I think you are fine... Here is a similar angle of the original... Has the same bent look.

The boot's shape plus Batman's muscular build exaggerate the angle of the leg, so it looks proper to me.
Another shot... I think you are good.... Enjoy your new Batman!!! The photos look great!!!
I know the feeling
Upped my Flexpay and now he has been shipped and should be here next week
Looking forward to seeing this beauty in person!!

Does anyone keep their PF's in an acrylic case or similar? (as opposed to a detolf)... When I have this in-hand, I've been considering sitting this on top of my detolf and placing an acrylic case over the top (with some lighting) to help keep the dust off.

Yeah it's amazing how such a simple big acrylic case can be so hard to find. Like no one makes them and if you do find it its expensive. I've seen one that would hold a 25 inch Statue and it was $245! Just a big plastic see through cube is all I need really. But can't buy em.
Looks great man nice setup!

casesforcollectibles.com is 1 place I found, but it's the same price or more for 1 PF. Even an IKEA BestA with glass doors and lighting is expensive. Everybody cashes in with this hobby of collectibles.
I have a friend that does really nice acrylic work. He recently made me one. I can give you his contact info if you like. Acrylic is not cheap, and having someone that can do flawless bubble free seams is also not easy to find. Shipping can also add up. Mine is 24 tall x 18 wide X 13 deep, and cost $120.
Respectfully, you don't want to keep a beloved statue under a piece of crap display case.... working with acrylic takes finesse...
Why so snarky? I'm all for people making their cases themselves. I'm just trying to let people know that buying the acrylic isn't cheap, and to then try to work with it for the first time, you likely won't be happy with the results. I've been in the aquarium hobby for decades, and a lot of acrylic work happens, and I know how difficult it can be, and costly. I'm just trying to be helpful.
