Having been inspired by the Coco Joe's vs HIP thread, I've been looking for info on what sort of Coco Joe's repro items are being made today. I found this site, which has loads of Hawaiiana:

There are some carvings, "lava" creations, hapawood and museum reproductions here:

Would any of our members who may have seen them at retail tell us if the ex-Coco Joe's items look to be from original molds or from second generation molds made from old pieces?

In searching TC I found a previous reference to this site: http://www.tikicentral.com/viewtopic-new.php?topic=4460&forum=1
...but it dealt only with carved coconuts so I thought I'd better start another thread rather than add to it and go off on a Coco Joe's repro tangent.
