They possess four magnets on their bodies, two attached to the top head, and two attached to the bottom heads, using the latter two as legs. The tips of each magnet are coated in tufts of iron filings, with tufts of similar shape and size existing on the top of the main head's body, and as a tail. They have yellow eyes and the main head has purple markings that look like eyeshadow and four black dots resembling a mouth.
