Show Notes: Spirit Fueled Heroes with Ancientz creator, Howard “Quiggly” ChangIn this episode of the podcast, host Michele interviews Howard "Quiggly" Chang, a former lead toy concept artist for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, about his transformative faith journey and the creation of "Ancients," a franchise of biblically inspired robot collectibles. Howard shares how a personal encounter with God 12 years ago during a difficult divorce led to visions that inspired these characters, blending elements of Robotech and Pokémon with biblical stories from Hebrews and beyond. Now remarried, he and his wife Gloria have rapidly developed eight characters, launched a Kickstarter campaign, and debuted at Comic-Con, attracting interest from manufacturers, investors, and potential collaborators like Angel Studios. The discussion explores the mission to spark curiosity about the Bible through toys, future plans for a warrior series featuring faith-sharing athletes, and the importance of trusting God's provision over self-reliance.Chapters:- 00:00 - Introduction and Howard's Faith Journey  - 03:36 - Remarriage and Launching Ancients  - 06:45 - Inspiration Behind the Ancients Franchise  - 10:02 - Comic-Con Debut and Potential Collaborations  - 12:21 - Showcasing the Collectible Figures  - 15:52 - Mission, Crowdfunding, and Angel Investing  - 19:53 - Future Plans: Warrior Series and Celebrities  - 21:28 - Nugget of Wisdom: Trusting God Over Idols  - 26:17 - Closing Thoughts and Kickstarter Update  Keywords: Ancientz franchise, faith journey, biblically inspired robots, Kickstarter campaign, Comic-Con, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, VeggieTales, Angel Studios, collectible toys, biblical visions, warrior series, Scottie Scheffler, Tim Tebow, Holy Spirit guidance.Connect:IG: @quiggly.dazeQuigglyart.com
