The Best Punisher Minimate

[Trekker 42]

After Navaan's delightful Captain America post, I wanted to extend that discussion to other characters with maybe a bit less of a daunting amount of minimates. I considered Venom, but, finding his selection somewhat lacking, I went with The Punisher since, honestly, I don't think there's a single bad Punisher minimate. Which is absolutely wild.

I think my favorite Punisher is the Thunderbolts Punisher (with the white skull side visible.) It hits all the notes I'd have for a Punisher: big white skull, trenchcoat, piles of guns, and it looks *perfect* next to a good ol fashioned Daredevil minimate. 

However I acknowledge the likely victor to be Assault Armor Punisher from War Zone. It's a striking figure with that tactical vest and the ability to load him up with just... every single gun on the goddamn planet. He's the likely candidate for Best Punisher Minimate, but for this character that's a title hard won.

Warzone for me by a mile. It's Ray Stevenson in Minimate form and he's got a shit-ton of weapons. How can you lose?  

Also I liked the movie. Side note. Thomas Jane is my favourite movie punisher.

Based take, re: Thomas Jane.

 

I actually prefer the Frontal Assault Punisher; accessories really make him feel complete and customizable.

I'll go with Trekker on the T'bolts version (white skull) .    

I've never watched anything Netflix Marvel so I have no opinion on the show but the SDCC Punisher sans coat is sublime ....although I'd prefer a different hairpiece. 

I'd have loved an Iron-Punisher Minimate, a grail o'mine.

100% ! I don't even collect MCU MIniMates and I needed this one. It's awesome.

For my classic comic Punisher, I'm a fan of the Best of/Greatest Hits version. And First Appearance gets a nod for its fidelity to the comic.

I considered him given the general vibe of that old school blue look, but I decided to not take the customizable nature of Minimates into this discussion and I just cannot tolerate that facial expression.

Frontal Assault Punisher kicks ass. He's a trenchcoat option away from being by far the best one.

LITERALLY considered noting that. You and I? Same danged page.

Warzone for sure.

but I did score a custom War Machine Punshisher that @luke314pi made too. I gotta find it and send a pic, it was sick!

Warzone Punisher followed by Frontal Assault Punisher.

Warzone Box Set for me.  I just dig that armored figure and the Ray Stevenson look.
