King of Tokyo has so many fun kaiju monsters in it. At first it seemed like they wanted to cover various kaiju archetypes, but they’ve gotten crazier as they go.
When I made the miniatures, I mostly focused on the archetypes they represent- and that remained true as I created the minis from expansion content.

This is Cthulhu. I made him from a number of different pieces- his body comes from an old Monsterpocalypse mini, his arms come from a Reaper troll and the wings come from another Reaper mini. His face is actually from a chibi Cthulhu miniature- and I think that really fit with the King of Tokyo look.
I did some sculpting to put all the pieces together and made him a dynamic “Tokyo Bay” base. Because Cthulhu should be special.

For Pandakai, my original plan was to create something very similar to the Pandakai artwork.
Then my daughter realized that I was making a panda kaiju and made it very clear that this obviously ought to be a red panda kaiju. So the plan changed a bit.
The main body of this comes from a were bear miniature, but a lot of it has been sculpted- including the whole head and tail.

I still think that Pumpkin Jack is one of the stranger designs for King of Tokyo. While I keep several jack-o-lantern miniatures on hand at all times, it took me a while to pick the base mini. This creeping pose comes from a Shadows of Brimstone demon (I sculpted all the clothing)

Last of all is Boogie Woogie. This monster’s design was completely changed for the second edition of the game- from a Blob reference to a Nightmare Before Christmas reference.
And the mini is the only King of Tokyo miniature that I really didn’t alter. I just found a suitably sized Oogie Boogie sculpture and created a base for him.
