OK, now that most have seen decent photos of the Mattel Sinestro, or have him in hand, and have seen both the light blue and dark blue Cast-A-Way boots, which do you think match the blue in Sinestro's uniform best? Not which match the color of his boots best, but the blue in his uniform. I need to know what color boots to order when I do.
Thanks!

Another question is which color would dye the best? Then you could make them whatever color you please!

dyeing tends to dull the boots out. Trust me I tried. I use duplicolor vinyl and plastic paint. They have a nice blue.

True, but I am trying to keep the customizing/mods to a minimum. I would rather just purchase some already blue boots. They don't have to be a PERFECT match, just close.

I just got a set today, and I would go with light blue if that is what is on the figure above, but I would suggest getting the figure first before ordering.
I didn't think I would, but I actually like the Sinestro boots.
However, the boots do look bulky to me on Superman and GL. But really this figures look great to me. I'm looking forward to getting a set for my great nephew and maybe a Superman the son of a buddy of mine.

Thanks Jerry, those look like they will work just fine.
I will be waiting to get the new figures to make sure I still want to make the switch, but from photos I have seen, it is likely I will. The Castaway boots are such a drastic improvement on my Green Arrow.

Jerry,
What is the exact "Blue" name when using Dupli Color Vinyl & Fabric Dye Spray? There are color names like Medium Blue, Sky Blue, etc. I'm looking for the blue you used on your Sinestro boots which I believe is also the Blue on the boots sold by CastAWay Toys? Your help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Those are the Castaway light bue boots. I bought the duplicolor HVP102 Vinyl Blue I used this on my 70/s Batman
