I’m thinking of customizing my Wolfpac Lex & making a Wcw version out of it …. What are any currently available figures that have solid white boots that would work for this? …. I don’t wanna pay a fortune for a set of feet

- Elite 30 Lex Luger
- Then, Now, Forever 3-Pack Lex Luger
- Elite 45 Lex Luger (you’d need to remove the purple tassels at the top of the boot)
- Legs 15 Chase Lex Luger

I got lucky and found both the regular and the chase. Heated them up with the hair dryer and swapped the boots. Hid the weird Luger behind my Horsemen set up so I didn't have to see his boots.

The WCW Legends 15 Lex chase. Well yeah LoL …. When I get that one I don’t plan on taking it apart …. I’m wanting white boots for Wolfpac Lex to go with that one, you know, younger version/older version |

I’m wanting white boots for Wolfpac Lex to go with that one, you know, younger version/older version I understand that, but that is the only current figure with tall white boots out there. I honestly don’t think there’s any others except for Luger’s past figures or the RSC Hogan with the logos removed. So the L15 is the only current figure that you don’t have to pay over $22 for. So just buy two. |

If memory serves me there was a variant in white boots. But I never seen it in person. If a variant exists, I don't see any on google images. The only Luger with white boots that pops up says they did a boot swap. I honestly never noticed Mattel made that mistake until this thread pointed it out. Been wanting to pick it up for a while. |

Probably for the same reason they made the ridiculous mistake of making the wrist tape white on the Wolfpac Luger … I don’t believe there’s enough people on their team paying attention to those small but important details |

I ended up correcting mine with Narcissist Luger boots. |

But like I said I never seen one in the wild. |

I ended up correcting mine with Narcissist Luger boots. I did the same thing the moment I got the chance. Amazon had Narcissist Lex for cheap years ago, and I bought extras because I'm a Luger fan. I used the extra head for a MOTWU/Superstars Luger in orange (with Horde Macho Man's boots). It's weird how few Mattel figs use the Luger white boots. Back in the day it seemed like there were all kinds of wrestlers in white boots, but maybe most had writing on them (like Mr. Perfect or Flair, which were also shorter boots). |

I think the easiest way is going to be just getting two of the chase and using those boots. Just order a bunch of Lex off target online and return whatever isn’t the chase. The online seems to just dump out the chases with Target.  |

Most recent Bulldog has tall white boots but are wider so will not be flush with the calves. Same with RSC Hollywood

I think it’s odd because I believe only Luger uses that tall boot mold. The other tall boot mold for guys like Macho, Bulldog etc were a completely different boot mold. I found out it’s because Luger’s calves are thin and the regular tall boots mold leave an overhang if you were to swap. |
