Someone from Trader Vic's corporate Wholesale called me and told me that they do not sell to individuals, but only to the restuarants.... The Rum barrel is not for sale, but the scorpion, somoan fog cutter, the tahitian, the mai tai, the aloha coconut, and the moai scorpion bowl is for sale. Moai is going for $30.

Some updates...

for my birthday, Mrs. Zombified ordered me some goods from TV's. The good news is that Gail in customer service hinted at the fact that they considering and/or are in the process of adding their mugs & bowls to their online store (!!!) Very cool indeed.

The problem with my order is that I was really hoping for a Moai Bowl, but when my wife was describing it over the phone, they had never heard it called a "Moai Scorpion Bowl" and in the confusion I received this:

Which is great, but I already have one. Now I've heard this called a Hula Bowl, Aloha Bowl, Scorpion Bowl, etc. I really am beginning to think that Trader Vic's calls their mugs something completely different from our "street" names (so to speak). Example, the packing slip listed the Skull mug as a "Hot Buttered Rum Skull Mug". It can be confusing to say the least.

Until they're available online, can anyone shed some light on names? Also, what is the "Tahitian"? I probably know it, just not by name.

Photos please.
