I've just realised that my Xander (exclusive version) has regular black shoes, however the prototype has those white sneakers. Is this a producton error or does everyone elses figures have the same black shoes?

I hated the black shoes. I really did prefer the white ones, as they looked more 'natural'.
I found out that with a bit of 'effort' Willows shoes can be put onto Xanders feet, and they do look a bit better.
I wonder why they went for black in the end?

Wow, that just plain sucks! He looks so much better with the sneakers on, its more Xander's style.

Yep, the white trainers were way cooler. The black shoes are so daggy. I wonder why they changed it.

Various retailers seem to be selling 1/6 scale white sneakers which should fit Xander fine... I'm intending to change out the black shoes once I can find a pair of sneakers for decent price...

I would have preferred the sneakers shown in the prototype pictures. That seemed to be more what Xander would have worn.

Visited a local retailer of 1/6 scale accessories few days ago but they were out of sneaker... argh Apparently a popular sold out item... Well, I still have yet to collect Xander anyway....

I managed to purchase cheap (£4.95) a Sideshow David Hubbins (Spinal Tap) doll off of eBay here in the UK and used the guitar from that for my OZ doll, plus I found that the sneakers that came with it were perfect for my Xander. More like the prototypes footware and far nicer then those dull brown things they ended up sticking on him.

Great match! Didn't realise Sideshow had these other types of figures. The other band members got such sneakers too! I was planning to get accessories from some fashion figures from another company but this seems to offer better fit and scale using accessories from Sideshow as well... ... although slim chance I'll find rock musician figures around my area...

Here's a link to some really sweet athletic shoes: www.legendshobbies.com/The DiD figures have some excellent outfits--street style stuff & skater boy togs. I love the one that looks like Eminem.

Here's my attempt at varying Xander. Maybe sorta closer to the Buffy pilot episode version of him carrying backpack and skateboard, then picking up Buffy's stake after she dropped it bumping into him.

BTW, did any BTVS character use a bicycle?

Yes, Willow, Xander, and Anya rode the bicycles in "Pangs".
