Mezco is once again showing off another of their awesome One:12 Collective Marvel figures, this time in the form of Frank Castle. You know, the Punisher? And from the looks of it, he’s coming prepared to wage war.
While Mezco plainly states that this is a prototype, meaning some things can change, this makes me excited. Punisher is a perfect choice for this line, with his more military attire and lack of mask. Lots of weapon choices, three heads and a mask, even a trenchcoat. Don’t even get me started on the three different chest skulls. Four if the red one isn’t just an alternate piece.
Now to decide which one I want. Or two. Three?
Frank Castle, aka the Punisher. His path for vengeance and justice is a dark and brutal journey. When the One:12 Collective team was designing the figure we wanted to show visually that he has been through a lot and that he is capable of dispensing even more.
Below are some behind-the-scenes shots of our process. It’s the condensed snapshot of many meetings and discussions on how to treat the character, loads of reference images compiled and months of development time. You’ll see some control art, sculpt work, weapons that have not been shown to date and maybe a few belated Easter eggs.
