Aloha,

More friends here on vacation and one asked me about the iron sculptures on the (long gone) Cinerama Theater on King Street pictured toward the end (maybe 20 pages from the back?) of Waikiki Tiki. It's now an auto parts store and the icons are long gone.

The manager disavows that they were ever there. I still think they are still in a storage area somewhere on site.

Here's a close up...

I can identify a few of them... but any ideas on the others?

Top left Confirmed: Japanese Kabuki Noh Devil Mask...
Top right? Is it an Balinese or Japanese devil dog figure?
Middle left: ???
Middle right? is it an Ultraman (or Kikaida) or a Lono?
Bottom Left Confirmed: Mayan Golden Burial Mask form! I've identified that one for sure.
