Sounds like you deleted histoy or freezed transformations on your duplicates mate.....

Agree with the post above...you should NOT freeze transformations when you duplicate geometry for blend shapes.

A fix...maybe....would be to get rid of your blendshape node (but leave the target geometries). Reposition each target at exactly the same coords as the base geometry and THEN freeze trans on ALL. Make your blend shape node, finally rebind the skin and all should be well.

I had this problem when i was doing my blend shapes before. I don't think u can fix it. I tried so many ways to fix it but it wouldn't work. What you have to do is unbind it, then bind it again, and redo the paint weights. Thats what I did and it works fine. Oh yeah and you shouldn't have to redo your blendshaps when you rebind it.
