I don't know who's behind the most recent Ork models for Warhammer 40K, but frankly, they're knocking it out of the park – and a new hero to lead them has just been revealed. No, I don't mean the Ork Boss Nob. I mean the teeny little guy that's perched upon his shoulder.
Sure, the Ork is impressive - this chap will be leading your greenskin footsoldiers (Ork Boyz) through intimidation in the Warhammer 40K 11th Edition launch box, and he cuts quite the intimidating figure. Well, that's an understatement; an Ork Boss Nob is a manager from hell. Job security? Nah, you're fuel for the great Waaaagh. Dental? Only if it means he can give you a bionic jaw, all the better for chomping on puny Space Marines. Career progression? Forget it, unless by progression you mean "on the end of a rocket, at speed." However, all eyes are being drawn to the tiny squig sat on him like a parrot. The vast majority of reddit comments surrounding the reveal are all about this delightful monster, with user cruisin_urchin87 summing up all our feelings with "Tactical rock and tactical squig? Hell yeah boyz." Goldman250 then replies, "Tactical Squig? No, that’s a Tactical Ork the Squig Boss Nob is standing on." I agree. The squig's the real brains of this operation, clearly. The Imperium better beware.
