Special abilities are used to eliminate the competition or to tuck their tail between their legs and run away before they are taken out. <\/p>\n<p>The game is jam-packed with pieces sure to please any gamer. Along with the four fully painted 2 3\/8 inch plastic Kaiju figurines, the game also includes 90 stackable plastic tiles for building skyscrapers, four individual monster playmats, 86 terrain and power tokens, and much more.
