Subject: Strange question: What are the small armor plates for in the Ork Nobs box?

There are narrow armor plates in the Ork Nobs box set and I'm not sure what they are for. There are plates that are clearly shoulder plates, and others that seem like they meant for the arms. But there are narrow plates that might be for between the shoulder plates that look a little strange when placed there.
Has anyone figured out what these are for?
(picture of these plates are in the bottom left image, and are the four most narrow plates in the lower right of the picture)

I'm no expert but I thought all those things in that image were shoulder pads.

I think you should put them between your shoulderpads/ over the neck

The real threat to the imperium is not:
     
it is : 
92% of teens have moved on to rap. If you are one of the 8% who still listen to real music, copy and paste this into your sig.
95% of teens would go into a panic attack if the jonas brothers were about to jump off the empire state building copy and paste this if you are the 5% who would pull up a lawn chair grab some popcorn and yell JUMP BITCHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GENERATION 6: The first time you see this, copy and paste it into your sig and add 1 to the number after generation. Consider it a social experiment. |

They ARE for in between the Shoulder armour plates, it's to hide the seam between the front and back halves of the body.

Orks don't have junk!
They reproduce through spores. An Ork picks its nose and flicks it.. it settles down into a crevice somewhere and another ork grows.
Dats why deys no girly orks... apart from Blood Bowl, but dats jus prossfetiks and red paint. Damn crazy Doks..

Gotcha. I went back and tried them again and like them a bit more there now that I fiddled with which shoulder plates to match them up with.
Thanks.

Anyone who asks "what are these extra bits for" who's playing orks needs to remember that they're playing orks.
They have no direct use. You use them for whatever you want or need!

Obviously the bits can be cut into different forms, but when turned over they clearly have a cast section on the bottom side that I now realize mates cleanly to the torn shirt section behind the neck and clearly have a direct use.
