Question on Removing United Megatron's 'Wings'

Good day all
I finally managed to get a United Megs (UN-09)to go with my Classic Prime. The silver and black colour scheme is superb. My only problem is those damn wings that hang off his back spoiling the G1 look.
Does anyone have any advice on how to remove them? From what I can see they are held by a pin... would a drift of someone work to knock it out without damanging it in case I need to put it back together again?
Thanks!
