[Popsical]

Mk3 for me. Brutal and imposing. No nancy's in 3's.

[Deadlift]

Mk 4 for me, it's the helmet. I just really like the design.

[Cap'nSmurfs]

Mark seven, with a more than passing fondness for six.

You're missing the BTs Crusader Pattern :P

I deliberately left out artificer armours/chapter specific variants (no Sanguinary Guard either), or we'd be here forever.

On-topic, mine is Mk 5, the T-34 of the Astartes. Cheap as chips, pressed from sheet steel, hastily thrown together, but IT DOES THE DAMN JOB. Plus all those molecular bonding studs look awesome.

Mk IV Maximus Power Armor. If I could just afford all the variants from Forgeworld!

[Arkhan Land]

Beakies Forever!

Mark 5. The era where they had to just bolt on extra plates of armor with giant rivets to make it battle worthy. That just resonates bad-@** to me.

Followed closely by Mark 4, because it was, and still is, the most advanced suit of armor.
