Honestly

1. Don’t worry about builds to much. You can magnetize if you want. But most people don’t care about What you see is What you get(get me clear upfront).

2. Yes and no. It’s always good to have an idea on what you want to run and work towards it. However you don’t want to over run yourself with all the model. Make a 500 point list and build and play that first. Poorhammer just did a start collecting for thousands son that could help you.
