Hey, I know this has probably been posted a few times before but is there any online store I can get power armoured lightning claws? I know SW's have some but I hate the pose and converting my DV csm claws wouldnt be worth it IMHO (rather have a cool model  )
but yeah, I'm looking for any kind of LC, even 3rd party look alikes

I have half a mind to kill you, and the other half agrees |

The SM commander box has a left handed one I believe. And they're a bit chaosy but the new warp talon set has a bunch of them in the box. Check ebay for both they seemed reasonably priced.

As far as I know the actual fist part of LCs is the same for Terminator and PA claws. You just need to cut the fists away below the elbow. Alternatively Chapterhouse do 3rd part versions and GW sell them as part of their Sternguard weapons set and I'm pretty sure you can get some from Forgeworld as well.. Pretty much all the usual suspects
Or make your own from plasticard:

The SW claws aren't that hard to change pose for, and if you have the left one from the commander box you don't even have to fiddle with removing the skull from the SW one. Terminator LCs are bigger, a lot of people still use them though, cut at the elbow as Flinty mentioned.
Here's two I tinkered together from the SW/commander claws. Not too much of a hassle.

Termie ones are a bit bigger, don't look bad but you need to be careful how you convert and maybe cut them down a bit. I did a really effective conversion with termie claws for a Vet unit, can be done.

CSM : you got 10 of them in the warp talon / raptor box.
Chapterhouse also does some LC. I used them on this model :
