Cortana (Halo 4 Spoilers)

Don't read this if you're a fan of the HALO series and haven't finished it yet.


I've recently noticed the spike in people visiting my review of the Halo 3: Cortana figure. I was wondering what all the sudden interest was all about.

Then I finished Halo 4, and I was absolutely thrown into a depressing fit.

Cortana dies.

It's just not fair! It's not right! I've been fighting side-by-side with Cortana since 2001!

I don't get how the Master Chief can go on knowing that he made a promise to a girl that he can't keep when he promised to get her home and that everything will be alright.

Such a dumb ending to a wonderful series. Almost as stupid as the ending to Mass Effect 3.

A major F U to 343.

Rest in peace Cortana.

Halo 3: Cortana - Mcfarlane Toys Series 1

Presenting Halo's Cortana  from McFarlane Toys Halo 3 Series 1 collection.  If you've played any of the three original Halo games or even read the novels, then you should be quite familiar with the AI sidekick of the Spartan Master Chief - although everybody would probably agree that technically, the Master Chief is the haughty Cortana's  muscle sidekick. The McFarlane Halo 3 Series Cortana  stands approximately 4.5 - inches tall - taller than your average G.I. Joe figure - not including the base. Cortana  has absolutely NO articulation. Cortana  is  just sculpted in her sexy, no-nonsense "I'm hot and I know it and oh I'm better than you" pose." She is sculpted out of semi-translucent blue plastic with darker symbols tattooed over her body that reflect her "thought processes." 

Cortana's base - commonly seen in the video game as the source of Cortana's projections has three blue diodes that project light to the translucent figure resulting in the impression that Cortana is a projection rather than a sculpt.
