Tiny Kong is Dixie Kong’s younger sister and cousin of Kiddy Kong and Chunky Kong. She is one of the five playable main characters of Donkey Kong 64. Tiny is the second female heroine of the series, and unlike all the kongs she’s had a growth spurt. This was due to her creators not wanting her to look much like Dixie, which in the first place she really didn’t.

Just like all the main kongs of this game she is imprisoned by the Kremling Krew at the start of the game. Once Donkey Kong frees Diddy Kong, Diddy can go rescue Tiny in the area Angry Aztec.
