Seriously... What's going on with the 5-limbed Genestealer climbing over Terminator armour and holding a Terminator helmet? It's like looking at an Escher painting!

I hadn't noticed. I'll have to check it out when I get home.

Perhaps the termy that it shredded ripped off his arm?

Yeah, I was trying to figure out why it is the Space Hulk Genestealers seem to only have three arms.

IIRC, it's not just one of the models- it's all of the Space Hulk Genestealer models, is it not?

No; most of them have the full number of arms. It's only a couple that are missing them.

actually its jsut one "clone-type" that is missing an arm. many only have 5 extremities but thats because the model fused arm and leg or two arms.

but the initally mentioned stealer only has 3 arms. I'm going with the termie-incident explanation ^^

I'm going to model an extra arm on to both of mine - probably taken from a regular genestealer sprue.

Prehaps those stealers are the last 5 "out of the vat" so to speak and they were running low on DNA soup for the extra arm.

The 3-armed genestealers are busting out of the floor so I can understand the lack of arms/legs for that model. However, the 5-limbed 'stealer is an abomination, an escher style model as was previously mentioned. It's kinda funny because it's prominently displayed in White Dwarf as a show of how well done the new sculpts are. Hasn't anyone told them that 4 of the 'stealers in the box are missing a limb? How did this escape anyone/everyone at GW/Citadel?

Not that it will make any difference to me, I'll still play the hell out of this game!

Same here. I'll only add the extra arms as a modeling project. And funnily enough, the 5-limbed stealers are actually my favourite poses.
