Legends Tailgate - Assembled Backwards

Just got my Legends Tailgate in today. Did the usual transform him from bot mode to car mode and back again. And I noticed that the character's right foot (left side when looking at him face-on) is mis-assembled. When I tried to peg the foot into the slot on the arm it just didn't work.

Pulled him back out into robot mode took a closer look at him. Sure enough the foot was installed backwards. I popped the foot out of the joint reversed it and took another look at it. It seemed to work now... the test was, would it transform properly?

So I transformed into car-mode again, and I think he's been given two left feet. (I guess he won't be a great dancer on the Lost Light hehehe.) He still transforms okay, the foot doesn't stick out or impede proper rolling on the desk. It is however a minor irritation....

TF4 Galvatron had an arm joint installed backwards. Had to pop both pins and fix it otherwise his arms could not fold in the shell called his cab.

Yup, your pics confirm it.
I don't have the toy, but I can see it.

Glad it doesn't impede the Transform.
