Welcome to Tiki Central, calypsojoe!
As you probably already know, King Konga is retired and sold out. He's quite sought after, and you would be very lucky to find one. I don't know where you could find one, but your post has so charmed me that I'll make it my personal quest to help you get it! If anyone here has a King Konga you're willing to part with, I'm willing to subsidize his trip overseas!

Just a thought...
Calypsojoe has a yen for King Konga. Wouldn't that make him Chinese?

I hope king conga gets his Tiki, I am very fond of Japanese Tikiphiles.
Here's an excerpt from a recent request for the BOT, written in charming Engrish:
>Hello, Mr.Sven
>
>Firstly,I really really knocked out for your Book of Tiki!
>So,I would like to sell your coolest book at my shop to curious chicks always can get.
>
>I'm look forward to nice touch from you.
Me too!

We've got 1 King Konga in our warehouse and he's mine!! We do though have another mold for King Konga's bro Head Banger (Konga like bandmember beatin' on skulls buried in the ground with big thigh bone like drum sticks... rythym section guy... should we launch him?).
Holden
King Konga loves you and so do I.
(total King Konga's produced... 294 and 15 were in resin with no pedestal... the remaining 279 were hand-stained plaster)

Yes Yes, launch away. I found out about you guys too late in the game. I own dozens of Tiki Farm mugs, but I don't have any home decor items yet. I would definitely get a headbanger.
