Removing awkward pins? (FOC Grimlock)

Postby Afterlife07 » Sun Jun 30, 2013 9:40 am

Motto: "'Til All Are One!"

My FOC Grimlock's really messed up.

I'm trying to fix his shoulders first and foremost, but his pins are really awkward to get to.

I've tried heating it up using a hair dryer and trying to knock it out with a hammer and nail but the angle is really really weird.

Putting clear nail polish along the joint isn't working, I'll have to actually detach them and pour it down the pin hole.

Does anyone know what's the best way to get to this pin without destroying the figure?
