Going to try posting that again

Anyway made a discovery while playing around with Mel some more. One of her sandals felt a bit loose so i gave it a quick pull while gripping it at the heel and it came right off.
The other sandal needed a little more prying(thin bit of metal/ wood placed between the sole of the foot and the sandal then just carefully work it loose then just pull apart at the heel again.
No permanent damage, sandals still hold on solidly when in place so it's should be possible to get Mel barefoot with practically no effort.
Pic related( and I missed out on Clover so no trickery with swapping parts over.)
