Okay, the 45 anniversary of the glorious Enchanted Tiki Room is being celebrated, but this time around Shag is seemingly not involved. Does anyone know why? Some artists were asked back. Was Josh not interested or was Disney not interested in keeping the items in limited edition like most of his stuff. Or was he stung by the left over Pink Panther items and is avoiding licensed themes? Either way I'm pissed there won't be any more of his mugs inspired by the room. He did such a great job last time. Shag has yet to stumble with any Tiki theme.

I guess I only speak for myself when I say that I feel "Shagged to death". He's a great guy and does some excellent art, but I'm glad Disney is giving someone else a chance. I think Amanda Visell's 45th artwork is awesome! In my book she is right up there with Shag when it comes to Enchanted Tiki Room art with that retro look that I love so much.
