The Arjac that I bought had a very thin shield too, with holes poking through some parts. I backed it with green stuff. My friend who plays space wolves also has one in his army, and his shield was like that too, so he completely replaced it with a different shield from warhammer fantasy.

Good luck, I know how nasty that shield can be

The one I got had a lot of flash near the head and hand, and the long handle part was really thin and flimsy. I ended up accidently clipping part off of the hammer and had to repair it with green stuff and bits. Maybe you should get a replacement if you don't want to go through that

Or you could even replace the arm with another space wolf thunder hammer? Just add bits and make it look extra ancient and special

Thats good then. Good luck with the model
