    Hello, I think this is the right spot to post this. I'm working on building the Galva Convoy after picking it up in the Fun Pub sale recently. I'm trying to figure out the best way to remove pins from another figure, since it didn't come with the proper hardware.

    Is it best to just use a screw driver and hammer them out/in? I've never tried this before so any help would be appreciated! I apologize if I'm posting in the wrong forum. If so, I can repost in the proper one.

    I prefer a simple pin-punch like this:

    I feel it gives more control than the spring-loaded type, plus the rounded end helps drive the pin back in.
