And lastly, how did you attach the upper torso to the shatterstar pelvis? I’m making mine and am having difficulties attaching the two.

The boots are actually from a yellow Daredevil, painted over with a leather brown. It was the only one I had, but he's pegwarming pretty hard at all my local Walgreens so he should be easy to replace. As for the boot pads, they're actually made out of some thin masking tape meant specifically for arts and crafts that I got from Hobby Lobby. I just folded the tape over several times onto itself for each pad, gorilla glued them onto the boot, then painted over the entire boot with the leather brown that I mentioned before.

As for disconnecting the Shatterstar torso from the legs, I simply heated the figure up, slid my X-Acto knife in between the gap where the waist articulation is, and used all of my might to bisect the figure. Then I dremeled out a hole where the waist joint is, filled it with hot glue, used cocoa butter lotion on Cannonball's waist peg (to prevent the hot glue from sticking to the peg) and pushed it down into the hot glue, in order to create enough friction to keep the entire assembly in place while still allowing the torso to be removed to be used with the blast effect piece he came with. Great thing about this is you have the playability where you can interchange his legs with the blast effect piece, and you still retain the waist swivel.
