With respect, I must happily report an experience entirely in contrast to
yours. I'm sorry for the hassle you've encountered; not only did my 9735 have
all the listed pieces and then some, but I've also never had that problem with
any MegaBloks set I've purchased. As a conservative estimate I would say that
I own in excess of 200 MegaBloks sets, none of which has been missing anything
more substantial than a 2x4 brick. Actually, I did once have trouble with
missing instructions from the big Mustang model, but that error was painlessly
corrected for me by TRU.
Again, I'm sorry that you drew the short straw in your purchase, but my
feeling is that you ran into a string of bad luck. I intend to purchase at
least one more copy of this set, and at least one of each of the other TRU
exclusives. If I notice any parts missing, I'll be sure to post an update.
Thanks for the warning, though.
Dave!
