www.daz3d.com/generation-4-legacy-shapes-for-genesis-2-male for generation 4 shapes (Hiro 4)
    And this
    http://www.daz3d.com/generation-5-legacy-shapes-for-genesis-2-male for generation 5 shapes (Hiro 5)

    So, there are a number of ways to go about this, Genesis can use the A3/H3 OR A4/H4 Iconic Shapes for Genesis, and in conjunction with the Evolution bundle, should get you a lot of different faces and bodies. You can do the same thing, more or less, by using Genesis 2 Female for the A4 shape, and Genesis 2 Male for the H4 shape. There is also a A5 and H5 figure for G2F and G2M respectively.

    Aiko 6 was recently released, and she is a morph of Genesis 2 Female, but there is no Hiro 6 as yet, but it may be released soon.

    Hope that helps a bit at least.

    Will all of this work for the iClone5 Facial Pipeline Power Bundle. and can you point me in to the right direction for a tutorial or demo video to show it going to Autodesk Maya or 3ds Max or Mudbox. It looks like there is a way and I am searching youtube right now for such a thing. I have not found it yet.

    Edit:

    I am mainly concerned with the face rig and animation.

    I'm sorry, I don't use iClone or any of the other packages you mentioned.

    You may need to wait a little while for an answer.
