Summary
The One:12 Collective Punisher stands out for its hyper-realistic portrayal of Frank Castle in a gritty, battle-worn look reflecting his Vietnam War origins and comic roots. It features three highly detailed interchangeable head sculpts and an extensive, authentic arsenal including a battle rifle, 1911A1 sidearm, MP5 SMG, and a functional grenade launcher with six rounds, all with removable magazines and firing effect accessories. Despite minor issues like slightly loose fabric sleeves and limited ankle articulation, it offers exceptional weapon detail, versatile hands for realistic gun handling, and a realistic bulletproof vest, making it a definitive Punisher figure for collectors.

Reviews & Info
Pros
- Includes three highly detailed, hyper-realistic interchangeable head sculpts capturing different Punisher expressions (stoic, angry, battle-worn).
- Features a newly designed fabric uniform with realistic black BDU one-piece suit under a removable armored skull load-bearing vest with belt and knife sheath.
- Comes with an extensive weapons loadout including a battle rifle with removable magazines, 9mm pistol with extra clip, MP5-style submachine gun with extra clip, grenade launcher with six detachable grenades, and a combat knife with sheath.
- Includes unique gunshot blast effect pieces that attach to the barrel of most guns for dynamic display options.
- Offers over 32 points of articulation with double-jointed elbows and knees, ball-jointed wrists, and butterfly shoulder joints for a wide range of posing.
- Ankle articulation is present but limited; boots have some swivel and hinge but less range than ideal due to pants tucked in.
- Comes with eight interchangeable hands including fists, trigger finger hands, gripping hands, and a karate strike hand for diverse posing and weapon handling.
- Includes a display base with posing post and a branded accessory bag for storing weapons and hands.
- Detailed paint applications include battle damage on the vest, realistic skin tone with scars, and metal accents on buckles and weaponry.
- The fabric uniform sleeves are adjustable (can be rolled up), but the ends are not sewn properly, leading to fraying and fabric wear over time.
Cons
- No holster included for the pistol, which is unusual given the extensive accessory set.
- Minor paint alignment issues on elbow pads; one pad does not sit properly.
- Some parts of the vest and belt move freely but are not removable, limiting customization.
- Ankle articulation is limited, somewhat restricting dynamic foot poses.
- Knife grip is less secure due to lack of a dedicated gripping hand, making posing with the knife less natural.
