Okay I have a scene where I have the troll and the freak in a ring.  I made it in poser and saved it.

When I import it into Carrara it imports perfectly except it doesnt import the freak.  It does import his hat and his hat moves in time to his body (if it had been visible) and I dont have his body just some lines.  The freak does show up in both the right and left columns with his bodyparts which are not visible.

So I went back to poser and opened the scene and he is visible in that scene.

Any ideas and thank you.
