If it's only reviewers who are getting good final product, then I'm done.

The issue is that with those photos that you’re referring to, is that they look completely different to the ones that are on the Sugo Toys Figures & Statues Special Buys Group AUS & NZ page!
I rarely look at the normal public page, so I only saw the photos on the group one on the actual day they were originally posted, as I usually visit their page every other day.
They’ve got nearly the exact same backgrounds and yet one looks okay and the other looks like an anime doll. Almost like the photos were altered in post.
These are a couple from the group post.
So ignore the other ones as it looks like those went through some kind of weird filter.

Wow - why would they even do that? Either way, thanks. Confidence restored.

No idea. The posts were made 2 minutes apart. They are different photos between the two posts, even though they’re obviously been shot in the same room, but the angles etc are different.
I did see the weird post the next day, but because I saw the other one first I simply ignored it.
No one really makes any comments on the main public page so I have a tendency of ignoring it…not that either one receives much in the way of traffic.
I did notice your post with the url’s this morning, but I was finishing off watching Lucifer at the time, so I didn’t have the chance to clarify things earlier before others became concerned with those weird photos.

He was pretty objective in his review. I wonder if under the silicone is fiberglass. QS needs to improve the tolerances of the under structure as I think some slight distortion there resulted in widening and making the face shallow. A small distortion is going to have a huge affect to the likeness.

It looked pretty good in that review, although still far too shiny and waxy looking. I wonder how much of that is just due to the bright lights these reviewers have shining on them...

Queen have said in the past they use polystone under their silicone busts.

I don't know whether those other pics are knock offs or camera distortion but I'm just glad I didn't order this, the price and risk is too great. I wasn't even that impressed by the real final product, the likeness isn't 100 %

As far as I’m concerned not a single one of these silicone busts from either Queen or Infinity have been ‘100%’. However many are pretty close though.
I myself have always liked their early Loki and Terminator ones, but even those have been knocked by plenty of people.

Loki springs to mind as one that I can't fault
Mera looks spot on to me too
If their hathaway turns out like the proto then that's another IMO
