Since Easter is coming up, I guess now is a good time to post your Easter Island theme Lava figures.... 
Wooden KavaKava, Bosko plaster Moai, the rest are unmarked and the shortest one might be a game piece? 
Aloha, Freddie

Freddie you have such an extensive collection it is amazing. I enjoy all of this. Keep on showing us more please, there are so many in your collection that I have never seen before. I wish someone should make a book of all the Coco Joes around. I think it would be a great reference for tiki carvers and for the collectors as well.

Aloha Hiltiki, I'm glad that you are enjoying the lava figures. There always seems to be a different lava figure hear and there and this fuels the hunt for "More Lava"   Freddie,

I do not have any lava figures but I'll post some of my Easter Island vacation pictures instead:
Sorry that the are black and white, my camera battery died and I had to borrow a camera from some guy named "wouter" from the Netherlands.

Aloha Buzzy! Your Lava collection is flourishing and Da "Duke" looks extra happy in his new environment. Are your display cases buckling at the seams yet?? Are you chanting "Da Lava Club" mantra...."Must find more Lava, Must find more Lava", while you're hunting?? This seems to help move people aside while harvesting Freddie

Hola!
Cool "finds" Freddie! I feel bad for you though, getting all dirty digging around out there, looking for your lava pieces. Over here in California, we just hire guys to pick them off the vine for us instead. This year's crop is just about to come in to harvest, as a matter of fact:
My friend Miguelito sent me this picture from the central valley. I like finding them this way, as opposed to digging, because I hate to get dirt under my nails.
Do you ever dig up a piece in the wild which turns out to be just another lava rock, that happens to look similar to a cocojoes piece? I imagine that happens all the time out there. When I used to stay at my Grandparents cabin in the mountains, I never found a real Indian arrowhead, but I found a bunch of rocks that looked similar to arrowheads. It's probably the same way in Hawaii, but only with lava figurines instead right?
Must Find More Lava Buzzy Out!
