Boots--plastic vs. vinyl

[boynightwing]

I remember when I was a kid and I accidentally broke Batman's boot. I was pretty upset. My dad glued it back together but I couldn't be rough with it. It always bothered me after that.

Which is why the rubber boots are superior.

I like Chips style Boots...which is what Lex & GL are wearing, but just a bit bigger and thicker...but I like them anyway.

I also like the Cast-A-Way pointed Toed Boot...which is also the Chips style, but a lot thinner than Mattel's.

I like the Mattel boots....if they were a little thinner I would like them even more

I can completely see what you mean about durability, although even as a kid, I had few boots split.

I guess I like the firmer/thinner silhouette of the plastic boots. But now even GI Joe boots are vinyl.

I agree, the thinner "silhouette" of the plastic boots looks better, but you cant beat boots that flex with the ankle joints!

^^ I hope they never make modern characters like Drake or Impulse.

Never is a long time.

I hope they eventually make modern characters.

I would be first in line for Tim Drake and Bart Allen. I have the entire runs of both characters. They're fun and interesting.

Yeah, I wouldn't mind a couple of modern characters, but now is way too soon. Too many classics to be done first
