Hello again everyone, and Happy Spring! It's that time again- yes, time for another big 'ol progress round up, showing off all the latest of what's to come from Cyberzoic!
While we had the usual pause in production for the Chinese New Year holiday in February, we've been off and running since, closing in on a finish date for wave B and finalizing the big beasts of wave C!
And just a quick heads-up for those that come here as your main source of Cyberzoic news- if you aren't doing so already, I highly encourage you to also follow our progress on social media at Facebook, Instagram, or X as I post weekly updates on our Cyberzoic Kickstarter progress among other projects. If social media isn't your thing though, you can also catch those same posts on our News' section of my website. Due to the higher engagement and reach of our social media compared to our Kickstarter updates, our focus is on the smaller updates for those channels as opposed to creating more frequent updates here. But that being said, you can always expect some brand new reveals and news here on Kickstarter first, so I hope you all stick around to the end to see all that the Creative Beast team has been cooking up lately- it's always a lot. Now let's go!
Wave B2 and C1 are shipping from the factory soon!
In my last update, I showed off the first in-packaged samples of the wave B2 armors and riders as well as a look at the early production. But this would of course be interrupted by the CNY break that began in early February and ran through the remainder of that month. Production recommenced in early March and below are just some examples of the in-progress painted parts.
Production for wave B2 is currently in its final stage, with finished samples being sent to me this week. For those following along, the previous estimate that I'd been provided with was for production to wrap up by late March. However, the factory needs a bit more time to make sure everything is functioning properly, so they now expect to have this assortment ready to ship by the end of April. But on the bright side, this wave B2 delay will align better with the release of the wave C1 beasts, both of which are estimated now for a June release for US and UK-based fulfillment. And with that in mind, we have...
The wave C1 beasts are also undergoing the last stage of production with final samples being prepared for my approval soon. And while we don't have packaged samples for these yet as of this writing, we have the next best things- paint samples and packaging layouts. Take a look!
But wait, why is the Beasts of the Mesozoic Yutyrannus crashing the Cyberzoic party? And where is the previously-mentioned Yutyrannus upgrade pack? Read on.
To recap the recent news: as part of the Cyberzoic Kickstarter incentives, those who backed the new versions of Dryptosaurus and Yutyrannus during the campaign, would also receive a complimentary upgrade set of the newly tooled neck and lower legs/ feet in their respective Beasts of the Mesozoic colors, thus allowing those who have purchased the original BotM versions of those figures to upgrade them with the same articulation as their Cyberzoic counterparts. And while this worked well with the Dryptosaurus, the Yutyrannus mold proved to be a bit more complicated. It turns out that because of the space needed inside the neck for the additional barbell joint, volume had to be reduced on the front of the torso to maintain the same proportions as the original figure.
As you can see below, the tooling for the torso had to be modified in order to fit the new neck properly, thus making the old body incompatible with new neck and leaving an unsightly gap if used with the older body.
This upgrade set started off being more complicated than the Dryptosaurus set since the original Yutyrannus had the head-keyed neck piece, which necessitated a retooled head to be included with the new upgrade set. So with the torso also being incompatible, it makes the most sense to just put the entire figure out for a second time. Plus, many people have asked us to reissue this figure anyway, so it ends up being the obvious solution.
However if you do have the original version, you'll be happy to know that it's expected to maintain its value since the new version will have some notable differences. Aside from the neck and ankle improvements, the reissue will also feature slightly brighter, greenish eyes, a medium display stand instead of the orginal rock base, and updated packaging to match the current look of the BotM line.
As for the Cyberzoic Yutyrannus Kickstarter campaign backers- we’ll be offering a credit of $35 toward the purchase of this figure, which was going to be cost of the upgrade set. To receive the credit, just follow these steps:
Preorder the BotM Yutyrannus hauli v2 reissue on BackerKit here.
After purchasing, contact us via Kickstarter messenger or at [email protected] to request the credit.
Once we confirm your eligibly as a Cyberzoic Yutyrannus backer from Kickstarter, we'll refund you $35.
And that's it! We would just issue a coupon, but the BackerKit platform doesn't allow this option, unfortunately.
For those wondering if backing the original Yutyrannus or other Tyrannosaur Series figures from our 2021 Kickstarter would also qualify you for this bonus credit- it does not, sorry. The backer incentives in that case were the reduced pricing and bundle options. This Yutyrannus upgrade credit is exclusively limited to the Cyberzoic campaign and is not retroactive with prior campaigns.
The packaging files for this assortment are finished and the final package printing is now underway. Here's sneak peek at what's to come!
Carnotaurus
Yutyrannus
Lizard Dragon
BotM Yutyrannus
Keep an eye on our social media channels for more news on final in-package samples soon!
Toylanta recap
We had a blast at Toylanta last month! There were plenty of highlights, like hanging with the Skeletron and Marauder crews as well as selling our T. rex figure to Married With Children’s star, David Faustino! You never what will happen at these shows.
Also, big thanks to Thomas ‘Nutty’ Spellman for hanging with us and providing some amazing photos of our table. The upcoming Cyberzoic offerings and our new Beasts of the Mesozoic/ Cenozoic 'Acro wave' prototypes were the centerpiece of our display. More photos can be found here.

Current production status for waves B2 and C, plus the Cyberzoic Comic debuts and more!
4 months ago
– Fri, Jan 16, 2026 at 10:37:42 AM
Hello again Everyone and Happy Belated New Year! I hope your 2026 is getting off to an excellent start so far. I for one had a great holiday season, but am glad to move on to the new year. Last year was an amazing one for Creative Beast Studio, which also means we've been super busy keeping up with all of our projects and day-to-day tasks. Hence why this Kickstarter update is a bit later than usual! But as a lot of you know, we always post smaller updates on our social media and news section in case anyone is seeking the current status.
With that all said, we have a lot to cover, so let's jump right in, starting off with..
Current Production Status
Wave B2
For those following our updates here, you know that Wave B2 (armors and riders) has taken a bit longer than anticipated, as most things tend to do. A large part of this is due to us working with a new factory for the majority of this segment (minus Helina and Fire Knight) and as you can assume this requires a lot of trial and error in terms of work process, especially when the items are new and complicated such as our dinosaur armors.
We faced another hiccup recently when we were given a revised production invoice for these items which had an average increase of about 35% for the armors dueto the unexpected labor invovled, which is pretty significant considering our profit margins on these items was modest to begin with. So I paused the project for a few weeks to get a second quote from our main factory. Their pricing was marginally better, but considering the time it would likely take to acclimate their team to the new items, which are quite complex, I didn't feel it was worth the small savings and decided to stay with the initial factory. I have a lot of confidence in this new factory and they've been extremely receptive and easy to work with, we just need to take everything that last step across the finish line.
All of that to say that wave B2 is now expected to be completed in late March, with the main fulfillment now estimated for early May. There was a chance of getting these done before the upcoming Chinese New Year break in February, but we both agreed that we can't rush them and the result would be better if they had time after the break to finish. So I do apologize again for the delay on these, BUT I'm so excited about how they're turning out so far, and I'm certain you all will be glad that we waited once you have them in-hand.
Production is underway!
Even with the big CNY break coming up, production for B2 is well underway and they're getting as far as they can before the holiday shutdown. Here's a behind-the-scenes look at some of that progress so far.
For more info on the wave B2 items including the current delivery estimates, you can always check the product listings on our Cyberzoic BackerKit Preorder store.
In package photos
In addition to the production progress, we also have our first-look at the painted in-package samples! This stage has always been one of my favorite parts- take a look!
Armors
Riders
We also have a look at the riders in-package, but note that Badlands Sentry and Knight Pilot are currently missing the inner background color, which will be there on the final versions.
Wave C1
Now onto the new Beasts! I'd previously reported that we were hoping to have all components of wave C ship at the same time, but the delay of B2 also affects what is now C2 as this is also being done at the new factory. More on that in a bit.
So the wave C beasts are now expected to ship ahead of the armors and riders as we've done with A and B. These beasts are currently expected to ship from the factory in mid-April, which means main fulfillment will be in late May/ early June. Currently, the factory has provided two rounds of test shots, and are currently working on paint samples to be finished before CNY.
Test shot update
As mentioned, we have received round two of the beast test shots. All of these figures had adjustments made such as improving articulation range and gap reductions between the parts for better function and appearance. I'll have more photos later on, but here's a quick look at the recent test shots.
While the improvements aren't noticeable in the photos, the wing fits to the body and the limb joints have been greatly improved for the second test shot version.
Package layouts
Package design work will begin later this month for these beasts, but we do have layouts for each figure to give you an idea of how they'll be packaged and what will be included with each one.
FYI- the Yutyrannus upgrade set is part of this assortment as well, but just isn't pictured here.
Wave C2
The armors and riders for wave C are coming along nicely and are currently in the fine cut stage.
I've reviewed and provided notes for the new fine cuts and work on these will continue right after CNY. There's no set completion date yet from the factory, but May or June seem likely. Here's a look at the fine cut models so far.
We'll have more news on these items in March!
Dragonslayer replacement parts are on the way!
This is a follow-up to my announcement from a recent news post in case anyone here missed it.
Replacement Dragonslayer parts sets will be available soon for no charge to anyone who ordered this armor unit. But please do not request this set unless you know that you need it as supplies are limited. While I'm not certain what percentage of the armors have defects, I wanted to make these available to anyone who needs them. These are currently being shipped to us along with the new Beasts of the Mesozoic/ Cenozoic 'Stegosaurus' wave, so we expect to have them in late February or early March. The set which consists of both helmet halves, both tank brackets, and center consul, will come in a plain white box as shown below.
If you ordered a Dragonslayer unit and have trouble with the helmet pegs or vehicle mode brackets, please contact customer service at [email protected] with your Dragonslayer order info and photos of the defective parts, and they'll put you on the waiting list.
We're so thrilled to finally have our first issue finished and are very proud of the result. Please be sure to give it a read and let us know what you think!
Also check out out this awesome animated teaser trailer for the comic and please be sure to share it with your friends!
Plus, issue 2 is well underway now- here's a sneak peek!
No info yet on the release date for issue 2, but we plan to get faster at these as we go along!

6 months ago
– Thu, Oct 23, 2025 at 11:01:52 AM
Hi Everyone!
I wanted to give you all a quick heads-up that the wave A2/ B1 just arrived at our US warehouse this morning!
I'm told that unloading and sorting into inventory will take place today and tomorrow, so fulfillment is expected to begin on Monday, Oct. 27th! As many of you know, the fulfillment process takes several days to complete, but we should have everything shipped out by this time next week.
Just to reiterate from my previous update, US fulfillment will include these regions:
North, Central, and South America (includes Canada and Mexico)
Australia
Middle East
Africa
As for our UK/ EU backers, Everything Dinosaur has informed me they plan to begin fulfillment by the end of the month, so we're all on a very similar timeline.
I should also mention that any preorders from the UK and EU that were placed after Aug. 1 2025, will be fulfilled from the US via duty-free shipping.
Address updates
If you need to update your shipping address for this assortment, please private message me here on Kickstarter or email at [email protected] as soon as possible so that I can adjust that information for you. This is the last call to make changes!
Last weekend for Cyberzoic A2/ B1 preorders!
With fulfillment imminent, we expect to have these items 'in-stock' next week!
With less than seven hours to go as of this posting, we're closing in on our fourth stretch goal as we look forward to a strong finish! Thank you to everyone who has supported us so far and for helping us establish a new gaming fanbase. As for anyone still considering- this is the last chance to lock in the best prices for our inaugural edition of ZOIC, plus access to the Kickstarter Exclusive Gold collector coin!
Also, be sure to join us tonight at 8pm EDT for a special edition of our Creative Beasts livestream where we'll be counting down the final hour of the campaign as well as running down our usual project news and toy talk.
That's all for this small update. As always, please follow us on Facebook, Instagram, and X , or visit the 'News' section of my website each week for all of the latest updates and announcements.

Hello everyone, it's time once again for all the latest on what's happening with Cyberzoic!
ZOIC fully funded in its first ten hours and with two stretch goals unlocked as of this posting. As you may have guessed by the name, the game spans across all of our 'zoic' brands- Mesozoic, Cenozoic, and Cyberzoic, with different play options such as paleo, sci-fi, and 5 and up!
Big shout out to our Creative Beast team of Ross Persichetti, Chris 'Chaotic' Albers, and David 'SpinoDude' Breguet for putting their hearts and souls into this project for over a year now, in addition to their usual contributions to the action figure work. The game wouldn't have been possible without their dedication and passion for this project, so please give it a look and tell anyone that you think may be interested!
You can also check out the ZOIC Kickstarter video via our YouTube channel, here:
The ZOIC TCG Kickstarter campaign ends this month, on Oct. 23rd, which will coincide with our next livestream as we count it down. The game will remain available after the Kickstarter, but this will be the only way to lock in the lowest price and get the exclusive gold color coin!
Okay, we now return to our regularly scheduled Cyberzoic update. :)
Shipping Status updated!
I know many of you are mostly interested in when the new items will be shipping, and since there are so many factors that can affect these shipping dates, I've updated the list I originally presented in the previous update, with an explanation of the adjustments for each section along the way. Please remember that the dates are best estimates and are subject to change.
All items can be referenced on our Cyberzoic BackerKit storeand/or on our main shop at creative-beast.com. Product listings on these sites will have the most current estimated release date.
Cyberzoic Wave A2- B1

Status as of this post: This assortment is now with our backers in Asia, while the sea freight stock destined for the US and UK is expected to arrive in mid-Oct. As usual, please expect an additional 1-2 weeks to pass through customs and for the truck freight to their respective warehouses. I'll send out a brief update in a few weeks once fulfillment is about to begin. If you have items from this wave and need to update your address, or message me directly with the new info. Please DO NOT share your information in the comments.

Status as of this post: Same exact status as the previous assortment, but about three weeks later. It is important to note here that we've expanded our China fulfillment to include Australia and New Zealand in an effort to build toward preorder fulfillment of all regions normally served from the US. The previous round of China fulfillment went very smoothly and we're ironing out methods to make this process as seamless as it is from the US. As long as the duty-free shipping costs remain reasonable for future assortments, it's a win win for everyone since backers can get their items earlier and for those outside of the US- without any US tariffs, while we bring less stock into the US to be taxed.
Cyberzoic wave B2 and BotM/C (Stegosaurus wave)
Factory shipping- December
Fulfilling from the UK:
United Kingdom
Europe
Est. delivery- late January/ early February
Fulfilling from China: (tentative):
North, Central, and South America
Australia
China
Asia Pacific
Japan
South Korea
Middle East
Africa
Est. delivery- mid to late December
Orders received on or after 12/1/25 will ship from the US. (estimated)
Status as of this post:
Cyberzoic B2- final armor prototypes ready for review; Riders beginning production soon
BotM/C: tooling completed- first test shots approved and paint samples are in-progress
My previous estimate of the factories being finished with these in October was a few months off. However, with the majority of fulfillment plan now changed to ship direct from China, a December delivery is still very possible. But please don't count on these arriving in time for Christmas, there are too many unknown variables.
Please note that this plan may need to be amended later depending on the actual cost of duty-free shipping from China in December, as well as the US tariff on China goods at that time. (The current tariff here in the US may change again after 11/10/25.) BUT, all that to say that I'm working towards China fulfillment for these items in December to all except the UK and EU, which will remain with our retail partner Everything Dinosaur, as this has been a very reliable and hassle-free method for us and our backers in those areas. If this plan needs to be amended, you can be sure that I'll let you all know well in advance.
Cyberzoic wave C
Factory shipping- February/ March
Fulfilling from the UK:
United Kingdom
Europe
Est. delivery- March
Fulfilling from China:
North, Central, and South America
Australia
China
Asia Pacific
Japan
South Korea
Middle East
Africa
Est. delivery- late February/ early March
Orders received on or after 2/10/26 will ship from the US. (estimated)
Status as of this post: Beasts- fine cuts finished, tooling in progress;
Armors and riders- fine cuts in-progress
This one is still a bit too far off for an accurate fulfillment estimate, but February or March seems likely. The Carnotaurus and Lizard Dragon are both currently in the tooling stage, with test shots expected sometime next month. And the armors and riders are still in the fine cut stage at the moment. Again, the current plan at this time is to again fulfill most of these preorders from China. More updates to come as they become available.
Okay, with that business out of the way, let's look at some beautiful toy-making progress!
Wave B2 Progress
We're getting close to final approvals for wave B2 and moving on to production soon. I recently received photos of the new paint samples for the armors and riders, as well as the package arrangements.
Armor layouts
Gunnrunner
These couldn't be sent to me before China's Golden Week, but I expect to have these in-hand around mid-Oct for final approval. Package designs will follow shortly afterward.
I'm also being sent these unpainted samples that are the final engineered versions of each armor, testing for fit and joint tightness. These white box arrangements also give an idea of how the final in-box presentations will look.
Gladius Prime
The missing parts in the trays will be filled in the final. These parts are being supplied by the other factory, but we'll come back to that.
Pyrodactyl
Being the only 'living armor' of this wave, Pyrodactyl is the most complex but also the one I'm most excited about.
Jetraptor
I should also mention that these samples don't yet have the blast effects, but they'll be there on the final.
Since some of the parts needed for wave B2 were created by our main factory (they did the A2 armors and riders as well as all beasts) I had them produce all of these parts for wave B2. These are done and are with the second factory now.
My goal is to keep our main factory working on the wildlife action figures, while the new factory works on the Cyberzoic armors and riders. We're hoping to have everything in-sync by wave C.
Rider layouts
And of course we can't forget the awesome human figures that ride these beasts, or in the case of Badlands Sentry, accompany the beasts. I guess they're more like handlers than riders...
Anyway, we have new photos of the final samples along with their package mock ups and a sneak peek at their blister card design files!
That's all for the wave B2 updates. More progress soon!
Wave A2 Preview Videos!
With wave A2 fulfillment happening soon, you'll want to check out our early look videos of each new armor set! These are totally new types of items for us, and we know they're new for you all as well. So we wanted to make sure to get instructional videos out ahead of the main fulfillment so you can familiarize yourself with the armors before you have them in-hand!
Dragonslayer armor with Argenteus
Saberbeast armor with Dragolina
Razorhound with Fire Guard
Sabre Tooth Tiger with Helina- Kickstarter Exclusive set
If you don't have time to watch these videos before receiving your armors, at the very least, please heat any tight joints when you first start moving them around- please do not force them. These new parts can sometimes get stuck after the assembly process, but with a little heat from a hairdryer or hot water, it'll be good to go for the rest of time you own it. Don't risk moving a tight joint, just heat it up!
Okay, and let's not forget about the wave B Beasts!
First off we have an early look at the fan-favorite Dilophosaurus wetherilli
And our friend Andy has posted the first look at the new Dryptosaurus aquilunguis
We'll be releasing early previews of the Cyberzoic Deinonychus antirrhopus and Utahraptor ostrommaysi this month, so keep an eye on the Creative Beast Studio YouTube channel!
Cyberzoic in Iceland!
I know we have a lot of collectors who love toy photography, and while my skills fail in comparison to many of the talented Creative Beast fans out there, I had an amazing opportunity to visit Iceland recently, and I just had to bring some prehistoric beasts along to shoot among the unique terrain. Take a look!
Last but not least, I want to let you all know that the whole crew will be out at LegionsCon again this year- bigger and better ever! The big event will be on Nov. 7-9th in Whippany, New Jersey, so mark your calendars.
As usual, we'll have a huge variety of products for sale including the new Cyberzoic wave A2/ B1 assortment, Wooly Mammoths final package samples and also prototypes for upcoming releases. This is our last show until next year, so come out and see us if you can!
Also, keep an eye on our YouTube channel in the coming weeks for early looks at the next Cyberzoic beasts as well as for our new Wooly Mammoths!
Until next time!

Another tariff pause, Wave A2 and B1 Beasts ship from the factory, plus the current Delivery Date rundown for EVERYTHING!
9 months ago
– Mon, Aug 18, 2025 at 07:40:55 AM
Hi All,
I wanted to send a quick update with some important information regarding recent changes to our upcoming fulfilment plans.
In light of yet another change to the US tariffs on Chinese imports, and after careful consideration, I’ve determined that the best way to proceed with the upcoming Cyberzoic shipment, A2 armors/ riders + B1 beasts, is to continue the majority of our fulfillment from the USA.
As of the past few months, our recent delivery dates had all been based on the strong possibility of fulfilling preorders from China via duty-free shipping, thus foregoing the 4-6 week transport time to our US warehouses. With the previously looming tariff expenses of 54%, we would have had no better option. However, with the news last week of another tariff pause, our entire strategy has had to be reworked (again). While the current 30% tariff is still substantial and will ultimately impact our MSRPs (more on that later), it does create enough of an incentive for continuing our main fulfillment from the US. I realize that many of you were looking forward to receiving these items sooner, and I sincerely apologize for the additional wait time.
Recent Tariff news
For anyone unaware, the US has extended the delay for the China tariff increase as of last Tuesday (Aug. 12th) for another 90 days, which means that it will hold at 30% for at least the next three months. Because of this, fulfilling the majority of our preorders from the US still remains our most reliable and most economically viable option.
Below is a breakdown showing where each region will be fulfilled from as well as the estimated delivery period and current assortment status. Please note that I've included ALL of our upcoming preorders here as I know many of you have Beasts of the Mesozoic/ Cenozoic items preordered as well.
Cyberzoic Wave A2- B1
Factory shipping- late August
US Fulfillment
North, Central, and South America
Australia
Middle East
Africa
Est. delivery- first half of October
UK Fulfillment
United Kingdom
Europe
Est. delivery- first half of October
China Fulfillment
China
Asia Pacific
Japan
South Korea
Est. delivery- first half of September
Any orders received on or after 8/15/25 will ship from the US.
Status as of this post: Prepping for factory shipment on Aug. 22nd
With this being our first attempt conducting any fulfillment from China outside of the Chinese region, we want to get familiar with this process by starting off shipping to nearby countries. This will allow us to develop methods for possibly expanding this service to other regions later on as long as the China duty-free pricing remains competitive. That being said, the following delivery estimates are still based on the idea that main fulfillment will continue to be from the US. I should also note that no changes are planned to our EU/ UK fulfillment for the foreseeable future.
(Future dates are still subject to change)
Mammoths
Factory shipping- late September
US Fulfillment
North, Central, and South America
Australia
Middle East
Africa
Est. delivery- first half of November
UK Fulfillment
United Kingdom
Europe
Est. delivery- first half of November
China Fulfillment:
China
Asia Pacific
Japan
South Korea
Est. delivery- first half of October
Orders received on or after 9/15/25 will ship from the US.
Status as of this post: Paint samples approved, Package designs submitted; production beginning soon
Of all of the items currently in the pipeline, the Mammoths have had the least number challenges and all is moving along smoothly thus far. That being said, with the latest tariff pause playing a factor in the final delivery dates, most customers are now expected to receive these in the first half of November instead of late September.
Cyberzoic wave B2 and BotM/C (Stegosaurus wave)
Factory shipping- October
US Fulfillment
North, Central, and South America
Australia
Middle East
Africa
Est. delivery- first half of December
UK Fulfillment
United Kingdom
Europe
Est. delivery- first half of December
China Fulfillment:
China
Asia Pacific
Japan
South Korea
Est. delivery- late October/ November
Orders received on or after 10/15/25 will ship from the US.
Status as of this post: Cyberzoic B2- final armor prototypes in-progress; 2 of 4 riders ready for production; BotM/C: tooling completed- first test shots in progress
Initially the Cyberzoic wave B2 items were expected to ship with the Mammoths, however, as we've experienced with the wave A2 assortment, the Cyberzoic B armors are proving to be much more complex to develop than the regular action figures, requiring multiple rounds of prototype revisions to ensure proper function and fit. Add to that that the wave includes items from two different factories, the coordinating of this wave alone has its own challenges. Thus, setting the date back another month will be necessary for Cyberzoic B2 and it just happens to line up with the next Beasts of the Mesozoic/ Cenozoic assortment. We're now aiming to have these to everyone in time for the 2025 holiday season.

Armors and riders- fine cuts in-progress
This wave is still in the early stages, but it's safe to assume that these won't be ready from the factory any sooner this December. After having two rounds of armor development under our belt at this point, though, we're optimistic about releasing all wave C components together.
Preordering
While we never like to give news of delayed reward fulfillment, the silver lining is that the preorder prices will remain available for a bit longer. I also want to confirm that due to these new tariff expenses, it has become necessary for us to increase the MSRP (Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price), for these new items once they're in stock, by 5%. But the current preorder prices will remain unchanged. For anyone still looking to preorder, you can find all of these items either on our BackerKit preorder store, or on our main web shop at creative-beast.com.
Please note that as of this update, all preorder listings have been updated with these new estimated delivery dates and final MSRPs.
Okay, that's all of the serious business for now. In other news...
ZOIC Trading Card Game coming to Kickstarter, Sept. 23rd!
One more thing I wanted to mention is that we have a new Kickstarter campaign coming next month, this time for our new ZOIC Trading Card Game!
Launching on Sept. 23rd 2025, the ZOIC TCG will combine all of our 'zoic' brands into one game, including Cyberzoic, with plenty of gameplay options ranging from paleo to sci-fi. And along with utilizing our amazing library of existing concept and package art, the game will also feature a ton of new art, exclusive to the game. Needles to say, we're also looking forward to producing an item that can be made and delivered fairly quickly!
Stay tuned to our social media channels in the coming weeks for more updates and in the meantime please share the news with anyone you think may be interested and see our landing page at: https://creative-beast.com/zoic/ for more information on all things ZOIC!
So that's all for now- a relatively short update for us, I know. While not as fun as I'd like, I hope you all found this helpful an informative.
