Super November 3: MARI

  This is a photograph of MARI (Mechanical Anthropomorphic Research Instrument), an android developed by the near sentient computer Supervillain Master Mind. She was originally intended to assist Master Mind in developing a human-behaviour model to assist Master Mind in its schemes for world domination. The trouble with MARI occurred because Master Mind was too successful, and MARI began to develop ‘human emotions’ including guilt, grief and love.

  MARI fell in love with the Superhero known as Rapid, and rebelled against Master Mind when the super computer tried to force her to destroy Rapid. She assisted Rapid and his teammates defeat Master Mind. Following this she has been attempting to make amends for her earlier villainous behaviour and now works along side Rapid, helping to manage the teams secret base, and assisting with technological problems.

This figure is by Reaper, from their Chronoscope range. Obviously it’s a fairly simple paint job, but I am generally please with the way it turned out as I am not that good at painting metal. This is my third Super November entry- and is posted a day late because real world matters have got in the way- I hope you can forgive me.
