Meet the Mimic
Every adventurer learns the same lesson eventually:
Never trust the treasure chest.
The Mimic is one of the most iconic monsters in tabletop RPG history. Disguised as an ordinary chest, crate, or piece of dungeon furniture, it patiently waits for greedy adventurers to approach before revealing rows of razor-sharp teeth and a massive adhesive tongue.
This Mimic miniature brings that classic tabletop terror to life with incredible personality and detail. From monstrous lunging attacks to sneaky peeking poses, each sculpt captures the chaotic and unpredictable nature of these shape-shifting predators.
The sculpt showcases the creature mid-transformation, with its wooden chest disguise splitting open to reveal a grotesque mouth filled with jagged fangs and an enormous muscular tongue. Clawed limbs stretch outward as the creature lunges toward its next victim.
Whether used for comedic moments or sudden deadly encounters, Mimics are legendary for creating some of the most memorable moments in tabletop gaming. Few things make players panic faster than realizing the treasure they just touched is actually a monster.
This miniature embodies that perfect balance between horror and humor that makes Mimics beloved by Dungeon Masters everywhere.
Designed with Yasashii Kyojin Studio
This miniature was expertly designed by Yasashii Kyojin Studio, known for crafting expressive and dynamic fantasy creatures with dramatic silhouettes.
The Mimic sculpt emphasizes movement, personality, and detail. The wooden textures of the chest disguise contrast beautifully with the organic monster hidden inside, creating an excellent opportunity for painters to explore wood effects, monstrous flesh tones, slime textures, and glowing saliva.
From exaggerated fangs to stretched muscular forms, the model captures the unsettling transformation between harmless object and ravenous monster.
Each pose presents the Mimic in a different stage of deception or attack, making this miniature collection perfect for Dungeon Masters who want to surprise their players again and again.

From the Crafty Llama Tables
The rogue grinned.
“Finally,” he said, brushing dust from the ancient chest. “Treasure.”
The wizard sighed. “Wait. Something feels off.”
Too late.
The chest exploded open with a wet, monstrous roar. Teeth snapped around the rogue’s arm as a massive tongue whipped out and dragged him closer.
The barbarian stared in horror.
“Why,” he asked slowly, “does the treasure have teeth?”
The cleric quietly began preparing healing spells.
