At some point Frank and Red Hulk were trying to kill eachother and Frank used this armor to fight him. So it is from comics, but it was only used in one or two issues.
Oh my god, I'd forgotten about that series. Where everyone had the white on their costumes replaced with red. Thanks!

Got my preorder in for Punisher Hulk buster/Mech Suit yesterday & I'm definitely looking forward to it..I was supposed that it's being released June 1st along with Secret Wars 2 wave & Muse Bullseye 2 Pack..so my wallet is gonna take a beating that month.. regardless Punisher Hulk buster is gonna look amazing in my Red Thunderbolts display
I would be more happy if we got an actual figure of that Punished Punisher from Rucka/Checchetto run but I understand that Hasbro needs to reuse 11 year molds, especially if they are gigantic and that probably take a lot of expensivespace in storage.
Truly an awesome looking figure, without a doubt. Not one my collection can really, or really needs for that matter, but a fantastic looking figure nonetheless.
Im weirdly liking this Punisher. I probably wont buy it, but it looks fun?
Punisher Hulkbuster is really cool. I preordered it at EB Games Canada for about $81 CDN.
Not as expensive as I thought they might try for ($70, as it turns out), not that I'm happy with the price, either, but I thought they might shoot for something wild like $90. Was hoping they might do $60 or so but I guess not. Put a pre-order in but I might cancel down the road. Still a little on the fence as it's definitely not a "need" for me, but it does look cool. I noticed Pulse raised the price on shipping by a buck, though. So that's a thing.
