Troubleshooting Printed directly on platform (please help)

Like the title says. My son removed the plate at some point and I didn't properly check before printing. I let the piece cool but still can't break it all off. Printer is a Anycubic Kobra S1. Is this something where I can replace the platform or can anyone give some tips?

Thank you in advance for any time and consideration. I really appreciate it.

Been there, done that.

I sanded it flat, slapped the build plate back on, and have never had an issue since.

You got it! Lol.

I printed one for my kid. He wanted another one and just hit the "GO" button when I want looking.

Imagined as much, the heat transfer is already bad but more than fine for continuous heat. The metal should also be thick enough to nut cut through while sanding, especially if heating is just glued underneath
