HOW WE STARTED

Legendary Builds started June 22, 2017. I created an Instagram page simply to post crafts and random art projects. I started doing custom Funko Pops because I started buying too many of them and didn't know what to do with them. Selling them off would be hard because anyone could go to the store and get them for the same price. So instead, I began brainstorming ways I could adjust or modify the ones I didn't care about into a piece of art I would be happy keeping. After some trial and error and a handful of pops later, people started reaching out to me and requesting custom pops which was extremely exciting.
What got me hooked into customs was simply that I could make something cool that people would enjoy and make my mark of spreading happiness in my community. As time passed, I started getting requests from people all over the world including: Thailand, Netherlands, USA, UK, and Nation-wide within Canada.
Over the next 3 years, I gained valuable contacts, improved my skills and techniques, and had the opportunity to meet so many amazing people. With the amazing support from family, friends, and my dear followers I continued making customs and enjoying every second of it.
Approaching Spring of 2020, an idea sparked. I was doodling drawings of my favorite characters until I had the idea to try and mash them up all together. With the end result, I created the idea of my own character LEO. This led to the birth of something huge. A project that would take LB from an underdog, to a rising leader in global entertainment through the industries of toys, comics, games, movies & more. Although my Funko venture has been put to rest, I still carry the invaluable experiences, friendships, and connections with me everyday.
