You're right! Tehy look like they've been broken in a couple of awkward places.

I have this fig, and the leg thing is just a bad pic.  Its not as obvious in person.
That being said....
Its also closer to a 32-34mm range.  Kinda big for heroic 28mm gaming. :-[ As I found out the hard way...

Seen it before.  That leg completely spoils it for me.  Looks awful.   :?

The one thing I forgot to mention is to inspect the fig before you buy him.  I bought mine from CMON, and it came with the razor broken.  >:(
I thought, well, I can put that back on.  WRONG!
Its a very small 'fiddly' thing to either try to put back on or to pin.
I ended up tossing it and made a new blade out of flattened very thin brass rod.
