AP Trooper Armour

[LDR]

I have had a set of AP armour for about a year now, and i am just getting back into finishing the pieces.

Anyway i have just noticed that it appears to have two left fore arm parts, which is bugging me because its quite obvious now i've seen it. Is this a mistake or do all AP sets come with two left sided fore arms?

If this isn't a mistake, why does it come like this? Does it cut down on costs or is it just to save molding both sides?

not a mistake. the source suit from which this derives was missing an arm, so the substitution is to use 2 of the same arm.

the biceps are the same too.

it's a bit wacky looking when you are scrutinizing the parts, but once it's on, you don't really even see it.

Nope, not a mistake. The shins are the same way as well.
