Well, first you should decide what kind of army you want to play. Orks have a variety of playstyles, however each require you to build your list accordingly around the main focus. Some examples are flootslogging horde, mechanized, Nob bikers, dread bash, battlewagon spam, etc.

Regardless of the army you choose, both the AoBR starter set and the Ork battleforce are great sets to start. The AoBR set gives you a Warboss, 20 Boyz, 5 Nobs and 3 Deffkoptas right off the bat. The battleforce is a nice addition, giving you more Boyz, 3 bikers and a trukk. You can experiment using the bikers as Nob bikers, and/or mount a squad of Boyz in the trukk and test out different strategies.

Ya that what i'm thinking about getting.  Then i going try have a warboss with his temy nobs. Then get about 20 something lootas. With about 6 orks bikers. and  some sluggas boys?? How that sound? This is like a sum of what i'm thinking about getting.

IMO 20 lootas are  too much. 12 are just fine (4 hits with str7 is just fine  to break a rhino or kill a dp)
biker boyz are not  good. Too many points for not  much  to  do. Nob  Bikerz instead  is  a  killing force.
If you get nobz  on foot, put them  in a trukk
Always  take a  painboy. Always 10 nobz, not less. Always different armory on  them so that to alocate their wounds. Typical nob unit:
1  painboy waaagh! banner
3 nobz  powerklaw.  One gots  ammo runt, the other boss pole
3 nobz big choppa. One gots ammo runt, the other boss pole
3 nobz choppa. One gots  ammo runt, the other boss pole.
All nobz got 'eavy armour. All nobz got cyborg bodies.
If you want to make a  nob biker unit, try this stats, and give them bikez.Remove 'eavy armour, as the  bikez give them one. If you want to see their force get  2 units like this. Put some lootas  with  them (to open the  rhinos/vindis e.t.c. and watch them win and not die at all. Your friends  will hate you.)
For each nob unit, get  a boss to make them troop. Boss is  tunk hunter. He's also a killing machine (6x str10 attacks kills almost everything). Give him power klaw, eavy armour, cyborg body, squig. Always keep him in the unit.
You may think that those are too many points to spent in a unit. If you see this unit  on stage, you will reconsider this. Always remember that as you got different kidz, they allocate wounds separately. (don't remove a kid for every 2 wounds. Just say "hmm, this one goes  here, and the other one there). 


Then you could get some shoota boyz. 30 boyz on foot are just 225poits, but every opponent will hunt them, instead of  other units you got. You could always put them in a battle wagon. You  may think that   BS2 is not  good, but think of the 60+(depends on the big shootas) shots you will fire. Something will die there mister. And then. 3 attacks in charge are not bad at  all. You don't need the off-hand. 

After all those, you could think of more  special units. Everything in the ork codex is  worth (well, almost everything) if you know how to play it.. This is why every good player is  afraid of us, and this is why they call us broken-army. We just love to be broken.

(try a boomgun  on a looted  wagon. get a  rhino you got, paint it red, and put a cannon on it. 43" range(with moving 7"), str8AP3. We  just love it. Deff  koptas outflanking with TL-rokkits. Skorcha buggies killing hordes for 45  points. e.t.c. Orkz are  a treasure dude.. LoL)

LoL.. np dude.

As for the magic  orks:
The weirdboy e.t.c. are  not worth the points at all. They are just fluffy  units. But if you make a really  strong army, you can  put something fluffy just for fun. (Never put snikrot and/or kommandos. We say  we go fluffy but  not  stupid! LoL).
