Here by the way is the OTHER Tiki used in the series.... one of the mysterious GOLDEN kind. Beware, as he turns people into VOODOO PUPPETS!
...not really:
The plot of this 0ctober 1966 "VooDoo" episode is full of Tiki buzz words, but I remember this script to be a little too inane - if that is possible for a Gilligan episode! However, the Tiki is easily identified by the seasoned Tiki collector as Paul Marshall Products' "Easter Island Bust":
...whose black lava surface has been shiny-ed up with a coat of gold late 60s -style, much like I was referring to in my "Golden Tiki" theory in this thread: I still have yet to see "High Man on the Totem Pole":
The "Kupa Kai" (a play on the Kapu Kai?) sound promising, but a search for an image reveals that the prop department did a pretty lame job in 1967: http://www.gilligansisle.com/totem.html My money is still on Kona as THE best Gilligan Tiki of the few. |
