I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

I believe they use smooth-on platinum silicone which is pretty much the best you can get.

I do hope so, would make no sense if they did not but a lot of people say they use their own silicone product

There was a discussion about this on one of their Fb pages. For the life size Wonder Woman bust they used silica gel which hasn’t got a great lifespan. Seems they changed to medical grade silicone for all their other busts produced after that one.

Seriously?

Infinity was a largely unknown company when they previewed WW and the others.
Even before the pre-orders came, the grade of material they were using was an expressed concern by everyone seriously contemplating it.
The line then was that, like Queen, they were using the best available with an estimated 30 yr lifespan.

Not cool for the people that have this on order.

Of course at this point ANY of these companies could just outright lie about what they are using and it would be ten + years before they ever get called on it.
By that time they'd easily get away with it and blame it on old management.

Yep, I heard that's why the prices have increased so much for the newer busts.
