Received my Punisher today and this is one outstanding figure, if your entertaining thoughts about picking this one up or not I would recommend getting it, I doubt you'll regret it.

Thanks for the tip. I used plasmid303's photo as a guide and after spending about 2 hours of assembling and gluing, I have to say.. this has become a favorite. For the price tag, this is one amazing figure!

 

[Punisher75]

yeah it is a great figure for an unbelievable price. I wish I had ordered 2.

Well I spent 2 hours or so getting this guy all geared up properly. Wow and I thought he looked good before now it's just outstanding. Quite an imposing looking figure on the shelf now. We all know he is sculpted with a rather stern expression, but in some light I can almost see a slight smirk in his expression somehow. He stands slightly taller than my Hot Toys T2 T-800 which looks right to me. Very glad I got this. Thanks to all those who posted their awesome pics that helped me make my decision.

Hmm, not to sound like a noob (well, i guess i am). How are the gun holster for the chest and ammo clip holder suppose to go on the chestpiece?

They tread through the pattern "straps" on the vest with the two strips or straps that come off the holster and ammo pouch. I used tweezers to carefully lift the places to thread those strips on the vest (see reference photos for placement). Pushing the attached strips through carefully on the vest. Then thread them back trough the straps that are on the back of the holster and ammo pouch in kind of a loop and then loop back again.
It's hard to explain, but I hope that can help you out.

Thanks for the advice. Got it to work!

I cut the straps off the chest holster and used fabric glue to glue it in place, the straps left it feeling way to lose for my tastes. I might do the same with the ammo clip holder.

I think some others applied watered down acrylic paint.

I think one day I will buy myself into a marvel movie figure void.

I think prices are rising on this a little bit, that being said I hope you and other fans can still pick this up when your ready. Either way I say it's cash well spent.

This has been my favorite purchase of 2010 (though technically he arrived this year). Some will probably disagree, but he's easily HT quality out of the box. The $90 VP price was just the icing on the cake.

Yeah, they are scumbags when it comes to things like that. They scalp when they can.

I wouldn't call them scumbags. They've had the figure for a while. They're not K-Mart, bud, no layaway program.

There's something very familiar about all this...

I think I actually prefer AF's box construction to most of HT's. It's like a more durable version of the DX01 box. The only thing I don't like is no back piece, so you can take the foam and pieces out without them all falling through.

But I like the "big hardcover book" aspect of it.

I agree and I like the smaller size too. My first impression of this was how cool the box is.

Finally received mine. Awesome looking figure sculpt / paint is really well done. I put a few pieces on and my first impression is the velcro's gonna be a problem.
