I was adding up how much for 35 Mega Boys,.. and WOW!

Over $400!!!!

maybe one of you lot knows a way to make em'? you could give me some pointers maybe?

**loota boy**

First off, why on earth do you need 35 of the suckers?! I wouldn't buy one. I don't know what GW will do with them, but my guess is that they will boost them in the next 'Dex and sell them as finecast in sets of 3 with limited weapons options for around $45 or $50. For now, I would just bulk up some regular nobz with plasticard or something. That's what I did, and they look pretty good.

Nice! you hasve pics? im going to take a peek at your gallery...

**loota boy**

Heh, Thanks. Unfortunately, I don't have any gallery pics, but I just started a P&M blog (like, literally just today) and you can check that out if you like. I'll see if I can get my MANz up on there sometime soon. My blog is called Loota Boy's Junkyard Orks: Scratchbuilt and Converted Models. I hope you like it.

I wouldn't be surprised if the next time Orks got plastic kits they got a new Meganob box. 3 for $41-$50 sounds plausible, if not exactly ideal. Given their size, I could even see them going for the 5 for $50 that Terminators go for.

It's an ideal unit to get a new kit alongside the next Codex, but not before (not enough options in the current rules).

It cost us Australians $1,050 AUD for 35 Mega Nobs

I think a box of three is much more likely, as units of three work perfectly fine on their own, and people would have to buy four boxes to field a full unit. Getting more models than needed for a full unit is also common across all ork boxes, like lootaz/burnaz or boyz.
