I picked up an ironjawz start collecting box, a megaboss, and a box of brutes.
Any suggestions on what else I may need to make it a realistic list.
I honestly picked them up because I like the models. I will be getting a Maw-krusha in he near future as well.

Do you want to stick specifically with Ironjawz, or are you open to allies or doing some of the mixed Warscroll Battalions in the book?

Also, The Ironjawz Weirdnob Warband(a Skirmish themed box) is a good buy. 5 Ardboys, 5 Brutes, and a Weirdnob for a discounted price. Gives you a full unit of 15 Ardboys with your SC, another 5 Brutes, and a Wizard.

I'd be open to a mixed Warscroll Battalions as well. I'm more of a collector but I want to start playing the game I've bought plenty of models for.

In that case, start with the box I linked you. Build towards the other stuff.

You can't go wrong with multiples of the box I linked or the SC either. Gore-Gruntas are $79 by themselves or $85 in a SC box.

I didn't even notice that, thanks for pointing it out.

Yeah, the Start Collecting and Skirmish boxes are a great way for people to build an army on a budget.

Going off what you said you have right now and looking strictly at stuff in the (soon to be replaced) General's Handbook you'll be sitting at 720 points.
Adding in the skirmish box would give you another 300 points and an understrength unit of Ardboys(minimum unit size for them in Matched Play is 10, you get 5 in the Skirmish set since you can take smaller units there).
Getting two Skirmish boxes($65 each) gives you another 780 points. It brings in two Weirdnobs($33 each), ten Brutes($50 each), and ten Ardboys(fifteen of them are $53 each).

So two boxes at $130 gives you around $219 worth(can't really price the Ardboys out at the moment since you get 15 in a box now) of stuff and a good chunk of an army that benefits from having large numbers of models.

Also, sorry for throwing math at you. Just making sure you're informed.

Can't go wrong with a maw krusha either. They aren't bad and are really fun, especially the character one.
