A seemingly small and insignificant detail and yet, I can't get over my dislike for it enough to buy the piece.
Had they kept the boots intact I'd have seriously considered it (minus flame saber).
What's your issue with them?

Any sufficiently advance cybernetics would try to mimic what was missing as much as they could, and toes do serve a purpose. Maul had them too.

I don't know about concept art for Vader - I was actually referring to the Maul Mythos:



Further, for Maul, Clone Wars didn't, but that's an animated (and not very detailed) representation. Live-action has a three-toed model:





Kinda clunky, if you ask me. I think Sideshow Mythos do them better.

But yeah, you can clearly see Vader has toes in Episode III.

Actually, it's just toes in general.
Not a fan - sandals, bare feet, open-toed shoes, etc.

I just don't like feet.
