They’re 2mm neodymium magnets so they’re pretty strong when they’re in close proximity. But the strength fades very quickly more than a 5mm or so gap. Of those dozen or so arms shown, I only managed to get the polarity wrong on one of them! (it’s marked with a pencil X in the photo). So only one guy can have a *pair* of lightning claws (? in my stl folder, they’re referred to as electric claws). The other guy can have *one* claw. Try to force him to take a pair and his arm falls off.
(in fact, doesn’t just fall off, but gets ejected violently).

Still, it’s pretty fun to go “this guy can take a sword and a bolter” and “this guy can have claws” and “this guy can have a machine gun and a power fist” and just pop the appropriate weapons in place. Then, for another game, just go “right, everyone has bolters” and still use the same minis.

Shoulder pads have just come off the printer, but I’ve got real work, work to do this morning.
