5' 11" Realistic Posable Female Mannequin MM-Z25

The build of the mannequin is high quality but the construction of the holes were done poorly and not fully cut out so I can’t fit the screws through the holes to secure the limbs . Unless I drill the holes out myself , it’s unusable . I’m thinking of returning it because $707 is alot of money for a mannequin that’s problematic straight out of the box . Guests who come over see random mannequin parts on the floor and say “you still haven’t put that thing together??” And I reply “the holes don’t fit” .. Please help me resolve this. I was excited about the product when I ordered it and I’m trying to avoid buyers remorse

Model MM-Z25 mannequin looks even more beautiful in real life!

Upon receiving this mannequin, I was impressed by how well she was packed! The biggest parcel was a double box for extra strength and each of the limbs was inside its own bubble pack bag. The pieces were all surrounded by little spongy scraps of what looks like scuba diving wet suit material. This is good for shock absorption. The boxes were clearly marked "fragile, handle with care". The face of the mannequin had a foam mask to protect her nose from breaking. As for the mannequin herself (model MM-Z25), quality is great, all the pieces were there and the stand has a foot support as well as a calf support for better dressing options. The joints are all metal threads and posts, so they can withstand a lot of position changes without wear and tear issues. All it takes is an Allen wrench to move or remove any limbs. The mannequin's face is pleasant (not pouty like some can be), she has nice eyelashes and light colored lipstick and rouge. She has holes in her ears for earrings. I had no problem assembling her. Put one foot on the stand first and work your way up from there. She comes apart easily for dressing. We remove her from the stand and sit her on our sewing studio couch sometimes for a little change and she looks so real! We have several "normal people wigs" that fit her head fine.

Good quality mannequin and I was able to set up my museum exhibit the way I had hoped. However, it would be helpful to have a guide for those who are not used to setting up these poseable models.
