*Official* Boots Thread

Post by The Cylon Empire » Wed Mar 23, 2011 9:20 pm

The 1978 Cylon Centurion has a "found object" for their boots. They are modified leather Georgia Lines Men boots that date to the mid/late 1970s.

Screen accurate details:
  • Size is specific to the wearer. There is not one "must have" size to be accurate.
-The boots are modified by:
  • Strap cut off of the outer ankle area
  • chrome paint applied: to the heal, sole edge and toe.
Low cost alternatives:
  • Many "look-a-like" boots can be found online. However, being a calf-high leather boot they are all still mostly around $100 brand new.
Notes:
  • The chrome/gold armor around the top of the boots, is a free floating part of body armor, they are not permanently attached to the leather boots.
  • From time-to-time on eBay screen correct Georgia Lines Men boots can be found, however their size and condition will be hit or miss for used boots. Builds will move along faster with a good "look-a-like" while keeping your Cylon eye open for Georgia boots if you are after screen accuracy.
