My name is Watchrin Hanshin. I’m a father of two and a toy customizer based in Thailand. I’ve been collecting and customizing toys for many years. In 2019, I wanted to improve my customizing further so I got my first 3D printer. At the time, I wasn’t happy with the 3D-printed files available in the market so I thought “If you want something done right, do it yourself”. That’s when I self-taught 3d sculpting and printed my own designs. In 2021, I stumbled upon Mythic Legions and their Cabal Facebook group. I was blown away by its customizing capabilities and the creative community. It is now my main focus when I want to make custom parts. I'm still a beginner in 3d sculpting but hopefully, when I'm advanced enough, I'll be able to bring out more ideas in my head to life.

Hailing from the Black River Dwarven settlement, Lord "Reynolds Cruz" of the Ohio Family, has set off on an adventure to the Southern Lands of Norte Carolus. Lord Cruz has spent 2 decades on the battle field of customizing and embarks on a journey to spread his craft and custom goods to the good citizens of the south. Lord Reynolds has obtained many skills along his journey but his specialty of Viking inspired Dwarfs are second to none. All of Lord Cruz's designs are original hand drawn concepts by the Dwarf legend himself and then sculpted by the elders of the community. Finally, all designs are brought into the third dimensional world by Lord Cruz and then meticulously painted by Lord Cruz himself. Lord Cruz's journey to Norte Carolus will see that these works of art make it into the hands of the people. One day, Lord Reynolds encountered a lone, travelling bear. The bear seemed to be travelling in same direction he was. The bear seemed to be on a journey of his own and so Lord Reynolds befriended him. The two decided to join forces and continue the adventure to Norte Carolus. Along the way, Lord Cruz learned of nomadic Bear's history. The Bear who went by the name Anthony Velez(Latin species) was an older but youthful bear that has had many lives and was very wise. Anthony was also on an adventure to spread his craft. Although a solitary animal, Anthony knew it was time to use his magical gifts as a Third Dimensional Conjurer to bring fourth new creations. Anthony has been working relentlessly to create his very own action figure line and has chosen Norte Carolus to show the world what hes been working on. The Forge Collection and Noble Bear Customs will be sharing a booth and be united as The Noble Forge at IshCon 2024. We cant wait to see everyone!

So a friend convinced them they could sell some of their collection at Comicons and small trade shows. They quickly realized they weren't alone on their toy hobby and started J&J Toy Garage.
