| A few weeks ago I received a rocky mountain stallion in the mail. Being Safari I did not expect to have my horse actually not stand on his four legs like he can not do. I was wondering if anyone else that owns this figure has run into the same issue or if it is just my figure. Hopefully you can tell from the photos below that his front legs do not match up. The leg that is bent is longer than it should be and I have to bend it to get it to stay for a bit for pictures. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] |

| Arrrh, what a nuissance for you But it is a lovely model of a gorgeous breed ( in spite of the problems with hereditary eye disease). Do you know the trick with warm water, so you can re-shape the position of the legs ? |

| haha yes I have a trick I know you can bend the leg to the position you want and you can use a hair dryer as well. Nice to know my horse wasn't the only one with this issue. |
