It's great to see a mug put to a face....who else has been immortalized by Tiki Farm in the past years ?

i really like the streamlined sculpt, but i wish the mug was more a reflection of what ben does. would have been cool to make it look like his whole head was made of bamboo poles, they could follow the contours of his head so that it looked like his face was pressing through a bamboo wall (like freddy krueger in nightmare on elm st.) I guess if you don't know or ever seen ben or know what his work is like , it's just an interesting stone faced mug.

Tipsy you hit the nail on the head, or the bamboo stake as it were, with your comment...

Grog got me to work up a Neck Charm for the Ben as well... and I took a bit different direction.
i got a sneak peek here:

Squid did a fantastic job creating a mug even a mother could love...Thor however was of a different mindset when he did his "Ben Mug"....

We're turning Ben into a pagan deity.
A thousand years from now, will there be Ben Bars and Ben Music and Ben Drinks, a Ben Central or Ben Time?

Yeah, I think there will be.

Mug me.

P.S. Oh yeah, Al, those heads look kind of like the tiki head on Thor Heyerdahl's flag. Was that a purposeful thing or the Spirit of Ben propelling himself through time and space? And why would a deity need Budweiser?

Seems like there has always been a "drink of the Gods", but unfortunately, this one prefers Pissweiser.

I'm a little confused here...Bamboo Ben buys a TC Ohana Hut then puts it for sale on TC to the highest bidder.

Now there are Bamboo Ben Mugs being announced for sale on TC?

Maybe I need to buy one then put it up for sale real fast on TC to the highest bidder?

I enjoy TC, but there are too many hypocrites out there. Anybody else pulls that stunt with the Ohana Hut and the whole community would come unglued...unless you are the right person...then it"s"good for you"

ps...I'm still dying to get my hands on an Ohana Hut and am jealous if you didn't notice.

Hey Ben...let's me trade one of your custom Bamboo Ben mugs for that silly old Ohana Hut

Aloha Jax,

I get nothing out of the Bamboo Ben Mug. It was done by Tiki Farm, Squid and Grog. If you want one, you have to contact them.

Also, I'm selling off all of my collection of tiki mugs here on TC first. Keep an eye out. There might be something else coming up that you'd like.

As soon as I sold the O-hut, I donated my 24 bucks to TC. I just don't have my star yet.

Hope this helps you with the confusion.

How are sells going on the Rev's mug?
We got Hypocrites on T.C. ...
