Help disassembling Marvel Universe legs

Posted in Custom Workstation

Okay, I just started collecting Marvel Universe figures, but I've ran into a problem. I have Captain Marvel and Dark Wolverine, and both of them have the wrong feet on the wrong legs (I.e. left foot on right leg & vice versa). I really just want to sort this problem out, but before I mess with it, I thought I'd ask to make sure- should the heat & pop method work? I had heated up DW's leg and gave it a good solid pull, but it didn't seem to want to come out.

Oddly enough, the Captain Marvel figure is even more messed up- it has the wrong bottom half of the legs on the wrong sides as well, so technically it has the right feet on the right sides, but I'm going to have to switch them out along with the bottom legs.

Any tips? I had a hell of a time getting these two (had to finally just order Dark Wolverine from the Hasbro Toy Shop), and as they are, they absolutely can't stand up. Thanks in advance!
