Aloha TC ohana,

I've been swamped but here it finally is. My tribe of Tangaroa'z are ready to see da rest of da world.

Because I'm still behind a little on my hand painted Tangaroas I have to hold onto the ones with it's buto. There wasn't many of those made because I didn't think it would get the reponce that it has gotten. Every person who has requested a Tangaroa ask for the one with his "buto"(penis) as we say here in Hawaii. I didn't know how peopo would feel drinking out of a mug with a buto looking at his companion dead in the face(befor I decided the tapa cloth malo) so we made more w/out it. It's just as bad ass though w/out because you can really see its legs holding up the mug. I won't be able to tell untill after December of how many I have left with. I stared the exclusive hand painted versions with it's buto so I have to finish that way sorry. If there are any left you will be da first to know.

Well, for TC members it's $25+ $12.55 for shipping from Hawaii to us mainland. I will ship to other countries just email me your zip.

Mount Bumatay is on Christmas special for only $15! down from $20. buy them both and they can be mailed in the same box for $16 to the mainland. If you are just getting the Bumatay $7 is shipping.

you can pay by paypal by creditcard, MO or checks. You know da story w/checks.

please just tell me your TC member name for the $25 price on Paypal because these are going on ebay at a buy it now for $30 and I don't want to charge you guys the wrong price. Note on paypal what your paying for please! [email protected] is the paypal addy.

Mahaloz for your cotinued support TC!
Great job Hanford! it's a Int Marketplace!

Mount Bumatay is on Christmas sale $15

everyone else that has ordered the other mugs should have gotten them already. Email me with any questions.

Aloha

Funny Kono! I really needed to hold onto these but I think if I'll let 30 go it won't hurt the "buto" inventory. I should still be able to get out my painted orders. those won't be on ebay, only here. First come first served by the Tangaroa w/ da "Buto"

Oh Boy! I want buto!

Order placed!

I've been waiting for this mug since the moment I saw it. Gecko, Thanks for such a great design.

Even if it does not have buto, it sure has butt-o!

Hey!

Got mine in the mail today... A hell of alot faster than I thought. It's even cooler in person. I'm gonna have to put my Holy Grail into storage and throw away my Maltese Falcon to give this mug prime location on my shelf!

-Z

Thanks Gecko! Got my Tangaroa w/ buto today and it's BIGGER and BETTER than I ever imagined! I'm very pleased. Looks incredible on my bar along with my other Gecko mugs! Keep 'em coming Gecko and I'll keep collecting 'em!

Got mine in the mail today and you really outdid yourself Gecko. Awesome mug and it's HUGE too (the mug I mean). Much bigger than I expected. Anyone who hasn't ordered one of these is doing themself a disservice. Even you who only like the vintage mugs, this mug looks more vintage than your mugs. It looks like it belongs in a museum. Great job Gecko.

gotta hand it to you! This is one of the most outstanding mugs from an independant. -well worth the clams!! well crafted clever design. keep up the good work!! If anyone hasn't ordered this mug yet I urge you to do so.....

hey gecko - maybe i am slow but i can't follow this thread - do ya got any with the butos available (i love the tapas cloth) - lemmie know and i would be more than happy to shoot ya some paypal cash.

thanks - michael g
