Where can you get them?

I'm going to assume you mean for Space Marines.

I'd imagine there would be Combi options in the Space Marine Commander kit. And judging by the pic i think there is at least one combi melta in the Sternguard kit.

and you can always make them yourself by hacking up weapons and converting your own combi weapons

chapter house sells a magnetic combi weapon kit

There's a combi-melta and combi-plasma in the plastic Space Marine Commander kit, and the old metal Sternguard had them as well. So far GW has not made a combi-flamer, but you can easily convert your own with a bolter, half a krak grenade for a fuel tank and the barrel of the Ork slugga that looks a little like a flamer nozzle.

There's also a new veteran upgrade kit that gives you combi weapons, other than that best way to do it is cutting up plasma pistols, flamers, and multi meltas/meltas.

Buy them from other companies, like this one : http://eurobitz.com/en/121-warforge

(I give the link quite often, but I swear it's not my company, I'm just a happy customer ^_^ )

There's a couple in the Forgeworld Tartaros Weapons Pack. Although you only get two combis, you get eight 'combi bits' to choose from, and they could, with a bit of work, be added to bolters Plus there's all the other fun bits.

I'd like to second the chapterhouse combi-weapons. They are really top notch.

Other sources for for combi-weapons that haven't been mentioned are chaos terminator arms(c.flamer, c.melta), the FW character pack (c.flamer).

Ebay sometimes had a lot or two of combiweapons if you keep an eye out.

edit: conversions are always an option as well. And they can look better than official sculpts (I'm looking at you failcast sternguard weapon pack, )

I did a Combi-Melta conversion a while back. It might look a bit squiffy from the photos but I'm sure it could be refined to look pretty good.

well, other races i dont know how you could make them and have them look real. Orks on the other hand...

I have one i literally "wired" a rokkit to the bottom of a big shoota and made a thicker wire as a "cable" go from the trigger to the back of the rokkit.

Deff orky lol.

My combi's have been made from a few different sources. I press molded some Flamer and melta nozzles then chopped off the barrel of a bolter moved it up and glued the nozzle below it. I've press molded the commander bits I've also used the commander bits. And I have a chapter house set of combi's. there are tons of tutorials online of how to convert it.

This is the tutorial I used to make most of mine

there was a guy who did a conversion for his scout sarge that used a flamer bit on the end of a fatter bolter, wish I could find the pic.

Sounds a lot like the forgeworld combiflamer from the character conversion set. Making a similar from a regular boltgun, plasticard and a flamer nozzle shouldn't be too hard.

He had the two little pipes and the full nozzle, it was really nice, they were ultramarines.

I just love it when GW gives us the option to do something then not make models for it....

Anyway, you are gonna need to convert some bolters or buy 3rd party

Well, to be fair, they also give us the freedom to convert the hell out of our models. As long as its roughly the same size and follows the rules and guidelines of the game/race, you can do just about anything.

If i really, really wanted to i could have an ork biker group riding raptors or something and get away with it.

If GW made a model for every option, i imagine the rules for custom models would get way stricter or perhaps not even there anymore.

Also, GW does make a model for every combi-weapon available.

just made up some combi-flamers the other day, actually: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/90/436120.page#4878599. these weren't too horrible to hack together and I imagine doing combi-plasma and combi-melta would be even easier (fewer fiddly bits involved)

I was actually kinda referring to actual units too. Like the IG. We get the option to take Griffons, but the only "official" models for them are Forgeworld and are pretty expensive. I know we can convert, but for people like me who just don't have the skill to do that (I have tried. Trust me it wasn't pretty) it kinda sucks.

That can be right. I have a pewter griffon and iirc pewter was citadel's gig.

edit: There's one of the conversion kits on ebay right now even.
