Misassembled POTP Elita-1 a wide spread problem?
 
I picked up one today, and it's not a major flaw, but her feet were on the wrong legs. It's a simple fix; just 3 screws per leg to undo, and the feet are easily swapable.

But I have seen multiple people on various Facebook groups say that they have had the same issue. So it might not just be an isolated issue, and unless she's going to show up in another wave, they might all be like this.

Mine is fine. I bought her a couple of weeks ago here in the Durham Region and thankfully have had no issues
with her other than the pre-applied stickers already starting to unfurl which is common for this line.

Mine had the misassembled feet too. I did the fix easily enough, although the spring-plate in the combiner port gave me a small hassle when I was putting the legs back together.

What are the batch numbers for the good versions and the flawed versions?

Check again. Its very subtle but every single copy out there has the feet inverted. The right foot is on the left leg and vice versa, on every copy.

They are all missassembled so far.

Hnnn. I thought mine was fine. Opened her up, fiddled with her, posed, transformed and put into combined mode. I didn’t notice a foot problem. Not itching to de-combine her at the moment, as she’s rocking out as the torso for Computron, but will pull her down and check later this week.

Can someone post a pic of the issue?

i just packed mine away for the move, but if her feet are misassembled, i didn't even notice and it doesn't affect anything...?

I just looked at mine again. I didn't notice anything wrong with her feet. If there is anything wrong, then it must be VERY subtle. She can be posed and transformed with no apparent issues.
I think that a pick of the problem might help our understanding

It's very subtle. The feet are angled so that she stands with her legs slightly apart. As packaged, they are angled wrong.

I found a pic from The Allspark:
