I'm assuming that's a drum the purple one is banging on...?

But then, knowing Tikis, maybe not...

Yup! That's it! They finally done it. The grossest colors, and most twisted missappropriation of Tiki yet. I am quittin'....

...but yet, there is a strange pull eminating from these images, a weird perverse attraction, a devilish voice whispering "...but they are sooo adorable!!!".

NO! Must close eyes in horror, must not think, aaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Uh-huh, I'm his neighbor two grass huts away with the yard full o’ broken-down Tikis up on blocks.

You're right J.D., the Neon Tiki Tribe still is THEE single worst Tiki aberration. I had suppressed all memory of it, being in denial that something so awful ever existed under the Tiki banner.

Why did you have to bring it back? Arrrrrgh...first the stuffed Tiki Toys, now this...can't take it...the guilt, the guilt...I am responsible...all my fault...arrrgh....need Tiki Ti concoctions to fight bad voodoo...tonight -YESSS! A light at the end of the turning tunnel!

Aaaah, Mahalo Tiki Ti!

I don't know what the contest is but you shouldn't get them for winning, only for losing.

Maybe shoot the sunglasses off those Tiki Tribe Tikis? WHILE the guy is holding them? With a shot gun (please)?

Hey, at least those plush tikis don't have parrots on their heads! ... for now...

Good God those are awful.

Anyone hear if they're going to do a plush lamprey? Hopefully, when it comes out it won't have a parrot on it's head either.

Have you seen these (not my auction)

at the very least it's getting the kids' to recognise Tiki, even if it's in its most barstardised form and will hopefully lead them to the real thing in the future. Hopefully?

I'll design it if Purple Jade makes it!

Do nightmares need haunting?

That's gonna be my new screensaver!

Somebody thought they were doing me a favor by giving me one of those drummer guys. It does have a sound box in it, with drumming and an "Ooga Booga" voice track. Is that the Crazy Al voicebox?

the drummer is definitely my favorite.
no lips and purple is almost brown. well, closer than the other colours anyhow.

I stand corrected.

That image will haunt me and give me nightmares!
