Yes, a small neo magnet in the main ship and a metal plate on the rear of Junior.

At last - here we are.

Fireball junior is held in place with small magnets.
I'm quite chuffed with the result although I now wish that I'd made it quite a bit bigger.
It's 12.5 inches but I want one at around 24".
Maybe next...

Roy.

Very nice model Roy.

Anything Gerry Anderson based always has great appeal to me.

Happy Modelling

that looks really good, great idea with the magnet so you can separate it, are you doing the carriage underneath?
