 ====Mark I====
 [[File:Colonel-028 in Why Doth Love Sting So?.png|thumb|left|[[Colonel-028]] is a Mark I Cherub with a monocle]]
-[[Mark I]]s were the original design of [[Clockwork Cherub|Clockwork Cherubs]] built by [[Cupida Hartnell]]. They were taller than later models, with a chest unit separated from the base of the legs by a tubular waist. Their limbs were articulated with elbows and knees, and their “hair” was a simplistic metal cap on top of their circular head.

They were taller than later models, with a chest unit separated from the base of the legs by a tubular waist. Their limbs were articulated with elbows and knees, and their “hair” was a simplistic metal cap on top of their circular head. Their body had two segments, thorax and pelvis, which could swivel relative to one another. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids (short story)|The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids]]'', etc.)
 Known Mark Is include the [[Cupid Prime]] (#001), [[Doc-012]], [[Colonel-028]], [[Rosen-035]], and [[Doctor Sigma|Doctor Sigma-063]]. [[Santa Claus|Claus-025]] is currently missing and believed non-operational.
 ====Mark II====
-[[File:Juliet the 945th.png|thumb|Juliet the 945th is one of far too many Juliets]]The [[Mark II]]s were the second Mark of Clockwork Cherubs designed by [[the Creator]], following the taller [[Mark I|Mark Is]]. [[Juliet-178]] was a Mark II. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Labors of Juliet (short story)|The Labors of Juliet]]'') Accordingly, her [[Sisters of Juliet|many duplicates]] were also technically Mark IIs, despite being obviously newer than “legitimate” Mark IIs, something other Cupids tended to find disturbing. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Of Romeos and Juliets (short story)|Of Romeos and Juliets]]'')
+[[File:Juliet the 945th.png|thumb|Juliet the 945th is one of far too many Juliets]]The [[Mark II]]s were the second Mark of Clockwork Cherubs designed by [[the Creator]], following the taller [[Mark I|Mark Is]]. The Mark 2s are smaller and rounder, and have been compared to rag dolls. [[Juliet-178]] was a Mark II; accordingly, her [[Sisters of Juliet|many duplicates]] were also technically Mark IIs, despite being obviously newer than “legitimate” Mark IIs, something other Cupids tended to find disturbing. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Labors of Juliet (short story)|The Labors of Juliet]]'', ''[[Of Romeos and Juliets (short story)|Of Romeos and Juliets]]'')
 The most famous, and numerous, Mark II is [[Juliet-178]] and [[Sisters of Juliet|all the rest]]. Other, singular, Mark IIs include [[Nadar-124]] and [[Amour-159]].
 ====Mark III====
-[[File:Pessimist-242 in The Pessimist's Guide to the Small Screen.png|thumb|left|Pessimist “watching television”.

The Mark IIIs are taller than the Mark IIs, with a squarish jaw, long jointed legs, an oblong body with a roundel and checkerboard pattern on it, and curved sloping wings.
 The malfunctioning [[Mandragora-257]] was originally a Mark III. [[Pessimist-242]], despite his psychological quirks, still is.

 [[Romeo-1020]], who became involved in the [[Juliet-178]] matter, was a [[Mark XI]], as were [[Sigmund-1028]]. and [[Larrikin-1029]].

([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Cupid Suggestion Box (short story)|The Cupid Suggestion Box]]'') Production [[Mark XV]] units are much smaller, bearing a roundel and crisscrossed pipes set-up also seen in Mark XVIIs.
 [[Valerius-1497]] was constructed as a Mark XV and may yet be one again.

 [[Mark XVII]]s were a mark of Clockwork Cherub. [[Cupid Fact File|Cupid Fact File #001]] compared them to the [[Mark I|Mark Is]], noting they were the youngest Mark of Cherubs yet extant as of the last update to the File. Mark XVIIs were small and streamlined, with round heads, plus-sign-shaped eyes, and bendable limbs. They had a power core in the centre of their chest, from which piping ran on the outside, forming an X pattern.
