There are several IBLES describing the process of using all sorts of materials to house USB flash drives.  One of my favorites is the classic Hampton LEGO brick that I'm sure many of you are familiar with.  Taking that as inspiration I created these, 8GB LEGO Flash drives featuring the boy that lived and his trusty sidekicks, Hermione and Ron!

Hi, I'm trying to make one of these for my friend's birthday but I've noticed some differences between the keychains and the regular figures. With the example you posted the person cut the figures and hollowed out their skirts, but on keychains the legs are glued into the torso and I can't find a way of getting them out without damaging other parts. If you could tell me how you solved this problem, I think I've got the rest of it covered. Thank you!

Thanks! I appreciate your quick answer and I think I'll try the technique tonight. I had found a site saying the glue they used was water soluble at a certain temperature, but it didnt seem to loosen the legs at all and even made 1 arm fall out! I've got a new Harry keychain though so lets hope for the best.

Maybe some pictures of the process would help, after all, this is Instructables.
