Heroes is an amazing shop, there is such a wode range of things to look at and buy. We ended up coming back 2 days running on our holiday because it was so nice.

Went into the shop a month or so back, very satisfied with the service in store aswell as the stock! Unfortunately I live far away from the shop so can't go back physically to the store, luckily they have an online shop which i recently purchased from, i will say it was excellent,fast delivery, well packaged and good price 10/10

F. R.

One Best shop I've been to

V. V. (.

Amazing shop, well stocked with great products and the customer service is fantastic. We moved off the island in march but we recently discovered that they still deliver pops and products to the mainland no problem using HERMES. They sent the pop quickly and in secure packaging. They are also always willing to look into ordering things they haven't already got. Would highly recommend this shop.

K. N.

Love this little shop! Had a few things held by for me with no problems or questions asked! Great stock and a wide range of items for my nerdy collections! Always something for everyone in here. Customer service is amazing and always quick to respond to any questions! Highly recommended!

M. P.

Absolutely amazing service from staff, great collection of comics, boardgames and pop vinyls, and up always up to date with any new releases! Always super friendly and are happy to try and order in whatever you need! My go-to for most pop-vinyls now- not to mention the awesome end of minth raffle and loyalty stamp card bringing even more reasons to shop there!

Z.

Currently my favourite shop. Have superb friendly staff, great delivery times, do raffles every month for free chase pops (only if you have bought one in the shop that month to receive a raffle ticket).. not forgetting the card you get stamped on every purchase and when full you get a free pop.

a. t.

Im a big kid that loves to kit out my gaff with awesome star wars paraphernalia and the hero shop is the place to go for my needs. The chap that runs the shop is easy going with fun information.

J. A.

Great shop. Friendly and helpful service. Daughters getting into comics and they couldn't be anymore understanding and helpful. Highly recommended

G. R.

This place is treasure trove filled with comics, cult memorabilia, T-shirts galore and more! The staff are amazing and I definitely know where to look for to get my next gift...I think I will also have to get gift for myself just for being so awesome to shop here! Highly Recommend!

N. F.

A proper 'bricks and mortar' shop..I'm so pleased to have found Heroes for Loki toys for our daughter. It was so easy to order and I had more added to the order prior to dispatch. Delivery was so fast (despite the Royal Mail strikes) as they use a separate courier. Items were packed so well, these people are a credit to their business. I wouldn't hesitate in using them again.

M. V.

Fantastic independent hobbyists and comic shop. Good selection of wargames miniatures (particularly Games Workshop) and paints, collectable cards such as Magic the Gathering, and comics/graphic novels. Staff are extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Definitely recommend a visit.

D. H.

Great service, great products but more than that their evening events are great. My son attends the MtG events regularly and as a new player he was welcomes with open arms and not made to feel stupid for being new. Highly recommend.

D. G.

Been using IWHeroes for a few weeks now and the service is brilliant. Fast postage and quick delivery is always a plus. Thank you for all the WCF My Hero Academia figures. I’ll be sure to tag you when I post them all on Instagram. Stay Plus Ultra @IWHeroes ✨

S. 7.

Brilliant shop. Probably not 1 week goes by without me going in. Friendly and helpful staff. Always interaction and have mostly got what I need, if not, they are willing to order stuff in. Cannot fault this shop or the staff at all. A+++

J. F.

Excellent product, fast delivery, great professional packaging, proper invoice, business card and free poster, what's not to love, great service 10/10

s. d.

Fantastic place to take the kids. Lots of comics and amazing games on sale. I recommend this place to everyone who has or is looking for a new hobby and is looking to get their children into something new and brilliant. A+++++

N. F.

Great selection of items. Friendly welcoming staff

L. B.

Seems like a decent little games shop. Gent on desk was too quiet, fine for some, but even a "Hello guys, if you need help finding anything, let me know!" Would have been nice than a silent treatment.

R. R.

A Fantastic shop full of friendly knowledgeable staff, happy to talk to you about any topic in geek culture and acommadating for all levels of geek from the most hardcore fan to compleat beginners. The store has the absolute best range of Funko Pop Vynal figures anywhere on the island and a great range of graphic novels, comics, games, minetures and other collectable's Highly recommend you check it out

R. S.

The only 'proper' comic shop on the Isle of Wight, Heroes has a huge selection of graphic novels, toys, games and comics and new stock coming in all the time - it changes every time I go in. Friendly staff who know their stuff and probably the best selection of Funko Pop Vinyls I've ever seen. Def check them out if on the Island.

J. C.

I ordered an Iron Maiden comic which I realised I had missed in the series, so I tried looking on eBay, contacting my local comic book stores to no prevail. I looked on every UK comic book site I could find in google and Heroes was the last hope! and hey presto there it was still at the original price. The delivery cost was about £1 to send it and the delivery was prompt! Many thanks!

B. C.

Love my local comic shop!! First place I come to get all my pop needs and they try their best to order in what you request. They definitely are here for their customers. 10/10!!

L. H.

Superb shop - great range of stuff too. The staff know their stuff and are happy to help. Really good place to find something unusual that can't be found elsewhere locally!

J. S.

Awesome comic book store. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Cannot recommend them enough

C. D.

My only visit was back in August this year when on holiday, I found Rob to be very helpful when looking for certain products as well as very cheerful and freindly. The shop is jam packed with collectables, comics, Funko pops and much much more, they even have a couple of retro arcade games at 10p per play, my 10 year son absolutely loved playing on these. Since returning home I have been in touch with Rob when searching for certain Funko pops, which Rob has either had in stock or has managed to source for me, and he even went as far as packing and posting purchases back to me on the mainland. As I informed Rob that I am an Inbox collector, he goes above and beyond when packaging up pops for deliveed to ensure my Funko pops arrive intact with no damage. Excellent shop with excellent staff,

H. S.

Great little place for people like me to geek out. They have a great selection of pop funko (with a raffle ticket given out with each brought) follow the facebook group as well with a chance to win :)

N. S.

My son and I are MTG beginners. Went entered a 'draft' competition one evening while on holiday. We had a great time everyone was really nice (Ps I lost all my games but it was still great fun)

j. k.

First time order and customer service was excellent, very well packed and arrived quick.

J. K.

Amazing shop and friendly staff and if you follow them on Facebook they get new pops in and you can reserve them for yourself! Ideal for the harder to get pops! Highly recommended.

m. b.

Heroes sells me comics and Graphic Novels, Funko POPs, Boardgames, Collectables and much more. I go along to Boardgames Night to meet and make friends, play games old and new, and be part of a very diverse community of like-minded folk. Other nights focus on MtG, D&D and more. New members and casual visitors are made very welcome. Special events, raffles, special offers and friendly and informative staff make Heros a stand-out shop, venue and club.

C. R.

Great shop for comic lovers pleasant staff and a massive amount to choose from including free stuff quite often

v. l.

Good price prompt delivery kept well informed of arrival date, I asked James if he could get it in the post asap and even though we missed his collection for the day he managed to get it posted . Brilliant service

A. W.

Well equipped and knowledgeable staff married with an eclectic mix of trending and gems of pop-culture, Heroes is a viral part of the community. Warhammer club, games nighsn and more make this plave more than a shop, it's a brick and mortar palace of geekdom.

B. W.

Bloody brilliant, loved his warm welcome knowledge and Wrath of Khan soundtrack. Whilst it's tucked out the way in Newport go it's a bloody Tardis

D. P.

Very friendly store with an impressive range of products. There's a great selection of Pokemon TCG and Magic the Gathering singles.

Absolutely love this store and if I lived nearer it would totally be my FLGS even if I had to travel from the mainland. Wonderful staff, great selection of geek ornaments, sadly the board game section is a touch lacking but it's vastly made up for by the play space and the clean environment.
