Man, I wish I could rescue it. I drive a small VW Golf and this tiki is about 6 ft tall. (Not that I know if I could take it anyways. It is still their property, obviously.)

I posted it on here hoping someone on TC may have a contact or know someone in management inside the Bali Hai. Then hopefully they can find out if they plan on preserving or to see what was going on with it.

If they do plan on getting rid of it, hopefully a skilled artisan (Like Bosko) can preserve this fantastic piece of history.

Actually, does anyone know Kevin Kidney? Isn't he the one that refurbished the Mr. Bali Hai? I'll go to his site and email him this thread.

Also, Dustycajun posted this pic on another thread, this appears to be what the tiki originally looked like.
