    Romulan with 2 left arms??

    I went to my local comic shop over the weekend, and picked up the 2 Romulans they had put aside for me. Last night I opened the one with the more dinged up package, and then realized something seemed 'funny'. He has two left arms!! The legs are fine, but his 'right' hand looks ridiculous. The arm bends backwards of course, so I have it posed looking like the Andorian is twisting his arm REALLY badly!

    I know the shop had no extra Romulans left, so I'm glad I asked for two. The unopened one has the correct limbs in the correct places.

        I would send Doc a PM and see what the best course of action is to get it resolved.
        It's not a doll it's an action figure.

          Meh,

          Throw a spare arm on him from your parts bucket and you're ready to go

          I wouldn't bug the Doc with such trivial stuff.........

            I'd throw him on Ebay,.. & list him as a Rare, chase variant 2 left arms Romulan. I bet he goes for atleast 50 bucks.

              I'd just put two Original Mego Arms on Him...and He'll look even more vintage! I've already done this to Mine.

                I opened a MOC Klingon years ago that had the same problem. It's nice to know that EMCE is following in Mego's footsteps so closely

                    Since no one in the Federation (at least during TOS) had seen a Romulan in hundreds of years, then no one would know if they had two left arms.

                      I was in my local comic shop 2 weeks ago & a guy came in to exchange a Spock that he had bought there that had 2 left arms.

                        I don't have any spare Mego parts, just some complete figures, and carded ones. Also, I'm too new here to know the username for Doc that I should PM to ask for a right arm. I'd give a left arm to know it though! Oh, sorry, that was awful......

                          I am left handed, so 2 left arms might come in handy. Although both hands would feel the same. Nevermind. That is disturbing. Sorry =(

                            Y'know, I had a friend with 2 left arms, but he was still an all right guy.
