Hi @aemnewbie

There is no tool as such to delete renditions of assets from AEM, but you can write your own servlet/service which does this for you.
You can run this servlet/service once and iterate over dam hierarchy to remove renditions from assets.
You can use DAM assets API https://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/6-3/sites/developing/using/reference-materials/javadoc/com/day/cq/dam/api/Asset.html to remove renditions.
Also, do make sure if you don't need renditions for assets in future, you should remove renditions creation step from "DAM Update Asset" workflow

Hope it helps!
