PROBLEM IMPORTING A DAE FILE IN BLENDER

Hello all Im rather new here and hate asking maybe stupid questions but this time i must do it.

downoades the maitreya -Lara messbody DAE file and when I import it to the blender instead a head, torso and lowerbody i get a few dozen pieces all one over the other like a puzzle, is this normal or am I doing someting wrong?
I also tried to upload the dae into SL using firestorm as usual and get the same pack of pieces.

thanks in advance for any help
