I depotted all of mine, and I also use the no heat, pliers, alcohol method.
The trickiest part was simply popping out the shadow from the main, outer compartment. I tried to pop the shadow out like a regular shadow. But other than that, I had no problem. Just be more delicate and slow when prying them. They don't like to have their shape bent.
I broke the very first one, when I pried it out too quickly. The one I did break, though, repaired very well with 96 alcohol.
Other than that, when I was careful, I had no problems at all. I'm so glad I did depot them.
I also have mine currently in a palette with the divider removed. I have 13 of them, which makes putting them in a 12 palette not possible (you have no idea how much that ticks me off :0 )
Can I just tell you how much I adore having them in one palette. I've found that they blend well together on the brush to make additional hues. (such as papparaz she and tweet me together, etc). I use more colors and come up with more and more fun combos.
I also have been using my Peacocky shadows almost exclusively since I got these. My favorite shadows, ever. really. It's been really hectic around here, and I haven't had much time to spend on my makeup, but these shadows are easy to put together quick looks, and go on quickly (it doesn't take a long time to blend them, they all look good together, several of the shadows can be used by themselves, etc)
I have been thinking of getting Mating Call off and on for days now. It's not typically a color that I'm drawn to in a shadow, but I feel I will regret if I don't. If they have it next week when I'm in the area of Nordies, I am just going to break down and get it. Yep. And the other one I didn't get is Peek at You, but I haven't been thinking about that one. It didn't show up on me when I swatched it.
Team Peacocky sounds about right to me!!!
