just got these models in today, a 10- man tactical squad and 4 bikes.

The imperial fist and the purple/green guy with gold trim(Pimp Marine?) are gonna be easy to clean and re-primer, but the bikes are so heavily coated in primer that they're wearing mittens and the bikes are no better.

Now, I'm a cheapskate and I don't want to buy whole marines just for different weapons load-outs.

so I'm wondering.

Should magnetize the arms or install pins?

I've just done my first magnetizing project of a unit of wraith guard into all possible variants. I'm never looking back.. Magnetizing is the way to go from now on.

Only made 2 mistakes where the polarization somehow came out wrong which wasn't bad going for 18 magnets+holes per model...
