(they had similar ones at Big Lots and Home Goods) Also saw some different styles last spring. I don't know if any will still be in stock, but if the pattern holds, spring 06 should have some new resin-tikis at these places. Apart from that, I'd take Benz advice and hook up with a carver here on TC. There's some amazing talent on here (Ben himself is no slouch!) and you may find that the shipping is worth it to have a one-of-a-kind piece of art from a fellow TC'er. Good Luck, and keep us posted! ps these resin tikis were only about 3 to 3 1/2 feet tall, so they may not fit the bill [ Edited by: Bargoyle 2005-08-01 08:56 ]
