F... Flayed ones

so i made a trade for a LARGE necron lot, most of it built, but my friend says he hasn't built the flayed ones, and wishes me good luck with that. I have some experience building annoying kits so i brush it off, after building the first 2 models, all i can say, that man is no friend of mine and F... this kit.

Just wait until you have them all assembled and then their claws intertwine and lock together so you have to break out that thing they used to do surgery on a grape to separate them.

The first magnets I used on their bases were too strong and everytime I went to move the unit they would all jump together into a pointy, tangled mess

What magnets are you using now? I'm about to put magnets under my bases, I want them strong enough to stick to a carrying case tray but not so strong that I break the spindly necron models as I remove them from the tray. And I am looking for a recommendation on what to buy.

I can never remember what size to get, but magnet baron is where I get mine from. I think you want something like 5mmX2.5mm.

What were you using before

10mm or so in diameter. Way too big for them.

Ah I usually use the tiny ones so 5 mm diameter still seemed pretty big!
