What Are Magnetic Exchange Buildings?

Selected CUBE models feature removable architectural elements that connect securely through an integrated magnetic system. These are usually the tallest, most fragile, or most exposed parts of the model, such as fine towers, narrow structures, or elements with thin antennas.

The magnetic connection keeps these parts securely in place while allowing them to be removed and reattached when needed.

Why Magnetic?

The magnetic system is designed to make the model more durable, easier to handle, and safer to ship. Delicate parts can be packed more securely, reducing the risk of damage during transport.

If one of these elements ever breaks, only the affected part can be replaced instead of the entire model. This helps preserve the model's original look for years to come.

It also allows for more efficient packaging. A smaller shipping box means less packaging material, lower shipping volume, and in many cases more cost efficient delivery for the customer.

Availability

Magnetic exchange buildings are available for selected CUBE models. You can find this information directly on the product page of each CUBE model whenever the magnetic system is included.

This feature is only used where it improves the construction, handling, or shipping safety of the model. Not every city requires magnetic exchange buildings.
