Doom Scythe & Night Scythe Magnetization Recommendations

The Doom Scythe and Night Scythe share one plastic kit, so a few magnets let you swap between the death ray gunship and the troop-shuttle transport without committing to a single role. Below are our picks for the kit swap, the flight stand, and the base.

Kit: Doom Scythe and Night Scythe Dual-Build

The two variants share the same hull and wings — the difference is the underside weapon mount. The Doom Scythe carries the death ray (a single heavy beam slung beneath the fuselage), while the Night Scythe carries the transport portal (a flat dimensional gateway plate that lets it deliver Warriors and Immortals into the fight). Magnetizing the underside mount is the only swap you need; everything else on the airframe stays identical between builds.

Flight Stand

You can use either a posable or flat kit for the flight stand.

The Extra Large Posable is your posable option, anything smaller doesn't have the power to hold the model upright.

Large Flat – Tall is your flat flight stand choice.

For a basing magnet, use the Large Thick Flush-Fit Base Magnets, 6mm x 2.6mm. You will want to use 1 magnet if you transport the base separately and 2 if you transport the model on flight stand on the base.

If you would like a base with holes preset for magnets so the magnets can never pop out, use the 120mm oval base with magnet.

For a peel-and-stick basing option, use 3 of the 25mm Peel & Stick Inner Base Magnets spaced in a triangle inside the base — no drilling required.
