    GW sells a pack of 5 lightning claws. They are metal, but they will work. Otherwise you'll just need to hunt them down...but I almost guarantee you'll pay more than for the pack

    And they are also the ones for the old metal terminators.

    I think the ones from the Space Wolf Set would be better as they are plastic - you might just have to e-bay them or go to a bits site.

    I prefer the older metal lightning claws to what the marines have now. Maybe your best trying to find someone with, or on ebay the lightning claws from the assault terminator box set.

    Warstore perhaps, that's American.

    There's no difference unless part of the arm is included...at which point you simply remove it.

    I'm only suggesting it, as most bits shops are for more expensive than the GW bits packs

    I would also suggest checking out Ebay.

    There are several models armed with dual claws that GW does sell,

    http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/ca...Id=prod1060047

    That's a vet with a single claw and a bolt pistol, but I know that model, you can exchange the pistol arm, if you can find another claw arm.

    Here's another one with dual claws in power armor:

    http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/ca...Id=prod1060049

    You can also get lightning claw bits off the space marine commander sprue.

    Good judgement comes from experience, alot of that comes from bad judgement
