You've fought against normal Mooks, now meet a smaller version of them. An impending Curb-Stomp Battle? Well... you can't be that sure. Sometimes, a Mini Mook will make up for its fragility by being so small and agile that just hitting them is a problem. And sometimes, they defy expectations by being a full-on Pintsized Powerhouse.
Often dealt with using an Area of Effect attack.
Some Mini Mooks come in swarms, relying on sheer numbers to compensate for their diminished strength.
Contrast Giant Mook. See also Adorable Evil Minions.

While mini estrellas were started in CMLL, AAA took it a step further with the mascot division, where every wrestler must be paired with smaller one using a derivative of his gimmick, or vise versa.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 has Whimps, tiny Whomps spawned as flunkies by the Whomp King. They're faster than regular Whomps, but die as soon as they attack. They also have an adorable high-pitched version of the Whomp's regular growl.

Wild C.A.T.s (1995) has the baby Daemonites, enemies who stood up to the players' kneecaps. They use the exact same sprites of the regular-sized Daemonites, and interestingly enough the game also have gigantic Red Daemonites as well - when these two enemies appear in the same screen a baby Daemonite can comfortably sit on a Red Daemonite's shoulder.

The Star-spawn of Cthulhu, who are basically mini-mes of Cthulhu. In this case, Cthulhu is a being the size of a mountain. His spawn are still large compared to the average adult human.
The Deep Ones themselves are mini-me versions of Father Dagon and Mother Hydra (at least, if Father Dagon and Mother Hydra exist; later writers assume that they do, at least).

In Half-Life, when you get to Xen you discover that the ubiquitous headcrabs are merely mini-versions of the Gonarch. (And the Gonarch spawns mini-headcrabs, as well.)
In Opposing Force, there is a mini-version of the voltigore.

The midget versions of Psychos and the Midget Shotgunners in Borderlands. They're hard to get a bead on because they dart around like mad as they try to engage you in close range.
The 1st DLC features zombies as enemies, and even has zombified midgets. Zombie midgets behave different from the regular ones — their MO is staying out of your field of vision and leaping in your face.
In Borderlands 2, every bandit enemy type has a midget version-even the Goliaths.

In The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Floormasters, when defeated, turn into three tiny Floormasters. They will kill you so freaking dead it is not funny. Whereas big ones shave off less than a heart per hit, the little ones grab you and each takes out multiple hearts until you dislodge it. All three grabbing you at once most likely means you're dead.)

One Nindroid in Ninjago is way smaller then his counterparts. He's called Mindroid.
A season earlier, the Ninja's first opponents against the Stone Army were tiny merchandise versions of them in the Ninjago Museum. Unlike their Nigh-Invulnerable life-sized counterparts, they can be destroyed with something as simple as a Goomba Stomp.

The Smallfry of Splatoon's Salmon Run mode can be easily splatted in one hit, or at most, two, from even light-hitting weapons, but they're fast, have a very small hitbox, attack in groups, and can even mess up a player's movement. Slower weapons like chargers will struggle to clear them away before lining up a clean shot on one of their brethren.

Bug had Reptilia, a stage with literal Army Ants that fired grenades from their tails. At the end of Scene 2, you come across a sign that says: "BEWARE! BIG ANTS". You then face off against three tiny versions of the ant enemies, but these don't do anything except flee from Bug. Until you get to the end... where you indeed fight a giant ant miniboss.
