About this Episode
Billy and Eric interview David Silva, owner of Creative Beast Studio, about his career as a toy maker and his current projects, including a Kickstarter for his new Science Fiction IP Cyberzoic!
About David and Creative Beast:
Creative Beast Studio made its name with “Beasts of the Mesozoic” — scientifically accurate dinosaur action figures including Tyrannosaurs, Raptors, and Ceratopsians (Triceratops). Now owner David Silva is taking on another beast: his first science fiction IP “Cyberzoic.”
Inspired by classic sci-fi and fantasy properties Dino-Riders, Transformers, Masters of the Universe, and Zoids, Cyberzoic’s intricate action figures and comic books tell the story of humankind’s near-extinction on a distant planet in a dystopian future. The brand features armored dinosaurs, dragons, prehistoric mammals, alien wildlife, and warring human clans.
Cyberzoic’s narrative engages adult fans of sci-fi, fantasy, and action figures. Silva used his 20 years of experience crafting figures for Star Wars, Jurassic Park, Godzilla, Spiderman, G.I. Joe, Terminator 2, Aliens, Predator, Spawn, and Pacific Rim to bring Cyberzoic to life.
