Hello, I have 2 questions about figure boots:
1) Can I please get a list of ELITE figures that have the PLAIN BLACK Batista-style boots? Like E2 and E6? I think there are some legends and other regular Elite figures (although NOT the Drew McIntyre versions) that have them.
2) Are there any ElITE PLAIN BLACK kicker boots (including the top part of the boot that's on the shin piece- so for example E3 Miz wouldn't work) that is Punk's version of the kicker? I'm trying to see if there are any to use for a plain black kicker fix-up that he frequently wears.
Thanks.

For some reason I think the first Elite Ziggler had black boots. Someone can correct me on that. E5, I want to say? He had the leather vest.
As for plain black kickers, I don't think so. Edge E1 has simple logos which could be removed easily I think, but he also had black calves. (Obviously, this is with the old-style kickers).

I checked and E5 Dolph's boots are half black half white. And I'm looking for some plain black kickers I could just throw on a spare Punk figure (without any tights or stuff on the boot/above the boot), but that's for that insight. |

Not sure about the 'tista boots, but for punk you could do a swap from the knee down with his basic 2 figure. It can be done, I've been thinking of doing it myself, but I know as soon as I do he'll just go back to wearing the more colorful boots more.
If its gotta be elite, jericho's paint could be taken off easily. Assuming you've got an extra elite Jericho you don't mind scrapping.

I've tried to do Basic to Elite boot switches, but the pegs are different lengths (at least for the ones I've tried). Are the pegs on the kickers the same lengths? |

I've noticed different pegs in all different legs, even going back to jakks RA figures. As a rule of thumb, I just try it keep the pegs with lower part of the leg. Might not always be a perfect fit, but generally the biggest problem I have is when the peg is too big for the knee hole. Knee hole? Is that even a thing? Haha. But srsly, I've done a bunch of basic knees into elite thighs and haven't had too many problems. Nothing a knee pad won't cover up anyways.

Elite 3 Miz is the only elite with plain black kickpad style boots. The elite MVPs have the smallest designs of the kickpad style boots, but may alter Punk's height.

Dang, that was what I was afraid of... And the part has the bottom of the shorts mold on each leg, so it probably wouldn't work even if the shorts were plain. Thanks for the help though. |

I don't generally do part swaps, but why couldn't you just take the boot off elite 3 Miz and put it on an elite 20 Punk, for example? |

E20 punk, like e20 jericho, has got the newer boots that are all one piece and don't have that part that's on the calf. Also, basic boots will fit on elite leg pegs, you just gotta cut the peg down a little. I've done it with plain scissors right after boiling water treatment- while the plastic is still real soft.

I get that, but the little bit that's on the calf (on the elite 3 Miz figure) is pretty irrelevant, looks-wise. Can just use the boot piece. Unless it would make the figure too short, it would still work if the peg fits right. The kneepads should go right to the kickpad anyway. Attachment Deleted |

Does anyone know about the Batista-style boots? I don't collect Legends, but I think some of them had those boots. Help please?

I don't think there were any legends with batista style boots. every legend I have has laced regular or tall boots. The easiest way is to go on ebay look eagh legend up and look at the picture and I think you will find none have that style boot. The legend with boots closest to that are LOD. |

The new kicker mold has a hole in the top that the calf goes partway into. |

Just try removing the logos from the kickers using nail polish remover.
