    Here is how my daughter left the figures:

      Great pic. Glad to see there are other folks who like the boot as is, too.
      It's all good!

          At first I was unsure about the boots, but they've grown on me. I like them

            I like the boots just fine, but I can see how some folks would be off-put by them.

            One thing that bothered me (and was an easy fix): I didn't like the boots on Green Lantern so I swapped them with Green Arrow.

            GA's boots (to me) are perfect for GL and while I would prefer the original GA boots on GA, GL's boots don't look too bad as a swap.

            Also, assume we can dump the whole, "You shouldn't have to do that" argument for one second to catch what I am saying: A slight Dremel of the inside of the pelvis and the outside of the bottom of the torso and the Mattel bodies fall right in line.

              Any more info or pics would be helpful to complete the mental picture I have.

                  You know who Mattel could release that would require no boot swap? A Guy Gardiner Green Lantern! I have to say, I don't really have a need to swap my Mattel boots, but the swapped out pictures here definitely are improvements.
