Enter the Proboscideans!
Hey Paleo fans, we have an exciting new collaboration underway bringing one of the best known prehistoric animals into action figure form- the Woolly Mammoth! Commissioned by natural history content creators, PBS Eons, we at Creative Beast Studio designed and developed the most detailed and scientifically accurate Wooly Mammoth action figures ever! But as with Beasts of the Mesozoic, we'll need your help to make these beautiful new figures a reality.
Sculpted by animal anatomy master, Jun Huang, and articulated by our own Ross Persichetti, this 1/18th scale Wooly Mammoth figure is a whopping 9" tall and 14" long with tusks included.
The figure boasts 24 points of articulation, including a bendy wire trunk and even has poseable ears!
The figure's massive size would rival the largest of Beasts of the Mesozoic Tyrannosaurs or Ceratopsians!
Wooly Mammoth calf (baby)
Standing 2.5" tall and 3.5" long, the baby Wooly Mammoth is the perfect little companion piece to the adult Mammoth!
Designed and sculpted by Ross Persichetti, the baby Mammoth sculpt was based on the Lyuba specimen- a mummified baby mammoth!
Despite it's small size, this figure still sports 18 points of articulation and features a bendy wire trunk!
Articulation and construction
Each figure was designed to maximize poseability and maintain a realistic range of motion, while maintaining the anatomical forms of the original sculpt as much as possible.
I hope you all will consider supporting this project however you can- back, share, and follow along in the community section. We love celebrating the deep history of our natural world and we want to get as many amazing prehistoric animals into your action figure collections as possible. With help from companies like Eons, this becomes more of a reality than ever!
If you've already backed this project, thank you so much!

Hi Everyone, I just wanted to let everyone know that the Beasts of the Mesozoic: Ceratopsian Series BackerKit Pre-Order Store is up now!
Note that credit card pre-orders on BackerKit will not charge until Feb. 7th, 2020 so as not to interfere with holiday spending. Paypal is also accepted, however it will have to be collected at the time of the order.
Funding on BackerKit has continued to unlock additional figures and seven more have been funded so far with only three more to go!
So if any of you Raptor Series Backers are on the fence about the Ceratopsians, or if you missed out on the Kickstarter, here's another chance to participate in the funding and lock-in the pre-order pricing.
And in Raptor News
Before I go, I wanted to mention the latest issue of Game Informer Magazine because the Beasts of the Mesozoic: Raptor Series was included in this year's Holiday Gift Guide. What an honor!
Until next time - take care!
