Customer Ratings & Reviews

I arrived at the Best Buy at 8:00am. The hidden behind a wall of clouds, cold and indifferent, much like the faces of the 23 men sitting in their folding chairs in front of the locked glass doors. We stood in a line that felt less like a queue for a hobby and more like a gathering of people waiting for a government-mandated ration of hope. One individual, wearing a cross-body bag and Crocs (WITH SOCKS) had seen better days, spent the duration of the two-hour wait explaining his "exit strategy" for his inventory of cardboard. I found myself staring at the texture of his neck, wondering if he realized he was merely a temporary host for assets that do not love him back. The Ascended Heroes collection itself is a masterclass in psychological tension. Upon opening the box, I was presented with the poster. It is double-sided. This is a profound design flaw, or perhaps a deliberate cruelty. To display one side is to actively suppress the other. Side A features Lucario, ready to engage in a physical confrontation that I am not emotionally prepared to witness before my second cup of coffee. It is a side that demands movement and conflict. Side B, however, is a collage: a dense, frantic grid of square and rectangular card art. Every inch of space is occupied by a different creature trapped in its own geometric cell, locked in an eternal, desperate struggle for visibility, much like the men in the parking lot. I spent forty minutes laying the paper flat on the kitchen island, weighing the merits of Lucario’s kinetic violence on Side A against the cold, clinical repetition of the card grid on Side B. My husband entered the kitchen and asked if I was planning on using the island for dinner preparations. I explained that I was currently navigating a crisis of permanence and that the chicken could wait. I held the poster up against the light to see if I could perceive both sides at once, but the paper stock is just thick enough to prevent such a compromise. You are forced to choose between the chaos of action and the chaos of the grid. He stared at his Blackstone grill through the window for a long time before suggesting we order pizza. I eventually taped Side B to the wall. I find the rigid rectangles of the collage keep me alert. Every time I walk past it, I see a new, tiny face staring back at me from its cardboard prison, reminding me of the two hours of my life I traded for this experience. It is a functional piece of decor, provided you don't mind the feeling of being watched by a hundred different eyes at once. I have placed Side A against the drywall, where Lucario’s aggression can be safely muffled by the insulation.
