Introducing The Punisher from Mezco Toys.

Mezco Toys is one of the best manufacturers of awesome fully articulated action figures that are ripped straight from the comics and film. Days ago, it has been announced that Mezco plans to released an awesome 12” Punisher figure that could be another welcoming addition to The Punisher Harp Ensemble alongside Jim Lee’s Punisher from the upcoming 6” Marvel Legends series from Hasbro. Like the upcoming Punisher figure from Sideshow Collectables, he will be released towards the very end of this year. That gives you plenty of time to cough up $80 so you can pre-order Frank before he gets shipped out right around November-December. That’s much cheaper than paying $230+ to pre-order the Sideshow Punisher figure before he gets shipped out right around September.

Get a good look at these photos.

The Punisher figure set has 3 facial portraits, lots of weaponry, posing hand sets, and a posing display stand. He has everything you ever want out of an action figure made strictly for adults. This is not a child’s toy. Sorry, Kids. This is for the kid in all adults who enjoy collecting Punisher figures, like I do. I, myself collect Punisher figures and have them play the harp in memory of his family killed by the mob years ago. I’ll do the same thing with these awesome figures here when I saved up just enough money to pre-order them online.

Sherry is the one who came up with the idea of portraying The Punisher from Marvel Comics as the punishing harpist who plays the harp in memory of his family who was killed by the mob years ago.

About the author

Why does The Punisher play the harp?

It’s easy to imagine The Punisher shooting up criminal hideouts and blowing off the heads of thugs and mob bosses as the ultimate punishment for their crimes. But it’s hard to imagine (and believe) that there is also very gentle side to The Punisher no one knows about except for The Defenders (Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist), Microchip (aka David Linus Liberman), and Spider-man (aka Peter Parker) who actually saw and became amazed at him doing something no one has ever thought he could do with his violent hands– play the harp. A gentle stringed musical instrument no one could ever believe that The Punisher would have such talent and ability to use his otherwise destructive hands to gently and tenderly pluck and caress its strings.

Indeed, it’s very hard to imagine and believe that the Punisher’s violent hands that brake bones, strangle necks, and punch out guts are the very same hands that softly and tenderly pluck, caress, and gracefully sweep across the strings of the harp.

Why does he do it, you asked? Because Frank is doing this in memory of his family whom he communes with through songs, poems, and prayers as he gracefully wave his battle-scarred arms and hands across the strings to fill his private family shrine with harp music that moves The Punisher to joyful tears.

Where did the Idea of The Punisher and his Harp come from?

It’s a concept I, Sherry Konkus made up myself. It combines my new found obsession with The Punisher that I had since 2014 and my life long love for the harp. It is the very best concept I ever made. This is my version of The Punisher from Marvel Comics who is portrayed by me as the punishing harpist who plays the harp in memory of his late family who got killed by a criminal mob years ago and whenever he needs a break from waging a one man war against organized crime.

The Punisher was created by Gerry Conway with the help of artists John Romita, Sr. and Ross Andru. His name coined by Stan Lee. The Punisher is owned and trademarked by MARVEL.

The idea, concept, and inspiration behind The Punisher’s portrayal as The Punishing Harpist who plays the harp in memory of his family is in fact my own. Sweetest. Idea. Ever.
