I'm rebuilding my Iron Warriors army, and one thing I want to do it go heavier on bionics, and actual servo arms adn the likes on champions, Warsmiths, etc. I've seen a few good third-party ones, so I'm open for suggestions for:

-Good GW kits to get actual servo arms from
-Good GW kits I could convert them from (like the Dark Eldar Talos' vestigial arms)
-Third party mechanical limbs adn the likes (preferably resin, but I can work with metal too)

Throw what you got at me, folks!

Oh, the Zinge ones are nice! And the BA command box has servo parts/bionics? Mind showing me the one you mean?

At first I thought those were a bit too Orky, but now I think that, with a little converting, those might do...

Also, does anyone know where this servo arm came from?

Neat model, but I don't see any servo arms. That torso and helmet could come in handy, though!

Unfortunately that BA piece is fairly difficult to come by these days, 3rd ed. was a while ago.

Kromlech have 4 bionic versions of their space legionary legs:

Standing -http://bitsofwar.com/home/75-space-legionary-bionic-legs.htmlhttp://bitsofwar.com/home/75-space-legionary-bionic-legs.html

Anvil do arms, legs and heads, too, just make sure anything you grab is in exo-lord (marines) scale rather than regiments (guard):

Nah, that model's nice - but that servo arm doesn't look anything like the one in the image I linked.

If you are doing it for Chaos, use the Warpsmith as a basis. Get a Green Stuff Tentacle maker, roll your own tubes/hoses and give it a Doctor Octopus vibe! After all, it is Chaos. Give each tendril a sense of movement and just add bits for the weapon ends.

What is best in life? To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women. Grrr.

For mechatendrils, that's fine; I want those and true-blue servo arms and the likes as well! It's Iron Warriors; they're Warsmiths, not Warpsmiths!
