The sink.

I attempted to magnetize the plastic demon prince. First cut the tabs off the wings and glued magnets to the wings. Then I glued some magnets into the hole where the tabs from the wings fit. The magnets were about the size of the eraser on a pencil. Unfortunately, the wings were too close together because of this. So I tried drilling into the model to set the magnets in deeper, but I didn't have the right size bit to enlarge the hole.

So *then* I tried glue a piece of paper clip in the demon prince's body so the magnets on the wings have something to grab onto. That didn't work because the magnets just pull the paper clip out again.

So I'm at a loss .. how can I magnetize the DP so that his wings can be pulled off (in case I'm playing Demons and don't want to pay for wings.)?

What exactly has gone wrong? The wings being too close together doesn't say a whole lot to me.

I haven't held the new DP kit, so not exactly sure - if you post some pics and highlight where the problem is exactly, though, it should be pretty simple to get it straightened out.
