Is Kon-Tiki's tall, crotch-covering tiki by the aquarium the same one in the pic on 248? The one in BOT looks a little different in the eyes (it seems to be carved so as to look downwards) and it does not seem quite as detailed at the one at Kon-Tiki, but it might not have been done yet.

It's definately a Milan Guanko, but not that one. As you can see (in the one on the far left picture edge) he carved many similar styles.
By the way, I would look as distressed as these Tikis do too if I had this kind of ugly 80s paint job done to me. Painting Tikis like that is a crime!
