GROG figure it must be time to post a preview of the Tonga Hut Mug sculpted by Kirby and based on the signature Tonga Hut Moai by the front door. We're making a mold and plan on having the debut at the annual Tonga Hut Winter Wonderland art show in December.

It's a tall one--9and3/8 inches.

Based on this guy.

And here I was just wondering today why the TH didn't have its own mug. Thanks for the preview, guys, it looks awesome!

That's the Tonga Hut's "Big Mo" he is grand! Beautiful job Kirby and Ernie Grog. This is very exciting :D
If you were wondering why it took so long? It's always been a question of having to order so many mugs and more so, storage, the TH is small but mighty. It was very important to Jeremy that Kirby and Grog did this project as they both have been good friends to Jeremy and to the Tonga Hut from the very start so this mug really is a tribute to not only the Hut but to friendship and longevity. Congrats to Kirby, Grog and Jeremy.

Very nice mug ... how does one obtain one i.e. pre-order, if they won't be able to go to the actual event?

Thanks. Hanalei Tiki

I don't know why, but I keep thinking this mug would look great with a GREY glaze. Any other opinions?
I'm definitely getting one (or two) when they come out! Excellent work, Grog and Kirby!!
