Tiny Kong in her older version from Diddy Kong Racing DS. She looks more like a teenager than she did before.

Tiny King is Dixie Kong’s younger sister and as such is the cousin of Kiddy Kong and Chunky Kong. She is one of the five playable characters in Donkey Kong 64. She is very nimble and is the fastest of the characters in DK 64.

In this game Tinyis one of the many Kongs imprisoned by the Kremling Krew at the start of the game. She is found in The Llama's temple in the area Angry Aztec.

Once Tiny is released players she can collect purple Bananas, coins and Blueprints.

Throughout the game Tiny gains a variety of abilities from drinking Cranky Kongs various potions. Some of these include becoming very small (mini monkey) floating through the air (ponytail whirl) and warping from one place to another (?). Tiny's weapon is the Feather Shooter. His instrument is saxophone.

In the GameBoy Advance remake of Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest and Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble Tiny appears in several of Funky Kong's mini-games, Diddy and Dixie would often have to rescue her with the aid of the Gyrocopter or boat. In this game she has a high pitched squeaky voice.

Tiny was also going to appear in the now apparently cancelled Donkey Kong Racing, her appearance was slightly altered in this game. Tiny is confirmed to appear in Diddy Kong Racing DS (in which she looks older and different) and DK Bongo Blast.

Criticism

Many people dislike Tiny because of her likeness to her older sister Dixie Kong. This could be the reason she was redesigned for Diddy Kong Racing DS.
