Discussion on style and art influences are great, and the complexity of all the elements that Tiki sprang from is why it has such an appeal to highly creative and people with above average intelligence.

But this thread was specifically started as a query by MakeDaMug as to whether there is a viable interest in a re-release of King Konga

Discussions of the sculpture itself would be ideally made in a separate thread. Why? Because it lets this thread serve its intended purpose and it would create another thread where the focus could be entirely about what is and isn't Tiki. (Have we ever tried such a thread?) (Oh, wink.)

When every thread becomes a free for all of posting whatever thought anyone has it dilutes the excellent data base Tiki Central should be.

Yep, I'm repeating myself, but we all tend to do that around here.

PS: This wasn't an attempt to defend the King Konga sculpture from criticism. It's a well executed piece that I don't personally care for. Mainly for all the reasons cited by bigbrotiki.
