No clue how to do it with the hard heads. it very easy with the softer, original heads. you just have to heat them up until they get really nice a soft. i was able to just push in at the chin of the head and continue around to peal the head off the glue and off of the base.

Dude I used a screwdriver on the hard heads and pryed them off and I should mention I GOT LUCKY! - although I snapped off part of the plug on luke's head it still fit in the stormtrooper's torso - I just Krazy glued the plug to the swivel in the torso and boom done. If you do this be SUPER careful, as when I did it with the stormtrooper I completely destroyed the plug on that head... the problem with the hard heads is that the swivel piece is impossible to remove from the body.

I just tried to "Boil" Luke, and failed miserably. His head came clear off, i could Glue the head to the stormy, but then it wouldn't rotate. Dang it hasbro!
