The peg on Mattel's figure shouldn't have come out unless you snapped/broke it . The bottom half of the pegs on Matte's figures are attached to something inside to torse to keep it from coming out. As for the Jakks head heat it with a hairdryer for 2-3 minutes so it gets softer. Then carfully use a pair of needle-nose pliers to pull it out. You might not be able to grip it at first so keep rotating (unscrewing motion) the stem until you work it to a way where you can grab it and pull it out.

Same thing happen to me when I did my Flair. Just heat up the head and grab the peg with pliers. Be patient

If you're having a problem getting at the peg, you can just put it back on the original body. From there, heat it and pop the head off

if the peg is stuck in the Jakks head its an easy fix. happens to me all the time. wat i do is heat up the head really well then take a paid or scissors and used them kinda like pliers. except scissors r flat so its easier to me to work with. i put the scissors on the side of the peg and rest them against the head so it kinda works like a see-saw. then i hold the head in place and push down on the handle of the scissors until the peg pops out. works for me every time. however in the future u should let the head heat up for a really long time and it comes off real easy with no problem. thats wat ive been doing lately. i just turn on the hot water and let it run on the figure for a few minutes while i do something else. by the time i come back the head is so soft it comes right off.
