Heat up the ankle with hair dryer, then I gently pull them out with this:

Don't use force or the leg will split.

Cool, so you leave the feet attached when pulling the extender from the leg?

I took off the feet and the pegs before pulling the extenders out. Sorry for the confusion, the pic above is just to show you what the clear extenders looks like.

No problem. How long did you heat the area for? I did 60 seconds and still not working.

Around that 1 min mark as well, you might want to repeat the process, wiggle the extender a bit while pulling it. Just be careful not to split the leg.

Good stuff, yes you need to modify the pegs (I personally don't use the stock pegs in case, so I use the spares I have)

the pleather on mine started flaking while I had him stored in a drawer. Pulled him out to put him in his box and some of it just came off when I touched it. Pretty bummed. Not gonna be able to display him now.
