Ahoy there fellow travelers !
Had a G1 Rodimus arrive with a broken peg (most likely from his gun) stuck inside the fist.
Any solid techniques to get this annoying little broken stub out?

I guess you either drill it with quite a smaller sized drill bit or put a screw in it part way and pull it out.
To drill it I would measure the depth of the hole, put tape below that depth on the drill bit (so you dont go too deep) and clamp the figure so you have two hands to control the drill. The drill bit would be 1-2mm narrower than the whole and any remaining plastic hopefully can be scrapped out.

Hmmm lets see how it goes. Cheers fellas
I've used a small screwdriver to effectively hand-drill the core out. You can then apply some pressure inside the hollow core to drag it out of the fist without damaging the figure itself.
