heya when i first saw these yesterday ...my first thought was "can i fit a Nobz head on them to make mega Nobz?"

now I don't know the size of these guys yet but at $140 for 6 of them..they can't be that small  either that or GW is shafting us, i;m hoping these guys are big enough to fit an ork head on em...

I think they have some potential as Meganobz but you'll need to add some more armor plates and orky bitz to look proppa 'ard. There's been some buzz on reddit that the two blokes with conductive coils on their backs would make for good Big Meks with KFF.

You could, but the posture is completely different. Orks don't have their heads above their shoulders, their spine basically goes at a right angle at that point.

If these Ogryn are the same size as the Imperial Guard ones, these aren't Nob-sized, they're bigger than a Warboss.

Just make a warboss with one of these then as well to match. These look to be the same base size, plus if they are not, HQ characters have more leway with base sizes anyway. Looking foward to the conversions guys.

Well don't tell anyone but... i beat my Ork's daily with a big stick to make them stand up straighter... 

 

@Dumah - awesome idea on the coils...   and yeah if I do get some then some appropriate orkiness will be added !

 

@ Gederas - if they're bigger than a warboss then how big are Nobz in Mega Armor?...

Going off normal Gw sizes for things they will be Ogryn/AoS Ogor size. Good for warboss conversion fodder but way too big to be a man. Maybe completely plate them over and bad moon kanz? If go on right size bases they will be about right size

The heads will have to be swapped anyway. Just put the orky ones on at more of an angle.

Well, looks like I just found a backpack for my warboss- thanks for bringing these to my attention!
