I really had my heart set on the Elvis Blue Hawaii Tiki Bob for $700 but they look even more tempting, especially at that price.

I probably should have used the razz icon in my post, that's probably the closest to a sarcasm one.

I like the war god mug myself, but for that money i'd rather come visit you Scott and buy some of your mugs while i was over there. I could bring back some of Robs and Geckos at the same time.

Is that an undercut on the lower lips? Maybe that's why are so valuable

I could be mistaken, but I recall reading that Jonice Frank gave the War God copyright to Wendy.

Hi, dartharnie just sent this thread to me to check out. It is true. I have the paperwork and I own the copy write to the Frankoma Tiki line including this War God. I have just started to produce some bowls using Joniece Franks sculpture rather than my own. So Witch Doctor hands off! Besides you make tons of your own terrific designs.

You can see the projects that I'm working on along with the history beginning on page 205 of my "other crafts" thread.

There is no undercut on the lips. I believe that is a shadow enhanced by the angle of the shot. The molds destroyed by the fire were only two pieces so when I made one using an original mug it too is only two pieces.

Thanks LOL for remembering the facts. Cheers, Wendy

PS Joniece is following all that I make here on TC

PSS I just checked and the two mugs are still for sale at $5,000 that will make my projects a bargain

Hi Hale Tiki, no I don't want to lower the value of mugs in any ones collection. So I'm making bowls with this cast. I'm posting the step by steps of the manufacturing process on my "other crafts" thread. Thanks for your question, Wendy
