I'm planning on making a close combat reaver for my titan legion, but I don't know what to use to make it.

I want to use a GW part, so I can put it in on my next mail order form them.

So far I am thinking of either using servo arm 2 or sevitor arm 3 from the tech marine, or possible use the ork mega armour nob power blades.

Any ideas?

Well the original Reaver power fist looked relatively human so you could probably use a slightly modified 40k Space Marine Power glove as well. My personal preference would probably depend on the type of titan in question: The SG version - Marine Glove. FW version: Servitor fist.

A bit humanoid, but as WMN pointed out, good for the SG Reaver:
Old Termie Chainfist

or

Ork Buzzsaw

The Space Marine (not Tech Marine) Servitor Arm 1 might work as well.

EDIT: Oops, you said powerfist, not chainfist. Servitor Arm 1 would make a good chainfist.

For what it's worth, the classic fiend of Slaanesh claws are about the right size to make a good power fist for a chaos reaver.

Don't waste points on a C/Cbt weapon ... mount a long ranged weapon, like a Battle Cannon, Las-Cannon, etc. ... :D

From trying this sort of thing myself, I have to say the Terminator parts were a bit too small. I've ended up sculpting my own, which is taking forever.

One alternative you could try would be Witch hunter Tyrus's powerfist from the Inquisitor range.
Pic below.

Regards,
Reaver

I've decided to get a pair of the tech marine servo arms as well as a pair of servitor arm 4.  I'll see what I can kit bash from them.

I thought about Tyrus' powerfist, but i looks too big and fist like.

And L4, if I was planning on using anything near tactics I would nuke the battle field form orbit rather than use giant bipedial war machines  :D

Couldn't Reaver just take a picture of his own fist, so ragnarok (another guy who posts here, and is not a Baran tank) could use, and sculpt his own?
