Every project runs through the same focused stages, so nothing important gets skipped.

Phase 01

Concept & voice

Building a comic-book world with thick outlines, halftone panels, Bangers and Space Grotesk type, and copy with big personality and zero chill.

Phase 02

Shopping journeys

Splitting the store into two missions, for your desk or for a kid, then designing character cards, a villain spotlight and a squad builder.

Phase 03

Build & launch

A responsive build with a 360° turntable, power-level stats, a scale chart and a live bundle total, launched on Netlify.

The challenge

The challenge

The challenge

The challenge

Collectible figure stores usually look like warehouses: rows of boxes on white, a price and a buy button. Nothing about them feels as fun as the characters they sell.

Buyers also come with two very different goals. Some want a statement piece for their own desk, others need a gift that a child will love.

The goal

Make a store with as much personality as the heroes, guide each type of buyer to the right figure, and encourage bigger orders.

The solution

The solution

The solution

The solution

HERO//HUB reads like a comic book. Every hero gets a numbered card with a sound effect, a one-line joke and a short origin story, and the home page splits into two missions: level up your desk, or find a gift for a kid.

Key features

  • A character spotlight with a 360° turntable, power-level stats and a scale chart

  • Collectible cards for 14 heroes, each with its own voice

  • A Build-a-Squad tool that bundles three heroes at 15% off

  • An inspiration gallery showing figures on desks, shelves and battlestations

  • A Join the League newsletter for new drops
