highly recommended

Cortana?s last designated mission was to aid the Spartans in capturing the Covenant Hierachs as the first step to end the war. She comes with a light-up base and a sleek, stylized pose. Measures 4.75" tall. No batteries required.


Another legend born out of the Halo series ...

What can I possibly say ??? I have a soft spot for anything Halo related. Spent many hours playing the Trilogy & reviewing all the material that's available on-line, studying the art work ... & once it's all said & done ... Halo is not just another frivolous video game that is here today & gone tomorrow ... the entire franchise can be truly described as a work of art from start to finish. This item is a definite collector's item & shouldn't be purchased with small children in mind. The overall quality of the molding is outstanding as the attention to detail. A very nice replica of an imagine transferred from a "virtual" world to a physical world. 5 stars out of 5 stars.

hey great nightlight!!

now this doll is definatly fun at parties, not only is it the envy of many, but when lite it casts this awesome sillouette on the ceiling, very cool, but you WILL be spendin some money on batteries haha!


batteries not included

Cortana is cool, and every Halo nerd wants one on his shelf. But this may fall short of cool.
First, the led lights beam at her, not through her. which does fails to properly illuminate Cortana.
Second, the plastic has seams and irregularities that show up when the lights are on. this takes coolness away (for me anyways) from the smart and sexy Cortana that we all love. But you get what you pay for, as they say. And this is what you get.

Not as cool as it looks

Cortana is awesome, and unfortunately this little statue does her no justice.

When I saw "light-up base," I got it in my head that the white area at her feet lit up. Not so. There are three little LEDs in the front, which light her unevenly and at a weird angle, bringing out the seams on the plastic on the side of the statue.

Getting the battery in also proved to be an adventure. The screw to the battery compartment would not come out, and I ended up disassembling the entire base and having someone else turn the tiny screw while I held wires in place with one hand and pushing the other end of the screw out with a flathead screwdriver. In case you're wondering, that's why I gave it a "2" on education, because you'll learn a little bit on electrical work. *sighs*

Once you do get past all that though, the statue does look pretty decent, and makes a nice addition as a night light for the kids or, in my case, a cool accessory in your man cave.

Review for Cortana

I was a little disappointed that the figure didn't actually light up. It just had 3 small lights that shined on the figure.
