Does anyone know of a box that contains an extended terminator right arm with an open end (i.e. no hand/weapon attached)? I have a right hand w/weapon that I want to use for my HQ in termie armor, but the arm provided in the box crosses over the body and looks terribly awkward when assembled. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

You could find a GK Terminator arm, which don't have hands and come in different poses.

Or a general term arm and cut off the hand.

Yeah, I thought about that. Those terminator arms have an aesthetic that is unique to the GK, and I'm looking for an arm for a Wolf Lord. The GK glyphs and such on the elbows aren't very wolfy, but it looks like that may be my only option. Thanks for the reply.

Thought about this as well, but I noticed the wrist guard usually overlaps the hand, which doesn't allow for a very clean cut. Oh well. Again, thanks for the reply.

The words on the elbow of the GK arm are very easily filled actually. I use a pair of GK TDA arms for my rune priest.

The terminator chaplain has an outstretched stormbolter arm.

I had difficulty finding usable arms for 2-handed weapons on Terminators for my Starcraft Project. I got around it by using a combination of GK knight, Chaos Lord and Space Wolf arms along with GK open hands for the Nemesis weapons. I also ended up GSing a few hands in as well, which was fiddly, but not too bad. I also found taht the GK arms can be relatively easily de-GKified with a sharp knife

With regard to the wrist guard, you can actually drop the hand while keeping the guard relatively easily. Just a bit of care needed during surgery. Example below with Tychus.

Good ideas, guys. Yeah, it looks like I'll probably just go with the GK termie arms. Just to be sure, they don't cross over the body, right?

It depends on the arms, there are some that are made to two hand a nemesis halberd & some that are off to the side more & some that are forward.
