Thank you, B_dub345. I just hope that I have better luck with the next one. What surprised me is that the box was not damaged. When I went to the UPS store to pick it up I heard something rattling and thought that was not a good sign.
The three you have look great together. Nice touch with that image of Batman looking over the hellscape.
The detail on the base is insane. I can't get over how the taillight looks like broken glass. At first I thought it was more damage on my copy but then realized that it was the actual detail of it. I've been trying to figure out if the design of the car is based on a real make and model or if WETA just came up with it. It looks to be a type of hatchback.

Looks pretty nice. Looks like Affleck to me. Congrats.

That's what I've been wanting to see, Joker with other 1/4-scale statues. I think he is a bit small compared to the other two but he is further back and they still look good together.
Batman looks really good! Great collection!

Your Batman statue and setup with the 3 looks amazing, B_dub345. Nicely done! I just looked up their heights and Leto is 5'11" and Affleck is 6'2". A 3" difference.

Great! I thought they would.
I've seen conflicting heights on Afflecks ranging from 6'2" to 6'4".

If he's 6'4" then there definitely is a decent height difference between the two, T1000. I wonder if Joker looks shorter because of the angle that we are looking at him from. He's leaning way back and Batman is really leaning forward. Taking a picture looking up at the statues might exaggerate the difference. Maybe looking at them straight on, the height is not that drastic.
Either way, I still love the setup, B_dub345. They look outstanding together. That must be a really sturdy shelf you got there, because these are not light pieces.

Yeah, he's leaning back, has his legs apart and he's towards the back of the base.

Thanks! And yes it is! 3/4" threaded steel rods into the livedge wallnut. I could probably sit on it (but I'm not gonna), they'll bend but shouldn't break

WETA was quick. They sent me a new statue last week and it arrived today without any breaks. I absolutely love it. I need to find a furniture piece or two to hold Batman and Superman.
I found a new detail that I was not aware of in the base today. There is a boot/foot, in the rubble, which I presume was one of Superman's victims that was in the vehicle he used his heat vision on.

Great news, sounds like WETA's customer service is on point.
