Mimicus in the Dungeon

The treasure chest bares its teeth

Deep inside the dungeon, a treasure chest waits—but a hungry monster is hiding behind its wooden shell. The Mimicus opens its toothy maw and turns a promising discovery into a dangerous encounter. Two Kiddiz characters are ready to confront the living chest and explore its shadowy chamber. Dark walls, a textured floor and an open layout condense the action into a compact fantasy setting. Its playfully menacing design draws on the familiar mimic found in role-playing games and video games. With the scene assembled, you can create a new dungeon adventure whenever inspiration strikes.

The 191-piece build creates a compact minifigure-scale diorama measuring approximately 13 centimetres across. Low walls frame the action without concealing the characters or monster behind a closed façade. Slopes, plates and small decorative elements shape the chest-like creature with eyes, a tongue and prominent teeth. Seven printed elements add graphic detail as an integral part of the build. The included printed instructions guide you through the dungeon floor, surrounding scenery and central monster in manageable stages.

This set is primarily designed for children who enjoy inventing and replaying fantasy stories. Its focused encounter format also makes it an appealing scene for adult role-playing and tabletop fans. Both characters can be positioned freely around the Mimicus, while the open stage remains accessible from several angles. On display, the model captures the tense instant before the chest attacks. Its scale and colour palette also sit naturally beside other Herocraft locations such as the Dwarven Forge or the Necromancer's Citadel.
