He trades what he does for other parts he cannot make, and soon, people with nothing to trade offer to buy him his makings.
This is how FENIXPROPS is born. Not as a business, but as a way of life, a means to have the builds a young boy wished to have and couldn't find.
As an avid fan, Lucas searched for people like him, who shared his dreams, had similar pasts, and brought them into his dream.
For our personal builds, we spend months researching each part, we ask for opinions and we only go with the pieces that meet our standards, that pay attention to every detail.
We know we don't always have the whole picture, so we trust our vendors and feel reassured when the communication is honest and easy-going.
Therefore, this is what each of us brings to our area in FENIXPROPS. We know what is like to bring a build to life after months and months of collecting each piece, and we know the joy and pride when it's finally done. We know the exhilarating feeling of trooping, and we want you to feel exactly the same.
Rest assured that we test, make, and finish each piece for us first, and we take pride in our work. Our only hope is that you feel the same way with our parts.
Sci Fi... it all began with Star Wars. Thrilling 8mm ANH shorts that ignited my imagination at birthday's parties during my childhood. The saga has been etched into my heart since.
I have always been an avid creator, amazed by the art of crafting wonders with my own two hands.
As dreams sometimes outpace budgets, I turned my passion into a journey. When I couldn't afford my faved props, I delved into the art of making them.
I love guns as props, so I'e embraced the world of airsoft collecting too.
First memory of Star Wars was when I was 4 and knew it by heart.
I collect and assemble props, model kits and action figures, and not always in that order. My room has become a treasure trove of all sorts of artifacts and figures.
I may not excel at spontaneously opening up, but I genuinely care and do my best.
I consider myself to be tranquil, sometimes my co-workers describe me as the embodiment of peace, but they might be overdoing it.
I don't recall when my love for Star Wars began, but I'm really proud of sharing it with my son. Watching the new shows together has been the greatest joy. It's always special to pass down interests and hobbies to the next generation.
Besides this, I love my time away playing GTA on the PlayStation.
I consider myself a fun and charismatic person who's always joking around (except in the morning... I need a bit of time to warm up my engines). I fell in love with Star Wars as a teenager, but I never imagined I'd find such a big niche I could truly belong to.
I handle the admin work, prepare shipments, reply to messages, and keep our social media active - always with Ugo on my lap, supervising everything and reminding me there's always time for a purr break.
I'm still new at Fenix, and I've got a lot to learn... but that's exactly what I love the most besides being surrounded by people who aren't just ordinary... they're from another galaxy!
Every team has that one essential member who keeps things running smoothly. For us, that's Ugo. Since he joined, we haven't had a single uninvited guest. His pest control skills are second to none. But if we're honest, his real specialty is a bit softer: requesting cuddles and spreading calm with his steady purr. It's a role he takes very seriously, and one he performs daily with every member of the team.
A true wanderer at heart, Ugo doesn't believe in sticking to one sleeping spot for too long. No matter how many cozy beds, cushions, or baskets we offer, he insists on rotating his headquarters weekly ...” never the same place twice.
