Hopefully this question makes sense.
Is there a figure that has standard "wrestling boots" feet, that matches the new neon red plastic that came on the Elite 101 Roman?
I'd like to swap his feet for feet that aren't heels.

I'd like to swap his feet for feet that aren't heels. All of the bright red boots that come to my mind have white laces/soles that would have to be acetoned off. Retrofest Flair, UE George Steele, Red Rooster, Wolfpac Scott Hall, Typhoon, etc. Surely there must be some plain ones but I cant think of any.

I'm not worried about cleaning off any print, just that the Reds match up. I have some older parts but it was definitely a different red back then. Just need a confirmation of the reds matching before i spend any money haha

None of the torso swap suggestions are more drastic than what you did above with your Cody conversion Gluing the torso to the waist is absolutely, unequivocally a more drastic measure, lol. The torso modification is a more elegant solution, but it takes more effort and time. I was referring to you saying "such involved methods", and you talking about the usual torso swapping is about as involved as you can get - which I agree takes more effort and time. Although yes the gluing of one torso to another is hasty and unfortunately eliminates the articulation and means it could be snapped off again.

Thank you though.

Easy and “semi” cheaper than a full BaF Pearce
