Are the eyes connected to the cord? And if so, how did you attach them?

The eyes are carnelian beads, and each one has its own cord braided on.

I was wondering what a tiki's skull might look like (in the vein of the link I posted above), if it were a real creature. Now I know - a cave troll! Hewey, I haven't seen the LOTR films again since they came out, but I think another viewing is in order now. I have been looking at a lot of movie monsters recently, so who knows what stuff is bubbling around in my subconscious?

Kinny - only top 10? I reckon it's worth a place in the final 5 for the eye action alone. Maybe I could do a Ruzic-style cannibal with pop-out skulls in its sockets to get into the top 3! Did you check out the crazy cartoon skeletons I posted above?

Sneaky, the word "kix" has brought back more repressed hair metal memories. I think I might have blown a fuse!
