I am working on a conversion project for my Thousand Sons army. I am trying to stick with a pre-heresy theme and I want to create some Prospero Spireguard (the IG regiment assigned to the Thousand Sons) with melee weapons as a replacement for Tzaangors. The Spireguard are described as wearing greatcoats and shakos, which I have found bits for; however I am at a loss for what arms to use. I have looked through the entire GW catalog as well as many 3rd party bits sellers. Typically 28mm melee arms are either bare (think Chaos marauders), or fully armored (SM assault squads, AoS full plate, etc) or are way to fine (Elf, Dark Eldar, etc) to fit on the slightly stockier human bodies. I am looking for any suggestions for arms bits that would work with Imperial Guardsmen with melee weapons. Specific weapons are not a concern as I have plenty of power/chainswords and pistols from various kits.
