if folks were willing to pay what it cost to carve and ship real wood tikis, we wouldn't have plastic ones....plastic exists cause people are cheapskates!!

don't get me wrong..i know we are not all made of money and hard economic times befall us....but when we constantly want more and more consumer goods at lower costs, sacrifices get made, jobs get shipped overseas to folks willing to work for less than they would here, cheaper materials get substituted for nicer ones and the whole sorry chain of events begins, finally crash landing in the party goods store with all the colorful cheap ugly tiki stuff....
