Aragorn's boots are great but I think that Luke's are not exactly comparable. I am with Khev on this one. They need to cloth from the ankles up.
They have a texture to them that feels cloth-like. I agree with you and pix about them being cloth, but being realistic about Sideshow's practices with boots, I just don't see it happening.
So long as they dont look like moon boots a la hasbro, i'll be ok.
I'm thining you may not be ok then, my guess is they'll look something like the Bespin boots in terms of overall quality for size and shape and all.
I'd love to surprised and wrong.
I just looked at Old Ben's boots, yes he has not cloth tucked in them, but they're tighter to his legs so maybe there's hope. We'll know Thursday most likely.

As stated earlier, I don't think Sideshow like to double up on their exclusives between the PF and 12" versions of a character. I'm pretty sure I've read this in the past - maybe someone could point us to the source??
However it turns out, I just hope I get the hat, goggles and poncho-reg. ed or ex. ed.

My guess is the poncho and hat will be included... I have no real interest in them, but my guess is Sideshow will go all out on this similar to the Jedi Luke.

Have you seen these US Army Infantryman, Private AEF 1918 orUS Army Officer, Lieutenent AEF 1918
I hope the boots look like this instead of big plastic boots.
What do we reckon about the exclusive then T-16 model, Blast Helmet that massive rifle he has when he hunrs for R2?

Ahh, thanks for sharking that. That hadn's crossed my mind, 2 part boots, even like the Endor Troops, solid boots and then fabric wrap around up the calf. Let us hope they go that route.
I always liked Sideshow boots in the Star Wars range...
Most of the other ranges are wearing the same footwear (Freddy and Jason (Except FvJ Jason) for example?)...
Whereas even the boots are sculpted here...
Well Done Sideshow...Well Done...

Rubber, plastic, cloth... as long as they look good thats what I'm concerned with.
Although the ones for the Endor Trooper did turn out nicely.

I think cloth is the way to go and it isn't like they don't have experience with doing cloth leg wraps. Just give us short boots and then do the cloth over those and have either hooks or something on the back if you want to remove them. Maybe glue them to the boot? Or if you don't want snaps maybe a band of elastic on the top and bottom?
You are quite right, an example is the SSC WWI German Stromtrooper.

I think the boots for most SSC SW figs have been great. Much better than the Aragorn boots which look really bad.

I agree completely with this observation. The Aragorn boots have always been the one thing that has bothered me about that fig.
