Guys and gals: I want to replace the cloth "feet" which wear shoes with a pair of comical "bare feet" on my Alfaro's "Cletus" hillbilly figure and I'm having trouble finding a source. I'd like to get some feet that have a comical large protruding "big toe" and I think I saw them once but can't remember who makes them. Please let me know ASAP. THANKS!

Tim Cowles makes bare feet which I got for my goof figure I got for him. Unfortunately, neither picture I have readily available really shows them good, but here's the stock picture of the figure and a picture of mine;

Puppets and Props have 'em, too, though they're not as cartoony (which may be what you're looking for), but they ARE having a sale. http://www.puppetsandprops.com/castfeet.html

It is possible to change the Puppets and Props feet with Apoxie Sculpt. But realistically, it may depend on the size of the figure your getting them for. some feet, like hands, are too large or too small depending on the overall dimensions of the figure.

Thanks, Phillip and Gary! I really want the "cartoony" looking feet with the oversized/protruding big toe like the ones in the picture. My Cletus appears to be the same size as the figure in the pic as well. Waiting on Tim to reply.

THANKS to the RAPID responses of Dave Boiano and Tim Cowles, I now have my barefeet on order!!! MANY SPECIAL THANKS to Dave for taking the time to take his pair of feet off his figure and take 10 detailed pictures and then send them to me so I'd have them for reference/example IF I needed someone to carve me a set (and I SINCERELY THANK Jim Manalli for offering to carve me a pair if Tim couldn't provide/sell them to me:o) YOU guys and gals are ALL SUPER SPECIAL in my book!!!
