I just saw this myself and was about to post it. This looks awesome. I hope a rich TCer gets it and we can all come over someday and marvel at it.

THAT is amazing - a tiki dream come true!
If I didn't live on the East coast, I'd be seriously considering bidding.
I hope someone good gets it, too.

I got an email response from the artist last night. I mentioned that his site reminded me of Skinny Puppy's gothic/industrial vibe. He said he had done construction on some animatronic devices for a one off show for Skinny Puppy in Germany, 2000 complete with hydraulic lifts. Said He was suprised it even got through customs it looked so much like a bomb. After all the work, he calmed down by listening to exotica, and that is where the whole tiki thing started for him.

it looks quite small compared to the size of the bottles and it'll probably fall to pieces in a matter of days.
And thats what I'll keep saying to myself to stop from crying, coz i so want the animated tiki drummers.
