    Ugh... Two right legs. Oh well, I won't be taking this guy out of his box and it's not that obvious on card. I know we should send them back to DR, but I just can't be bothered with the epic task of dealing with them for this one.

    I said "No, Other" because while all the parts appear correct, the one leg was packaged funny and now has a pretty extreme bend outward. I'm correcting it as best I can, but when Swifty stands it looks pretty funny for now.

    Certainly the legs dont look to be in line when viewed from the front. Weight and bending is helping.

    No, mine's got two right legs.

    And his wing came out of the socket, in package.

    I have one Swifty, and he's perfect. What a great looking toy! Great paint aps too.
    Not to sound like a creepy cheerleader for Uki, but it's nice to know there is at least one person on this forum who is extremely positive & friendly all the time. I don't think I could be that nice even if you paid me. If we ever give out awards for "forum member of the month", Uki gets my vote. -Mr. Shokoti

    The legs on mine are fine, but for the life of me, I can't get his wings to lock into place. I'm pushing so hard that I'm afraid the swivel pin will snap, but it STILL doesn't lock! *sigh*

    Mine's alright.

    I also had the sticker in the front so not sure how relevant that is.

    My Swiftwind is okay but my She-Ra came with 2 right arms. I have called Mattel for a replacement. We'll see how it goes.

    I just recently got my Swiftwind and he has two front right legs and two rear right legs! I took pictures to show Mattel (after they e-mail back). My Swifty also has the blue paint line...

    I hope my pictures will help people who are not sure if they have the correct legs or not:

    FRONT:





    REAR:

    I just got my swiftwind today. Mine had two left [LOWER HALVES of the left leg on both front "lower" legs]. But the upper halves were fine an the back legs were completely fine.

    I have no idea I can't tell the difference.
    Either way, they look fine so I don't really care if they are wrong.
