I've heard of this problem from several other people. Where did you get it from. If it's someplace like BBTS they'll be able to send you a replacement.

That's a little tougher then. I guess you could try contacting him and seeing if he has any others, if not, I don't really know what to tell you. Anyone else have ideas?

There's a law that states that if a buyer feels they have bought a product that is bad value for money the seller is legally obliged to replace or refund. If you speak to your local Citizen's Advice Bureau they can give you the right references to support the complaint. The seller should seek a replacement from wherever they got the item.

I'm trying to imagine how he could come with two left legs. He is packaged in alt mode.

Stormrider has a point. How was Screamer packaged?

I was wondering that but didn't want to say in case it just highlighted my ignorance!

2 left thighs wich makes the knee bend the wrong way. the "boot" is, of course, the right one!

Well, looking at this pic I can see how that would suck royally. You're gonna have to contact the seller. If the box was sealed when you got it, theres not much he can do but be willing to offer a replacement. Other than that, you're probably gonna have to contact Takara. Good luck.

I see now. Yeah, probably the easiest is to have it returned.
