    Jet Jungle boots

    I recently purchased a Jet Jungle replica action figure from CTVT. And I really like it. Very cool looking and I will never own an original of one. I do have a question about the original boots that Jet Jungle wore. In the pictures in the gallery for the WGSH it appears that JJ is wearing the "Soldier Ape" boots but the description of the figure does not mention his boots. What boots does the original figure actually have?

    The replica JJ is wearing similar boots but they are rubber not plastic.

    These are the correct boots, at least mine has them.

    I can't compare mine to an CTVT as I don't own one.

        Yeah, the pants aren't right on the CTVT either, they should flair.

          The pants on mine are tucked into the boots. Looks rather cool. I did buy an extra head and suit to place on a Doc Mego body. Now I know which boots to get. Thanks.

          Oh, and thanks for the starter set of cards. I got them on Monday. Sadly, no Jet Jungle or POTA but the trading will soon begin!

            If I'm not mistaken JJ came on a T1 body

              True but you won't find too many of those at Dr Mego.

                Ahem... Sure the galleries mention the boots, in detail with pics. All you have to do is click the accessory check link for the figure.

                  Ah, I see that now. However there is no link to that on the
                  Jet Jungle main page.

                        True, but why buy a repro body when it's just as easy to find an original T1 body. Even makes your JJ a bit more "real"

                          No excuses! You should have the urls memorized by now. You shouldn't need links!

                          Big oops there. We'll get that fixed. We may have missed a link here and there. Until we do, for future reference there is an Accessory Check logo on the main gallery page and on the main page of this forum that will take you to an index of all the completed AC pages so far.
