My AD15 Kane fell from on top of my cupboard and the peg in his head and body snapped in half. Half of the peg was stuck in his head which I managed to remove but the other half is stuck in his neck. I have tried heating the neck area and trying to remove it but it doesn't work. Any ideas.

Thanks and I will give Karma for good answers.

If not, try that, otherwise you might have to crack the neck a little bit.

I'm with iknowcool on this one... it's hard to say exactly what went wrong. Grab yourself a pair of pliers and just slowly but surely work at it until it's out.

Maybe add some kind of oil or lubricant to get it to come out, but that'll make it difficult to get a good handle on.

It could be there's a piece of excess casting or something in the way, you may want to cut around it with an exacto knife or something. I don't know, that's what I would do, but honestly I haven't taken apart too many RAs.

I've only had this happen once to me and it was on a Doink figure. The peg seems like it is stuck in there for life. I haven't really tried to get it out but I'd suggest heating it up, maybe even putting a lighter up to it on the peg and on the inside of the torso, so it doesn't mess up the outside.

Yeah I have tried this. Thanks anyway.
