Lord_Mephistopheles Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Hi folks. Hoping someone can help me out with ideas. I'm looking for a bit that could pretend to be a power fist for one of the 54mm scale Inquisitor Astartes. I'm currently having delusions of trying to put together one (or both) of: a) an M41 Squad of Astartes, combined with possibly a captain just for the look (probably BA, and if my converting skills don't let me down I'll even have a crack at doing Mephy!) :) one captain from each Legion (pre-Heresy) to represent the gathering at Ullanor. What I'd really like is to find something suitable for a power fist, as mentioned. Replica got his hands on one (see Replica's 54mm Astartes), but didn't know where it came from. If anyone can identify this part or suggest a suitable alternative, preferably with a weblink as Google-fu has repeatedly failed to turn up anything of real use, I would be forever grateful. As a small sweetener to the deal, should I ever get around to it, I swear on the Throne that I'll post a detailed WIP of either or both of the projects mentioned! Help? Please?

Olis Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 As is said in the linked thread the Fist doesn't look like it's of GW origin, and the supposition it's from a warjack I'd say was good. Which one, though, I haven't got a clue. As for 54mm power fists I know Witch hunter Tyrus has one (a righty) from the Inquistor range. Hope this helps. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/233491-help-with-finding-a-suitable-part/#findComment-2810994 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Mephistopheles Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 Yeah - looked at the Tyrus fist, but it's more lightning-claw-y than power-fisty. Ideally I'm looking for something with 'proper' fingers.

ilnar Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 As has been said, one of the war jack fists would fit nicely. None of the other powered fists in that scale that I've seen would fit a marine.

Lord_Mephistopheles Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 The Warjack fists would be great, but all the 'Jacks I've looked at don't seem to have a power fist that looks anything like in the current range, unless i'm being particularly stupid.

Olis Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 I think if you use a warjacks fist it'll require modifying (like the fist in the linked thread). Perhaps getting parts from the dreadknight might help?

madscuzzy Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 The fist from the dreadknight or a vendread CCW with hand might work. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/233491-help-with-finding-a-suitable-part/#findComment-2811304 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durus Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 If it's from a warmachine warjack it's probably from either the Cygnar or Protectorate of Menoth line. Due to the nobs on the knuckles I'd say it probably came from Menoth, if it really was from a warjack. But it would still require a lot of converting to make it into a powerfist. Maybe you can find a suitable - and cheaper - toy/actionfigure instead of a warjack.
