Dragon strikes again, another screw up on an instruction sheet. When building the B figure it reverses the lower skirt of the field jacket on both sides. If you try to follow the instructions it won't fit, however reversing the front pieces with part B-16 on the figure's right side and -17 on the left work just fine. The same holds true for the two parts in the rear -18 and -19. Just a heads up so nobody else is sitting there looking at the sheet and scratching their head with colorful metaphors filling the room.

Thanks John I didn't catch that in my inbox review. I tend to ignore their figure instructions except to use all the A parts to build a figure, all the B parts for the next one and so on. I always dry fit bits like jacket skirts several times so that works for me. No exceuse for Dragon's mistake but better than leaving out parts of the assembly altogether like they did on on the Firefly kit.
