Creative Beasts Live Episode 35 Recap: Dinosaur Restocks, Dire Wolf Merch and Short-Faced Bear Reveal

Catch the highlights from Creative Beasts Live Episode 35! This livestream recap takes a closer look at returning Beasts of the Mesozoic dinosaur action figures, two Dire Wolf merchandise designs, and an exciting Beasts of the Cenozoic short-faced bear reveal. Along the way, the team shows off articulation improvements, refreshed packaging, and plenty of Halloween-season fun.

Returning Dinosaur Figures Get Articulation Upgrades

The recap kicks off with a look at returning dinosaur favorites, including updates that give collectors more options for posing and display.

The Pachyrhinosaurus and Diabloceratops reissues feature bendable tails, adding movement to their silhouettes and making their poses more dynamic. The demonstrations show how much personality a change in tail position can bring to these articulated ceratopsian figures.

Dryptosaurus Returns with Updated Ankles

The returning Dryptosaurus action figure receives updated ankle articulation and retains its alternate posed legs. Those legs work with the included base, giving collectors another way to display the dinosaur.

There is also something for Cyberzoic collectors: Dryptosaurus is compatible with the Gladius Prime armor, opening up another option for an armored dinosaur display.

Refinements to Returning Favorites

The team also highlights improved arm attachments on another returning figure, with pins securing the arms through the joint. A more restrained application of blue paint behind the eye brings a subtler appearance to the updated release.

Of course, no Halloween-season discussion would be complete without a debate over dinosaur colors. One striking theropod’s orange-red, black, and purple palette sparks a friendly disagreement over whether its brightest markings should count as orange or red!

Updated Packaging Adds Shelf Appeal

The returning Beasts of the Mesozoic figures also make an impression in their packaging. The team praises the refreshed presentation, comparing the boxes to miniature display cases.

For collectors who enjoy keeping figures in their packaging, the presentation offers another way to appreciate the dinosaurs alongside the artwork that accompanies them.

Fire Wolf or Moon Wolf? Dire Wolf Merchandise Highlights

Episode 35 introduced two different takes on Dire Wolf merchandise. One design embraces a bold, retro style with a fiery wolf illustration, while the other takes a moon-themed approach.

The contrasting designs sparked a lively audience discussion: Fire Wolf or Moon Wolf? Whether you prefer an over-the-top 1980s-inspired wolf shirt or a lunar design, the pair offers two distinct ways to celebrate this prehistoric canine.

The merchandise reveal also includes a moon-design sticker and a fire-design mug, extending the artwork beyond the shirts.

Beasts of the Cenozoic Short-Faced Bear Reveal

The recap’s biggest reveal is an upcoming short-faced bear for Beasts of the Cenozoic. After a few playful guesses from the hosts, the team confirms that the sculpt represents a new prehistoric mammal planned for the line.

Collectors hoping to learn its final scale will need to watch for further announcements. During the livestream, the team explained that scale had not yet been determined, although releases in both 1/18 and 1/12 scale were discussed as a possibility.

The reveal offers an early look at the project rather than a final product announcement. Pricing, release timing, and the final scale lineup were not confirmed in the recap.

Halloween Fun with the Creative Beast Team

Alongside the figure updates and merchandise reveals, the recap captures the lighter side of Creative Beasts Live. A costume poll brings out some friendly competition, with Ross taking the top spot and David finishing second.

It is a fitting finish to an episode packed with prehistoric collectibles, new developments, and the enthusiasm of the Creative Beast community.
