Speed Freaks Trukks

I've been playing around with orky lists, and have looking harder at the Speed Freeks list.
I do like the zoomy detachments they have, and my eye was caught by the Warbands where the foot units are mounted in trukks. For 200 points you get one Nobz unit, three Boyz, four Trukks, plus any any four from Scorchas, Warbikes or Warbuggies. Also the Nobz and Boyz can fire while mounted in the trukks (albeit not very well but, hey). So that's 12 units that travel at 35cm for 200 points - not bad! You can also go Big for 375 points or 'Uge for 550.

I had a few of the Defeat in Detail Skinnerz flatbed trucks gathering dust so I thought I'd maybe make up a detachment just to get me started. Then I got to thinking how I'd represent the boyz as mounted rather than in contact with the trukks. I don't really want to balance stands precariously across the trukks - I would if I had to, but bleh. I could model boyz onto the beds, but how to show when they were dismounted? Then some inspiration crept stealthily across my forebrain, as it often does at 3 in the morning. On checking the models (later in the day) it seems that the beds on all of the truck models are 8mm wide and about 15mm deep (but also open to the rear), so I reckon I'll be able to go for something slightly larger than the minimum base size (which is 20mm x 5mm) and still fit 3 figures on it, with only a slight overhang over the back of the trukk. Result? Well I'll have to see if I can really get 3 models (the minimum number of infantry models per base) onto something about 20mm x 8mm. Only time will tell.

I may also drop in a small magnet into the trukk bed and boyz base - I wouldn't want the boyz falling off as they career over the landscape, now would I?
