    Onslaught's head looks like the Classics Gimlock head with a painted visor. Brawl's head is from the F-22 limb robot from the E. Superion set, but I can't tell if it was modified or not from that angle.

    You can pick up a cheap soldering iron at Wal-Mart to use. Just heat the pin for 30-45 seconds (give or take) and it should pull off. I think the Brawl head is attached to the head guns that are mounted to the sides of it, but I'm not positive.

    To put those heads on and give them some nice mobility, I'd suggest using a dremel and drilling out a hole to pop onto a ball joint (you'd also have to scavenge a ball joint post from another figure for these). Check the tutorials here--I know there is one on pin removal to help you out and I believe there is a tutorial on drilling a hole for a ball joint to snap into.

    Good luck with these!
