Re: Combiner Wars G2 Bruticus mold changes?

One trick is using a small head soldering gun from circuit board repairs and using the tip to heat the pin just enough to slide it out. You need needlnose pliers and a firm grip. The only issue here is that if you heat too much and apply force sideways the pin can melt right through the peg hole walls. You MUST pull pin out straight. To reassemble simplly reheat the pin in grip of needlenose and push back in. If done right it causes minimal damage and can fix the issues at hand. Patience and a solid plan on where to grab and when to pull is vital.
Too soon and you get pin stuck halfway and have to reheat and risk sidewall melting, too late and the plastic around pin becomes molten and liquifies away.
Ive tried it a few times on junkers. Tried and suceeded only a few times out of manyvtries.
On second thought... dont try it.
