I'm talking the HYMP and Rail Gun. I like both options and I don't want to buy 12 broadsides to have 2 squads of each. Thank you.

Magnetize the arm sockets? and where the one arm meets the H-Rail Rifle? I believe they are 2 different sets of arms, but it could also be magnetizing the "Elbow" joint on one arm to accept the pod or the Rail Rifle.

Cut the ball joints in half, put a strong magnet it them (really strong), cover it with GS. Then put a magnet in the arm sockets. For the Rail Rifle hands, I think those just fit together without glue and you can have them hanging.

I've done this recently for a client. I used 3mm x 2mm neodymium magnets which were fine for the HYMP arms but not quite strong enough to support the rail rifle - this was easily solved by adding a small pin. I also put two pins where the arm joins the rail rifle which made the whole thing much more secure.

You can see where the pins and magnets are here:



I'm sure there are different ways of doing it that would work just as well, but hopefully this will be of some help to you.
