yeah it's about 3 ft or so.

the way i collect is this: if it gives me that far away/exotic feeling then i'm buying it and putting it in my bar. Personally I know what type of idol/sheild/decor comes from what region. Meaning I know it may have come from the Pacific or from Africa, but if it helps me forget my troubles and stress of the day when I'm around it, then I get it. I know it's not "tiki" (meaning the Pacific islands), but I proudly display it anyways.

Kono:
Hobby Lobby is like Micheal's or MJDesigns or Kirklands in some areas. Basically it's a walmart for craft, fabric, home decor, and very...VERY little hobby. MJD no longer carries model trains and have greatfully scaled back on model cars and such.
The Moai heads mentioned ranged from planters to tables. I personally bought 4 of the planters because they where on clearance and didn't know thye carried such items.

here's an old thread: http://www.tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=6539&forum=1
