"Genesis 2 Legacies for Genesis 3 Male: Heroes" Question

I'm thinking about buying this product: Genesis 2 Legacies for Genesis 3 Male: Heroes But I'm wondering about the remark in the description of the product which states "A less dense mesh in Genesis 3 means some detail gets lost in a simple morph transfer, as well as distortion in areas such as the mouth and eyes." The image results shown look fine. Was distortion somehow avoided, as by subdividing the mesh or using HD presets? I'd hate to have a close-up of a face that shows distortion. The statement that I've quoted leaves me a bit confused. I'm not trying to criticize the product. I'm just asking for more explanation before I decide if I want to buy the product or not.

That statement is referring to distortion that one would get when using the Transfer Utility to transfer a character shape from Genesis 2 to Genesis 3. The results of that process leave problems in the eye area and at the mouth, including the shapes of the eyeballs, eyelashes, eyelids, lips, and inside the mouth (teeth, etc). I have corrected those problem areas by restoring them to what they should look like, which is why the images do not show any distortion. So, in direct answer to your question, the distortion wasn't avoided, but instead corrected. You can zoom in as close to the faces as you want and they should look just great.
If you want to see some user renders with this product, you can look at the most recent images in my gallery. I rendered each of the legacy characters and a character that is a mixture of all of them. I didn't notice any distortion problem. This is a great product to give you some fast and easy morph possibilities for the new G3M. I particularly like mixing small percentages of multiple characters to make my own character shape. Then I can add some DAZ head and body morphs to tweak the shape even more. And the legacy characters have separate head and body morphs, so you can mix percentages of head and body individually.
One question, Slosh, why don't the head morphs have pictures of them on the sliders under Actor/Head/People? The body sliders do have pictures.
Thank you both, Slosh and barbult. That really did answer the question for me. The results obtained using this product really do look great. I did look at each of the images in barbult's gallery, as well as, of course, the product images by Slosh.
