Panzer IV - Magnatized Schurzen

Here are some pics of my Panzer IV with Magnatized Schurzen from Plastic solider, I did this so I could get 5 Panzer IV's and use them in early, mid and late war.

Overall the magnets were easy to attach and its a snug fit, I'm still working out how to do the turret schurzen, but I kinda like the look without it >.<

So... Where are the other magnets attached? Just above the tread?

The bogies are just the right size to fit magnets in them, it's tricky to see but the first and fourth upper bogies have the magnets in them.

Tks! Umm itty bitty ones? Not sure the size is like a few mm, they're the ones mini wargamming use for magnatizing small guns like flamers and what not. When I get back to Canada I'll check.

Thank you sir. I'd appreciate that.

I picked up the same set as you and thought your idea was BALLS awesome! Sorry, but I has to borrow it

Its certainly a good idea!

I rarely magnetize anything, and I usually just buy doubles when I need different options, lol!
