Assault Terminator Magnetization Guide

For this guide you will need:

  • Assault Terminator Squad Magnetization Kit
  • Small Hand Drill
  • 3mm Drill Bit
  • Magnicator Tool
  • Super Glue

Step 1:
When building your Assault Terminators, DO NOT glue the front of the upper torso into the Terminator armor housing. This will be the last step after magnets are added — stopping at steps 8B (Sgt), 10B, 11B, 12B, and 13B for each Terminator respectively.

Step 2:
Using a small hand drill and 3mm bit, drill through the Terminator armor housing at either shoulder.

Step 3:
Remove the drill bit from the Terminator armor and dry fit the chest and head section into the upper torso.

Step 4:
Holding the front and back of the Terminator upper torso together, slowly reinsert and drill through the interior of the armor. You may need to drill from both sides to ensure a clean passage.

Pictured below is what the interior of the drilled passage should look like once the upper torso is drilled.

Step 5:
After drilling through the armor successfully, dry fit one of the 3x14mm cylinder magnets included with your kit. The magnet should pass through with no issue. Separate the armor and remove any debris from the drilling process.

Using the BLUE side of your Magnicator, insert a 3x14mm cylinder magnet into the left shoulder, bridging the two drilled holes. Carefully apply a small drop of super glue onto the interior of either shoulder to secure the magnet in place.

Once the super glue is cured, the 3x14mm cylinder magnet will sit as pictured below.

Step 6:
Using the RED side of your Magnicator, apply a disc magnet onto the left arm shoulder with super glue, placing it in the center of the connecting space.

Repeat this process using the BLUE side of your Magnicator for the right arm of each Terminator.

Repeat this process for the Lightning Claws on each model. When done correctly, arms will sit flush against the upper torso of each Terminator and be swappable between each member of the squad.

Step 7:
Glue the front of the Terminator upper torso into place and prepare to bring the Emperor's Divine wrath to all those who oppose The Imperium of Man.
