- Beastly Theories (Episode 16) Replicant Life with Jean St. Jean
Jean St. Jean is a musician turned sculptor, who began his career in a small upstate NY toy sculpting studio doing mostly preschool toys and dolls. Five years later he joined McFarlane Toys quickly assuming the mantle of Sculpting Supervisor. In 2004, he forged Jean St. Jean Studios, L.L.C., offering sculpting, painting and prototyping. He has worked on such properties as Diamonds Select’s Stargate and Battlestar Galactica toy lines, Batman 1966 figural busts, Marvel statues and action figures, Universal Monsters and Munsters action figures and Sin City toys. He’s also contributed to product lines for such properties as World of Warcraft For DC Direct/Blizzard, and Thundercats, Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Nightmare on Elm Street for Mezco Toyz. Creatureplica is his first foray into an original toy line, partnered up with Jeffrey Beyers, Nick Epley and Craig Deere of Pana, Illinois. His Creatureplica action figure designs and his original creature busts and statues under Jean St. Jean studios represent decades of interest in the pursuit of the world’s most elusive creatures, capturing their folkloric images in three dimensions to create the world’s most realistic cryptozoological sculptures!

BEASTLY THEORIES - is a low tech, low key, low brow endeavour; to discuss the highs and lows of Cryptozoology research and obsession. Although 'podcast' in name, the 'show' is more of an exercise in nepotism, as I seek conversation with those embroiled in the subject I am chiefly interested in and to avail myself (and you) of the prize of knowledge, that lies inside their brawny brains.
