First Tiki Attempt - Tiki Carving

Any recommendations on size. I've seen 12, 18, 20, and 30 oz. Want some larger chisels for taking out a lot of mass in my next piece. On the fence about whether to invest in the FlexCut MC175 set of four mallet chisels. Compared to my Flexcut starter set, they look too large to be of any practical use. I don't plan on carving 10 foot pieces but something 4-6 feet requires a substantial tool. Anyone have this set and use it on a regular basis? Thanks for the help.
