    Does anyone make(or know who makes)a pair of Robin boots for a 6" Robin figure?

    I'm going to be making a 1966 Robin 7" figure in the future and I have almost everything to make him except for the boots.I don't want to make them out of material instead I'd rather have them in either rubber or soft vinyl.The body is a Lion Rock 6" body and when I add the Robin head it totals 7" which is just right for a 8" Batman figure.If anyone makes or knows who might make them for a 6" Lion Rock body please let me know.I bought some green 8" boots thinking that they might work but they're way to big.Thanks again to everyone for your continued help with my customs,I really appreciate it a lot.

    I used the regular Robin boots for mine, but if you find any let me know.
    Maybe shrinking them? Don't know if that will work tho

      Teen boots

      Get a pait of Doc's yellow teen boots and cut them off at an angle.

      Better late than never.....

        I made some for mine out of ProCreate. They are a bit flexible...you can vary it with the amount of hardener you use.

        You can see them a little in this pic (middle shelf to the right)

              Sweet collection indeed Cat, but I seriously doubt that's all of it. Someday you're gonna have to show us everything

                ^ Ok Thomas ... you asked for it:

                That's most of it, though these photos are a bit out of date...

                  Try acetone shrinking a pair of repro ones. Can't say I've done it but it works on the rotocast stuff and I believe the materials are similar. They will harden but should shrink a little which is all you need to go from an 8" scale to a 7" scale.
                  It's not a doll it's an action figure.

                    Holy crap Cat, what an awesome collection, this is sweet as heck
                    You have a very cool customs collection as well.

                        Shrinking reg. Robin shoes is an option, but I like the idea of trimming Doc Mego TT yellow boots and dyeing them...

                        And nice collection, Cat
