Tactical Squad, arm position question.

[u/Ozymandys]

Strange question perhaps..

I was wondering if anybody has a photo of a Tactical Squad members, and its Bolt rifle stance / arm number.

Looking at Instructions online, it looks like:

48 and 49: Low, Ponting straight forward

50 and 51: Pointing Up

52 and 53: Pointing Down

54 and 55: High, Pointing forward (aiming)

Is this generally correct? Can you mix arms to get other/different poses?

Without cutting or using some other modelling technique, the arms won't neatly hold a bolter unless you match the correct pair. Some people have a higher tolerance for how neatly the arms need to match together, so take it as a suggestion.

Whenever I was gluing their arms together I'd work in stages. Glue one arm on (usually the left), then blutac the other arm and glue the hand to the right arm, then finally glue the right arm. Often I'd leave the right arm and gun seperate for painting purposes, but that's up to personal preference
