Moai in Hawaii - General Tiki

You can see it from the street - very cool. Here's what he looked like at the old location on the Great Lawn: (Photo from the Honolulu Star Bulletin, or maybe the old Batman TV show - I have no idea why they published such a crooked photo) According to the Polynesian Cultural Center website, they have 7 moai, carved by artists from Rapa Nui. Just curious - why are you interested in moai in Hawaii? There aren't all that many tikis, much less non-indigenous moai.
