And will forever with those little Mai Tiki chisel marks... It was very rewarding how jazzed he was that I included him in my 'classic mainland tiki chess pieces' seeing that the Book of Tiki left him for the second edition.. Since he was a newcomer and all.... Wayne said he was working on "The Book of Tacky".
