Punisher's on the Grim Reaper body-type, and makes good use of it. Articulation on mine is tight all around, barring a little bit of looseness in the left hip - not enough to impair him in any way, but worth noting. Except for the waist, which is impeded a bit by the belt, his articulation is standard and excellent, as to be expected from this mold.



Frank comes with two heads - a Jim Lee-styled 'War Journal' head with the bandanna, and a more modern version with slicked-back hair, five o' clock shadow, and eyes that don't know the luxury of sleep. I'm torn on which head I like more, because the bandanna speaks to my sillier side, while the 'gritty' head feels more 'Frank' to me. Though that head is also a little too 'pretty' in the sculpt, and honestly looks like a Superman who's been keeping Batman hours.



Paint work is fan-friggin-tastic. Hasbro really knocked it out with painting white-on-black (the skull) and black-on-white (the forearms). Hell, if it weren't for the white plastic showing through at the pegs, I wouldn't have been able to tell which color was the base. All crisp, no slop or bleed, except on the heads - the 'War Journal' head has some fuzziness on the bandanna, and the 'gritty' head didn't get complete black coverage at the bottom, near the neck.

Something to note about the head/neck area, I'm not 100% certain, but I think the heads were originally designed with the Bucky Cap body in mind, since they really look awkward from any angle but the front, if you look too long.

Accessories include a bazooka, a drum-fed shotgun (riot gun?), and a really long machine gun (afraid I'm not much of a gun enthusiast, so I don't know what it's actually called), and some web gear. The straps and belt are nice and bring the look together, but they're both pieces that were attached during assembly, and have no fasteners, so you'll have to either disassemble the figure, or cut the straps, in order to remove them.



The bazooka has a peg to affix very nicely to Frank's back, which is great, since it suffers the most from the ONE flaw in Hasbro's execution here: A COMPLETE LACK OF TRIGGER-FINGER HANDS. I mean, come on, this is Frank Castle. His weapons are guns. His training is guns. His superpower is guns. He needs hands that hold guns. You can fudge it a little, but the handle on the bazooka is too short to work well without a trigger finger that can fit in the guard. Say what you will about Deadpool's pinky finger, but at least he doesn't suffer this glaring oversight.



The machine gun fares better, with a longer handle, and also features a carrying grip on the top. Which is good, because it's pretty damn big, and makes an impressive two-handed wielding piece. Probably the best weapon to pair with the 'War Journal' head.



I know some people complain about the shotgun being white, but what can you do. For whatever reason, it is. That said, it's still a nice piece, and can be held in a proper two-handed grip, though it also has a shorter handle and suffers from Frank's kung-fu grip hands. Not awful, but not the best.



Here we have Frank with sometimes-ally, sometimes-enemy Daredevil, showcasing the differences in build. Here, I swapped out Frank's guns for the rifles that came with that old Walmart MCU Nick Fury, and with the longer handles, these guns actually look really good with him, even without trigger fingers. In fact...



...Frank seems to work better with weapons that he didn't come with.
(Left to right: DCUC Deathstroke's assault rifle, Agent Venom's submachine gun and laser-sight handgun, Agent Venom's twin handguns, Demolition Man's shotgun, Demolition Man's handgun and knife)



Lastly, we have a shot of Frank with fellow Walgreens-exclusives Agent Venom, Ant-Man (Black Ant), and Namor (the camera refused to focus on Frank, no matter how much I tried).

All in all, Frank is a solid figure, and definitely one I'm glad we grabbed despite having zero intention of picking him up. I hope everyone who wants one can get one, and I hope this helps a couple of people who are on the fence about him.

Badass pictures I'm definitely going to get him! These Walgreens excusives are so easy to find thankfully

You mean the Movie Frank from Series VI? Don't own him, I'm afraid. Best I could do is try to peel off the coat from an MCU Fury.

I only ordered 2 because I was worried that they were going to sell out and had accidentally put 2 in my cart and was not going to take the time to correct the cart for fear of loosing the item.

Why doesn't Punisher have trigger fingers?

Daredevil told Frank to stop shooting people and glued his fingers together.

I FINALLY finished the Punisher custom I have been working on for the better part of a year on and off. He is sort of a mash-up hybrid of the Marco Checchetto design from 2011 with inspiration from a custom by Loosecollector (seriously, Google his and check it out!) and my own design elements.

More pics are in the custom section if interested. http://www.toyark.com/punisher-175058/

Finally had a chance to take out a couple Raft set figures. I let my daughter enjoy Enchantress when the box first came but didn't really inspect her until tonight.

Anyone else's Enchantress skirt come loose? Mine looked weird in the package but I thought it had shifted when put into the plastic shell. Skirt wasn't on straight so I tried to center it then realized there was a small spot of adhesive on her right outer hip. Then I realized the skirt was probably supposed to be centered and glued down but mine was misaligned. Luckily the skirt detached from the glue spot and the glue mark wiped away no problem. Still a bit disappointed tho.

A quick pictorial celebration of BBTS delivering the "goods," on Thurs. The wait was long, but it was well worth the minor aggravation. Can't wait for the subsequent X-waves and the upcoming rebirth of FF figs. I was getting tired of "Avengers" and "Spidey" themed figs in isolation.

Various head casts i've been sitting on and done nothing with cause i'm too lazy to send them out...and way too lazy to paint them..
one of these days i'll finally do one or the other..

@Boy Blunder....Fantastic pictorial review...

[TheBlueMarvel]

@Dark

Thanks...not really a "set up." Just fun and quick poses...more of a "throw-up," to borrow from graffiti/"tagging" parlance...

Sue Richards was shown with Herbie at SDCC...I'm as convinced that we'll see the rest of the FF (and most importantly, Surfer ) as I was of Hasbro re-releasing Enchantress outside of the Con exclusive set...

I like that Marko head cast and the random (?) head to the far left...is that DCUC's John Stewart? Always liked that head sculpt...

Also, is that supposed to be a retro Wonder Man head?...a bit on the small side...

I probably didn't see your post. Wait, I don't remember them showing him off last year though. I thought he was revealed at NYTF back in Feb?

Honestly though, I only noticed the not-properly colored guns until those pictures.

It's an original cast of David Tenant, who played Purple Man (Kilgrave) on Jessica Jones.

@Dr Kain: It was revealed at NYTF like you said, in the Legends case, which wasn't exactly a year ago, but it was the first time I caught it. I also mentioned it when Raf managed to get his hands on it about a month and a half ago, and a couple of times when we were all having our "Favorite Marvel Legends" discussions. I definitely remember bringing it up when someone mentioned that the Walgreens Punisher would be the definitive version, as I had to stand up for my favorite version (series 4 ToyBiz) at that point, because the series 4 figure had trigger fingers and the Hasbro one didn't...lol.

It's not a big deal though when it was mentioned. I'm just kinda sad and appalled that Hasbro never caught this oversight before the figure shipped. They did the same thing with Nuke.

I wonder if i could switch the hand from one of my Nick Fury's since they both have the same colored gloves.
