Leg Measurements

I measured the length of the foot with a vernier caliper. It is 8mm long (20 LDU). The circular section of the leg has a diameter of 7mm (17.5 LDU).
The circular section is centered with a resulting radius of 8.75 LDU... There is a slope on every minifig leg back. Don't worry it is just 0.045mm width per 1mm height.

Rise = 11mm
Run = 0.5mm

Slope = Rise / Run
Slope = 2200%

The slope is hard to spot with the human eye on a real pair of minifig legs.
The computer works like a magnifying glass. With very high zoom and bad aliasing you will see the slope blindingly easy.

edit: On the real part there is a small line parallel to the slope on each side. This small line makes the illusion perfect, as you can see here https://ministryofminifigures.files.word...erman3.jpg
