==Figures==
===6-inch Figures===
The six-inch figures in the line generally come in sets of one or two, along with several smaller human figures. The [[King Kong]] figures each have some sort of gimmick that distinguishes them from the others or allows them to interact with another specific figure. For example, the Kong that comes with the juvenile [[Vastatosaurus rex]] has the ability to pull apart the V-Rex's jaws, while the Kong sold with the [[Piranhadon]] can hold the Piranhadon in a headlock.
 
The six-inch scale figure sets are:
*[[King Kong|Kong]] vs [[Venatosaurus]]
*Kong vs Juvenile [[Vastatosaurus rex|V-Rex]] (includes [[Ann Darrow]])
*Kong vs [[Piranhadon]]
*Kong vs [[Terapusmordax]] (includes three Terapusmordax)
*[[Foetodon]] (includes five humans)
*Vastatosaurus rex (includes [[Weta-rex]] and three humans)
*Creatures of [[Skull Island]] (includes three humans)
*Gripping Kong (includes Ann Darrow and Weta-rex)

===Large-scale Figures===
There are four larger-scale figures released in the line. These figures are either 12 or 15 inches tall, and all except the 15-inch Deluxe Kong can make sounds. Despite being larger in scale, these figures come with the same human figures included with the six-inch figures. The Bull [[Vastatosaurus rex|V-Rex]] figure can actually swallow the human figures whole, which can then be recovered from a hatch on the underside of the figure.
*Roaring [[King Kong|Kong]] (includes three humans)
*Supreme [[King Kong|Kong]]
*Roaring Bull [[Vastatosaurus rex|V-Rex]] (includes three humans)

==Other==
===Costumes===
There are two separate [[King Kong]] costume sets: Electronic Kong Arms and Kong Face and Chains. The Kong arms are oversized gloves made to resemble Kong's hands that function similar to the popular "[[wikipedia:Hulk Hands|Hulk Hands]]" gloves, making sounds when they strike an object. The Kong Face and Chains consist of a King Kong mask and breakaway plastic chains.

===Kong vs V-Rex Battling Game===
A variation of the classic "[[wikipedia:Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots|Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots]]" game, the [[King Kong|Kong]] vs [[Vastatosaurus rex|V-Rex]] battling game includes a Kong and V-Rex piece, each on a base attached to a control stick. The players use the stick to make the figures punch each other until one collapses.
