Hi, I'm looking for alternative power fists for my Crimson Fists project. GW ones are crazy price for single bits (£1.50 + postage for 1 is a joke, especially when all my models are cheap eBay rescues).

I've been looking at Anvil Industries and like their arm sets, look good quality for a reasonable price, does anyone know of a company that does similar sets with power fists?

Ideally they'd be in the UK/Europe (cheap postage) and have a variety of poses so I can get a small stock.

I like the look of those fists, but the style might be wrong for SM.

Yeah they'd be cool for CSM, but not quite what I'm looking for.

Fair enough, I just think they're the coolest Power Fists this side of awesome.

How are pf that hard to find? I have 20ish in my bitzbox. I can't find meltas to save my life.

They aren't if you buy new models but every GW model I have is from eBay, so all I have is a few 2nd edition ones. I just want a pack, like the maxmini ones but more "space mariney".

It's just a modelling project, I don't play 40k so I'm not going to spend real money on it.

Zinge Industries does some.

Do you mean these?

Those Zinge pfs are human scale, ie imperial guard scale. I've seen them on a conversion when I was searching dakka for alternatives. They'd be cool if there wasn't so much pointing nevermind the evil eye one.

It's not looking like there are many options :( I was hoping someone would know of some awesome SM ones.

The first one is actualy a scibor mold for 2 fists, so it's not really that cheap, but they are nice. The second is to a bits store through ebay that constantly rotates through stock and has some power fists up right now. Other than that I'd troll ebay like crazy, there's always bits and fists up for sale just gotta find them and strike while the iron is hot.

Have you browsed puppets war?
Anvil industries?

I second ebay. There are not many 3rd party power fists out there. And they are not really that much cheaper than getting a GW powerfist bit from a bitzshop - you don't need to buy a full GW box just the fists you need.

Check the various bitz stores and sites.. they are still several running strong

If you like I may have some extra power fists at home I'd be willing to send you, if you didn't want to go the alternative route. I'll have a look once I get off work and if I do i'll toss you a pm. How many are you looking for?

Oh man that'd be awesome, PM me if you've got some you don't need and we can sort out details. I need 5 with at least 2 or 3 different styles ideally.

Yeah, like others have said, ebay still has TONS of bits sellers.

GW is actually one of the best places for these. $8 for 5.

As for powerfists, ask around, people will probably give them to you (as several people have offered). Most players have tons extra.

I recomend you go to you lGS around ask around for bits.
