I am not sure, though, does anyone here have one in there collection?

There are few of the Kauai Resort ones listed on Ooga-Mooga, but that website is next to useless as historical veracity goes. Anyone can put their mug under anything, and suddenly it's canon. I agree with the previous assessments, that loss of detail is a pretty sure sign it was copied from an original. The original Daga's look to have used white ceramic and had an indented bottom as well—not to say that Daga didn't make it, but it was definitely not one of their original early versions of the Warrior.
