God forbid you give any criticism on Facebook, holy hell you'll get your head cut off! Glad to see a bit more of a balanced assessment here.

I believe the mai tai mug is NOT from Tiki Farm. The bottom only reads "©Disney" and that's it! This is very unlike the rest of the Tiki Farm mugs as we're all well-aware of. My suspicion is that this is made by another company, possibly the same one who made the glass version. This is far too plain for me and almost feels like something more based in Mexican or Central American history. I realize it's the maui tiki face from the Polynesian Village Resort but the plain ol beige communicates that to me. Some faux wood grain and deeper texturing would definitely help.

The Uh Oa is actually a nice look - I prefer mattes but I enjoy this glaze. I think it's different from what most mugs have been at Sam's.

And the yellow Krakatoa...I get why most people don't like it. I'm sort of torn down the middle - I never liked the "nacho cheese" orange of the mugs in the past, though this particular color of yellow doesn't seem to be the right fit. If it were a bit darker or saturated I think I'd be down. I do like the more gray-toned matte majority of the mug as opposed to the browner tone. Still, the only Krakatoa mug I own is the red and gray matte from Grog Grotto in Orlando.

If anybody has a lead on who made the Mai Tai mug that would definitely be helpful!
