Evil Jack in the Box by Mia Kay M3DM

The chest looked ordinary enough — until the lid flew open and something ancient, grinning, and very much alive uncoiled itself from within.

• ✔ 32mm scale resin miniature, printed fresh to order in the UK
• ✔ Supplied unpainted and ready to prime
• ✔ Compatible with D&D, Pathfinder, and all tabletop RPGs

This is not a mimic. This is something worse. The Evil Jack-in-the-Box is a contorted, leering creature with an unnaturally elongated torso, wild jester's garb cross-stitched with crude markings, and a dagger raised mid-lunge — bursting from an ornately carved box with all the gleeful menace of a trap that was always meant to find you. Its hollow grin, clawed reaching hand, and coiled spring-like body make it one of the more unsettling miniatures you'll place on a table, and one of the most memorable.

Two sculpt variations are available: a larger display-scale version with a detailed scenic base — the creature fully emerged, dagger aloft, one hand splayed wide — and a compact tabletop-scale variant that fits neatly into any dungeon corridor or treasure room encounter. Both sculpts are packed with character: the jester-style stitched clothing, grotesque facial expression, and baroque box detailing reward careful painting and read clearly from across the table. Whether you're running a Ravenloft horror arc, a twisted carnival dungeon, or simply want a boss monster that will genuinely unsettle your players, this is a characterful, specific threat — not a generic monster.

Perfect for adventurers who:

• Run horror-themed or Ravenloft-adjacent D&D campaigns
• Need a memorable dungeon trap or cursed object encounter
• Want a villain or boss monster with genuine visual menace
• Collect and paint grotesque or dark fantasy miniatures
• Are building a twisted carnival, jester court, or cursed hoard dungeon

Encounter Hook:
The party finds the treasure room intact — suspiciously intact. At the centre of the chamber sits a single carved box, its lid engraved with laughing faces. When the rogue reaches for it, the Perception check comes too late: the lid explodes open, and something that has been coiled inside for a very long time unfolds itself to its full, terrifying height, dagger already swinging.

Details

What's included:
Supplied at 32mm scale. Two sculpts available — the large version includes a detailed scenic base (attached); the smaller variant comes with a detached plain base that attaches easily. Both are supplied unprimed and unpainted, ready for your brushwork or striking straight from the shelf as display pieces. Supports are removed prior to dispatch; as with all hand-finished prints, minor marks are possible and easily tidied up.
