Heres my tiki finds. Not much, but I havent looked much though. Theres a few other things (old books, and a generic surfer/tiki carving), but this is the coolest stuff.

Lil tiki from NZ. 2 inches tall, cheap souvenir. Genuine wood though. The red coloured eyes are vinyl (for covering schoolbooks) cause the old eyes looked a bit plain.

Some tiki candles my girl bought for me. Scented, but I havent burnt em - they're too good. About 2 inches tall.

Plastic tiki a mate bought me while he was over in NZ. Gonna be the shifter in my new wheels. About 5 inches tall.

Oh yeh, the best is saved for last. A genuine ti toki decanter. Bought for $5! It still has the original label on the neck of the bottle, and is in immaculate condition. Not many brown bottles around, Ive only seen the green ones.

The bottom of the bottle

The worst part? I could have picked up another brown one in the same condition for another $5, but I didnt have the cash on me. When I eventually got back weeks later, it was gone like the day before. Bugger!
