Mini-Monkey[1] is one of Tiny Kong's abilities in Donkey Kong 64. It involves her shrinking to a small size, and its purpose is to allow her to access certain areas with entrances that are too small to enter otherwise. It is first described in Tiny's verse of the DK Rap,[2] during which she takes on a small form and beats up a Klaptrap. The Mini-Monkey can be bought for three Banana Bunch Coins at Cranky's Lab (which gives it a scientific name "Kongum Smallus") in as early as Angry Aztec. Tiny can take on her Mini-Monkey form by jumping into a Tiny Barrel. Like the other Cranky's Kong Barrel abilities, Mini-Monkey uses up a supply of Crystal Coconuts. In her Mini-Monkey form, Tiny can enter into Banana Fairy Island and meet the Banana Fairy Princess. There is one instance where the Mini-Monkey ability is used uniquely; in Angry Aztec, when Tiny plays Saxophone Slam on a Music Pad while in her Mini-Monkey form, Squawks arrives to pick her up and drop her into a tower where she races the Beetle. Mini-Monkey is also used at Hideout Helm to go through a small pipe and access the room with the Blast-o-Matic. The Mini-Monkey ability is used during the final battle against King K. Rool, where it allows Tiny to enter the hole in K. Rool's shoe and use her Feather Bow to shoot at K. Rool's toes.
