Are there any? They have new metal officers with fists, but are there any plastic fists small enough to use with IG? I wanted to have a veteran made from cadians and the forge world traitors conversion kit.

I think they'll be too big. A fist from the Rogue Trader Marines might do the trick though.

Regular Chaos Space Marine gloves work just dandy. The older 2nd Edition ones are best, as they are a little chunkier.

Insaniak didn't you do something with a fantasy chaos warrior hand? For the record here's some 2nd edition space marine close combat sprue fists on catachans

Nope. I did this guy and this guy with Chaos Marine hands. Never used Chaos Warriors, though.

First off, why would you ever give a Guardsman anything other than a pat on the back, a ranged weapon, and a nice eulogy? Otherwise, the second edition Eldar combat sprue has a smaller, articulated finger 'Fist. I guess if there aren't any MEQs in your neighborhood...

Good call on the servitor arms. While it might be a little too brutal for some Guard officers (depends on what you're going for techwise), I like that idea quite a bit. #1 would be my choice, with #4 a close second. - Boss Salvage

Why not use the power fist from the old catachan colonel (the one that looks like Arnold S.)? I actually used one on a vet. scout sargeant for my white scars and it looked just small enough to 'fit' but still be recognizable as a PF.

Vet sgts in a vet squad are invisible power fist options, not much but it's something.

Invisible in a lot of ways... w00t!!! Strength 6 baby! Another option for the 'Fist could be bionics, a la Michael Ironside in Starship Troopers. Great for also representing the fig's expected lifespan. 'The Mobile Infantry made me the man I am today!'
