    you have to carefully heat the head enough to vaporize the glue yet not melt the head itself

    13? That's a hell of a lot of Galvatron customs.

    I have two. The first one had a mold variance on the back panel where the one corner wasn't formed, leaving the piece looking melted.
    The heads on both are fine, though.

    Must...avoid...dirty...reply...


    Maybe either a hot air gun or even heating the screw that holds the light-piping piece in place. A fine point soldering gun should do it.
