They need to be removed from the back, after removing a large number of very tiny screws, the circuit board a large number of tiny copper coloured spring/contacts and a like quantity of grey plastic springs. Reassembly is not for the faint of heart.  Been there, Done that.

Very good point to make! I found that keycaps pop off on my CoCo 3 with a "non-melted" keyboard, but I don't know if that's applicable to any of the other styles. And it certainly isn't applicable to the CoCo 1.
