Subject: What could I count this guy as?

As I'm beginning my Orks I really want to incorporate my Runt Bot into my army somehow. For those who don't know what a Runt Bot is I'm talking about this guy
I've been thinking that if I could model a weapon onto the shoulder or somewhere like that, I could count it as a Killa Kan. However, I am very reluctant to risk cutting it up, as I painted it to (at least, I think is) an excellent standard. What else could I count it as, as to be honest, there is no Ork unit or character which has just 2 Power Klaws and nothing else, or could I model something else onto the base, or even as a representative model, which would let me count it as something else (such as a Grot carrying the aforementioned Killa Kan weapon)
Thanks,
|

I reckon Warboss is your best bet IMHO, combine him with some Mek's and lots of Kans/vehicles and you've got a nice theme!
Otherwise, maybe a Deff Dread or Killa Kan as you said? It may be a bit small for a dread but it's got the choppy weapons.
Mind if I request a picture of yours painted?

Yeah sure. Here's a size comparison photo I took ages ago with an unfinished Ironclad.
The base was still unfinished in that photo.
A Warboss would be a good idea, especially one with a Cybork Body. Maybe it could count as a Big Mek also

Wow! That does look good! V. Nice!
I think you could count it as many things to be fair!  I think a Warboss would work best IMHO but yes, a cybork body would be most suitable (if an understatement!) and a Mek would work well also!

Thanks  Yeah I'll go for a Big Mek or a Warboss. There's like some fancy mechanical stuff round the back which I could count as a KFF.

Are his FW rules so obscene that your locals won't let you use them? Unless you're playing tournaments, I see no reason why that guy can't stomp the field with his own stats.

He doesn't have any stats. He's one of the FW Event Only models, which really aren't meant to have stats.

Yep, pretty much.
Just use whatever HQ and pay the points for an Attack Squig. Same result as an extra Power Klaw.
Problem solved.
