This forum is for BZPower-related questions only. wink.gif Please post questions about pieces like this one in the LEGO BIONICLE Sets forum.

To answer your question: Could you show us a picture? smile.gif The quality does not matter, just so we can see the pieces, because I am a bit confused by your description.

I believe you would ask this in the Lego Bionicle sets forum. The forum you posted this in is for BZP related questions only. smile.gif

As for your question: I guess you could try taking a butter knife, slding it in between the eye piece. Then, using the knife as a lever undo the eye piece, and take a set of pliers to the red axle rod and pull it out that way. Then push a rod through the mouth of the head to extract the other rod.

Hope this helps. happy.gif

For future questions about sets/set pieces, the set forum is the way to go.

However, to fix your problem, the best method is to use a contraption to remove the eye piece like the Brain Pop, which will not cause damage to your pieces like Tifosi's method. Once the eye piece is off, you can then push the 2# rod out with another rod.

If removing the eye piece doesn't work, and the rod is going through a pin hole in the weapon and not an axle hole, you can use a straight pin or small finishing nail. Slide the head of the pin/nail into the empty space along the axle, catch the head in the notch, and pull out. If the pin/nail head is just a little too large to fit, you can file it down or bend it a bit with a hammer.

Since you now know where you should ask if you need more help, I'll close this.
