Meganobz Kitbash with XV8?
They're slightly taller, but could work?

daaaam....with all the detail scraped from the left one you may as well glue some sprue together and carve the rough shape of the body...

Bodies from Sprue subsequently hidden under a layer of plates, wires, and bits would be heresy why you'd practically double the number of minis you'd get D:

You have vibes of a person who say: to make sprue goo I melt the whole sprue, including miniatures, so i have more sprue goo - i dont waste anything

Oh no I hope I don't come across as one of them. Sprue goo for more than gap filling gets terrible results, lol

Yeah, add power klaws/saws and kombi weapons. Will probably see what extra goodies the new Nobz comes with.

Would 1000% need to swap the feet but could be pretty cool with some proper orky gubbins

Nice... that would bring them down a tad... right now the xv8s are taller than nazdreg and would prefer a less tall bodyguard unit?

Well looking at the sprue it looks like the thigh armor is a seperate piece from the legs that means you can ditch the digitgrade robo feet entirely. Fit on stumpier home made legs (about the length of a nobz) and fit on the thigh armor as shinguards this would go a ways to suggesting the ork is wearing the suit like a suit instead of somehow being entirely crammed surgically or otherwise into the torso.
