my own gripe is that their webstore doesn't deliver to the UK so if you want an exclusive like the punisher then ebay is your only alternative...

So, I managed to snag the PX Exclusive Deluxe Punisher for retail price today....
Yeah, it's absolutely incredible. I didn't even intend on purchasing any figures today. Basically I went to the mall today as I've been trying to find a nice leather jacket. Found a couple good options but never ended up buying anything. Anyways, I decided to just walk around the mall a bit and I go into one of the collectibles stores.
The thing about this specific store is everything is stupidly priced; it's one of those ones that try and rip you off most of the time. I'm talking new Mattel figures for $50 kind of crap. However, I'm looking over the Mezco stuff and to my surprise they actually have some brand new Punishers, one of which is the PX version (the other 2 were just the standard edition). Price tag says $220 CAD. I know that's a bit more than what it originally went for, but that's still pretty great all things considered. Now I was actually going to pass it up; not a terrible deal but I needed the money for that leather jacket. And I kid you not, one of the workers comes up to me and after talking a little about Mezco and their great figures he says that if I'm willing to buy one right now, he'll give me a discount.
I said I was looking at their PX Punisher, but the $220 was a hard for me to swallow right now. Long story short, he gave me a $30 discount and I walk out of there with Punisher for $190 CAD. To my knowledge that's basically retail price, once converted to USD.
I will be completely honest, I'm not even that big of a Punisher fan but I just love well made and fun action figures. I got truly lucky on this one, hopefully others can have similar opportunities.

I'm pretty sure that's why he got it. Bet he hasn't even opened it yet and went straight to ebay

I'm laughing, but let's not assume the worst of our fellow collectors right out of the gate. Dude got it at retail and posted excitedly about it here. I hope he enjoys it, displays it, and passes his saving onto another serious collector in the months or years ahead. That's how this hobby should be.

Awesome find! I really like the px punisher
Regular punisher figure arrived a couple of hours ago and I can't put it down ... I have a problem, this is my first mezco figure and now I really want more which is the worst news for my wallet. Maybe I can just limit my collecting to the Marvel line he says whilst staring at the Dredd figures

I had DKR and Dredd and thought I was done. Then I had to get Classic Punisher and lucked out on release day. And a local shop got the standard Punisher at retail and I grabbed it. I said, "nah, I don't need the PX" then............a friend offered me one. God dammit. Dude, you're in now, I started with 2 and now have 7 with 2 more pre-ordered.
Ahhhh poop. So I had an order from Animegami for Punisher PX and just got notice that it was cancelled. Really hope they rerelease a version of Classic now lol. The regular one, while cool, just doesn't resonate with me like the Classic or Bradstreet style the PX did.

Can't lie, it's annoying how after the screwed a large portion of their fan base, now exclusives aren't as limited and there is an actual limit. I mean nice they're changing the strategy, but still sucks for those of us who got screwed with classic Punisher(sorry for beating a dead horse lol). Also, wtf is this Deadpool from? Quick glance I was like OH **** ITS CYCLOPS but nope, weird Deadpool variant.

I put this in my cart and the shipping is only 31 cents.
I'm on the fence with this one. I have enough points to bring it down to less than $60.00 shipped.

Looks much better in all those panels though. It should be darker blue with an orange-ish yellow.

Mezco site exclusive.
It also bothers me that you have to pay immediately even though it might not ship until September.

I think I'm going to pass on this one. I already have the other two 1/12 Deadpool figures pre-ordered. This one just ain't ringing my bell.

I'll wait on it. My feeling is: if it's a slow seller I have time to get the money together, and if a design like this is a hot seller then this line is so hyped that I don't care about collecting it any more.
