I think some of that is at play here with a lot of the faces shown here at the pre-show - at least the paint and the lighting.
A digital sculpt that looks good only under certain angle and lighting is still a terrible sculpt.

Usually, company show their best product in the preview prototype stage, with it being expertly painted by hand, and when the final mass-produced product is out, it is usually a little less impressive. If it looks this bad now, there's not a lot of promise for the final product.

Once again, I'm only referring to the figures that are supposed to be real people. The rest of their lines are just fine to excellent. I'm just saying their sculpts of real people is no where close, and that is double bad considering they have excellent digital sculpts and still manage to mess that up.
