Yeah, there's a reason Donkey, Diddy, and Dixie got major overhauls while the designs on classic characters that have only returned as statues have been very small. They're not rethinking them yet. It's only done to bring their last designs up to par with the contemporary Kongs.

I don't think this is what Kiddy would 100% look like if he returned in the flesh, but merely a refresh of his most recent appearance that can be drawn upon so the character can be referenced again. The same goes for Tiny, Chunky, and Lanky.
