Maybe build it in a different style. Ie if you are painting the original then make this one in a natural wood finish.

I guess your option is to see if you can get a refund or swap for it but you would have to check customer services to see what policy they have in place. Hopefully they will be understanding and be able to help you.

Another option is to return it, and get a different build. Explain to CS that it was a well intended, but duplicate of a previous build.

Or, build her up, but scratch build the open galleries she has before the first refit.
