So they won’t use the platinum Silicone? The Wonder Woman bust may be my last with them. Too expensive to use cheap silicone.


Who wants a bust that ages like a real person?

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

But that makes a bust with which you can share possible problems of loss of teeth, glaucoma, alopecia etc...

I guess I'll know in 2041 how the glue works on repairs.
They could have made a deluxe version by adding a glue tube.

Are we sure Queen is using Platinum? I was looking on their page and didn't see a mention of it.

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

I believe they might have stated that verbally. Perhaps you can reach out to Queen Studios to get confirmation.

I would think if they are using Platinum it would be posted next to the product description, as good selling point.

I'll move my comments to the Queen thread.

I understand the concerns, but honestly do we really know how this bust will look in twenty, thirty, forty years? Do we have a comparable piece by anyone made in the 1990s.

It could be tiny minor imperfections that are easily fixed to maintain the look or it could be full on degradation.

Science. The Platinum silicone doesn't degrade as fast as regular silicone, that's why Platinum is medical grade.
