hmm...who else is in the squad, and what weapons are on those bikers ? the twin LC is tempting, but if you have meltas on 2 bikes then a powerfist would be in order :]

a power fist would be handy (pun intended) for unit champs as they can't be singled out in cc like a character can, which means that they will probably get to swing it. the high str will also help if you run into any dreads of monsterous critters.

And you know, in some stories people can retract their claws into the fists...

Good luck modeling that, without it looking like a standard power fist

well i suppose he could try using LC's and then cutting the actual blades off ? you at least have an argument for LC's then, cause there are extra metal cuffs there. and paint 4 black points on the cuff to show where the claws emerge ? :]
