I just had my birthday and my mum gave me an ork war boss, but, I've already got ghazgull and a normal aobr warboss! Does any body have some tips on converting an ork war boss into something else. Help is greatly appreciated.

Depending on your list , but Big meks seems pretty popular in any Ork army.

Pretty fun to convert too!

Go with a Biker Boss. That plus a small squad of Biker Nobz is awesome. Plus, with the boss, you can be really creative with the bike. And his legs to fit around a warbike.

It's the one with the big choppa, how am I supposed to get his legs onto the warbike? The one with the klaw fits on pretty well, but he's already attached to his base...

How about a Mega Armored Warboss?
Not a Ghaz style Mega Armor though.

convert him into wazdakka! the legs actually fit really good around a bike

I got 3 warbosses, one that I run that has been fun and usefull, I only made it for fun originally, is on a warbike with the big choppa, an attack squig, and a cybork body. He has an I 5 on the charge with 6 attacks at St 8. He's fun to play. You can work him out on the bike. File and fit if you can't, don't be afraid to cut.
(I'm aware a PK is a more common upgrade. I'm a rebel.)
The squig I took from the grot box. Good squig arm there. The squig makes the arms size difference practically unnoticeable.
You could also add some wires to the Choppa and connect it to a custom made backpack on the Boss and call it counts as a PK, spam the fight.
Mega Armour isn't a bad idea. In a nob group he still gets FnP if they have a Painboy and aren't mega nobz, and he's cheaper than Ghaz. Whom I love but don't really run that much anymore.

WAZDAKKA is Awesome Fun to play.

I'd personally say keep him. He's a good HQ for lower point games or if you're focusing more on other units to do the damage.

However, if you must cut him up, go with a Big Mek with KFF. I love Wazdakka as well, but I really don't think this is the model to use for him. The loin cloth looks like a pain to cleanly remove, and you couldn't keep either of his arms.
