Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I think they are trying to save production money by making less hair to be punched. So they push it to the back, and use the tiara to fill in the empty space.

Wow, yeah that hairline doesn’t look great I’m surprised they didn’t pick up on that. It’s unacceptable on these higher end pieces. It is fixable by them though just by punching more hair.
It will be interesting to see how they respond, and how they respond could have a big bearing on their future in the collectables market.

Infinity Studios, if you read this, please let us know this forehead issue is taken care of.




That looks completely awful. There isn’t enough hair on the front because Gal Gadot does not have a forehead like that with hairline going further back. You can tell by her movie pics. Too much $ to be look like that.

The prototype looked impressive, but a big concern with this- beyond the sticker price- was Infinity's track record. Or lack of, to be exact.

I liked this design quite a bit better than the Queen version, though that one also looked great, barring a direct comparison with this.

However, I've always had much more faith in Queen delivering something very close to what it showed.

Infinity is still an unknown quantity in many areas even beyond the physical product- like packaging, product support, etc.

Wow, that’s bad. I hate to say it. Her forehead is way too big.

I've already paid for it so made my peace.

If I get it and it is what I hoped then be the centerpiece to my Wonder Woman collection. If not...well, I actually do think I could find a buyer and recoup what I spent given how few pieces be available in the west.

By the looks of things, the Prototype appears to have a hair parting that is further to one side, and possibly more rooted hair making the forehead appear not so large. Maybe some will turn out different to others?
Also, there appears to be more eye make-up around the eyes, which looks better.
The proto appears to have lighter/browner hair.

In this commercial for the restaurants Mac'Ro, Gal Gadot boasts their latest product: a hot dog without sausage.

If disappointment continue to grow, it is not impossible that Infinity Studios will delay delivery and solve the problem first.
Hopefully you'll be happy with yours
