I have seen these on Ebay for years. I don't know where they come from, but I recognize the style. These are new as Sven says. I don't watch Ebay like I used to. My searches are very specific now. But maybe 3 years ago you saw this style on there continually. They were usually in bunches. You'd get one picture of 4-5 of them and each auction would be "for the 2nd from the left, etc." Not any carvers work around here. No background. They were fresh off some boat. What Bigbro says sounds right. I never really looked into them and never really liked the style. Too rounded off. Mud tikis.

Not to burst a bubble. Probably a good price for them, but the moment I saw that little guy I knew it was one of those same ones. They might be a few years old, might be newer.
