With the right drill bit the hole is perfect for the magnets to just drop into, so I grabbed the Cap figures and did all of them. Took about 2 hours of work for the entire process. All of them got the same number of contact points - 1 each forearm & 1 center back. Each spot has multiple stacked magnets along with multiples stacked on each shield. The bonds are very strong so there's no worry about the shields going anywhere. I patched up most holes with apoxy and paint so they're not evident. Lastly I'm adding removable shoulder harnesses to each figure to give something realistic that the shield's would be latching onto rather than free floating on the figure's back. And I realize now that I forgot Battlestar, but I'll fix him up another time.

Nice job with the shields I know how it is to have a ton of fodder and a creative mind salute to that bro.....
