My folks picked up this Mindimbit figure for me as a gift during their visit to Fiji a few years ago.
Here's a side view of a different piece I just got in a trade.
Here's both pieces together. Each is about 15" tall.
This board carving is 18" high.
That's all for now.

I picked this up today. It is about 4 feet tall and a good 40 pounds.
Any thoughts?

Hey Soccer...I'm not sure of the origin of your new acquisition? Is the coloring on it painted on with a paint? That would date it some. The opposing canines on the gator part look kind of Asian to me?...again, not sure...I do really "LIKE" him however...If you ever feel like working out a trade for this feller you let me know.
