    I duno, fill them in with putty and sand them down I guess? Cuz AM ports are just 5mm ports right?
    And what figure are you trying to remove the ports from?

    Oof, yeah. I can see why you wanna remove those ports. Are those separate pieces or actually moulded into the figure? If they're separate you could try to heat up the plastic a little bit and wedge a thin flat blade or similar thing beneath them and wedge them off if you can break the adhesive.

    I can see clear glue. I put him in a bag threw him into the freezer for another 4 hrs and then I'm gonna try to pry it off after that

    OK, if the adhesive shrinks from the freezing that would make things a lot easier.
