Unsure if anyone has the same issue I do.
I have 3 vet boxes and not one has the right arm that is the pic to use when arming the moadel with a special weapon. It is a completely independent weapon so the left arm has the bent arm upturned open hand for the gun to rest in while the right arm gos down bends 90 degrees with closed fist. Anyone know how where to get that right arm?
As well the big banner and pole for it which again is shown in the assembly guide doesn't exist on the sprue, WTF?

Strange, my brother has bought 4 boxes of veterans so far (over the space of 3 years) and each has had all the options you say aren't there, are they all from the same batch? Could possibly be a packaging error?

Different batches maybe I am blind. On which of the three sprues did he find the right arm and the long banner pole?

The assembly guide probably shows the banner from the command squad. I bet there is also an image of a robed apothecary there as well yeah?

I am sensing a build up here and...

Ok what i was saying is that they are probably showing you some of the possibe conversions you can achieve with the Dark Angels Vets. Like you can either use them as vets, disseminate through your army as squad leaders, use them as robed command squad marines, etc etc.

You don't get any right arms that aren't attached to weapons in the DA Vets box

edit: to clarify, you would need to get it from a Tactical Squad box or Command Squad box.
