Not all of them can be removed and the ones that can are a nightmare! I did it on 2 Cybertron Hardtops and it was a pain but those were only basic scale.

You'll need a hammer and a nail.
Take the nail, and get rid of the pointy sharp end, also the nail should fit into the metal rod hole so ti should be a little smaller then the pin you want to get out.
Find the end of the pin, the one that was driven into the plastic, you'll recognize it by the plastic it pushed out, also it is a smaller hole then the end that wasn't driven in.
Take you nail and stick it into the small end and use your hammer to drive it out, be careful not to drive your nail into the plastic!
Once your finished just drive em back in.
