Hey everyone! I am Leon Arseneau Aka: Darth Leon Customs. I'm 31 Years old and live in Minnesota. I've been customizing since I'd say 2002. Maybe earlier, can't really remember. My first custom was a Masters of the Universe from the new cartoon series. I got really deep into He-Man when it was made into a new cartoon because I was huge into He-Man in the 80's. Yes I'm old, what of it!? So anyway, my first custom was of Hordak. It looked pretty sweet for my first figure and actually it's still one of my favorite figures. I continued to make many MOTU figures before the Mattel series and cartoon went RIP! I saw that Marvel Legends was on the rise so I jumped on that band wagon and havent looked back since. I've been doing customs of whatever you can think of from McFarlane NFL figures, to Big Trouble in Little China figures. My interests: Well I'm interested in everything. I love to get out into the woods and camp, fish, hunt, 4 wheel, etc. I love sports, and my favorite is the NFL. I'm a freak for the NFL. My favorite team is the CHICAGO BEARS. I know I live in Minnesota and I like the Bears, but there is a long story behind that. I've been a Bears fan since I was 5 or 6 years old so I'm no bandwagoneer. But then comes the quandry, every other sports team is Minnesota. I like the TWINS, TIMBERWOLVES, WILD, GOPHERS, ETC... But my main passion is the CHICAGO BEARS! Ok, Here's the short story to the long story, I was born in Arizona and my mom bought me a random chicago bears shirt when I was around 5 or 6. It was my favorite shirt in the world so I became a Chicago Bears fan and have not wavered since. Movies are my World. Anything and everything Star Wars is my world. But I love Movies PERIOD. I see pretty much every summer movie. I don't watch much t.v because I'm always wathcing movies, but one show that keeps me glued to the set is BATTLESTAR GALACTICA. I wanted to hate the show but man did it blow me away and I became an instant BG dork! Comics. Used to collect comics like crazy but haven't recently. My favorite comic character from my childhood was THOR! Back Then I would say THOR and all my friends were like "THOR? Who is that? What about Spiderman or Superman, Etc..." Another comic that I couldn't help but to buy was GI Joe. Who didn't like Gi Joe when they were a kid.
So that's a little snippit of who I am, maybe more will slip out in the future so stay tuned.
Take care,
Leon
