Good afternoon everybody!

Thought I'd start a new thread for sharing recents buys or finds. I belong to another forum for collecting Tiki related things, another interest of mine, and they have a thread and it is one of my favorites. It's simply call Tiki Finds. But the main purpose is to share with everybody your latest finds.
I was thinking with all the neat stuff on ebay people might want to share their new treasures. But it's also super neat to see what we might find sifting through thrift shops and antique stores. In Tiki culture...they call it "The Wild"

I don't buy too many houses these days as I'm out of room, but I did just pick up a couple this week from ebay and they already made it to me. They aren't super rare houses or anything, but I really like them!
My two newest houses are the purple coco and the white coco with a Santa. I didn't have a house with a Santa, so I was super excited to get one! I got a decent deal, they were buyitnow auctions on ebay and I wrote the seller and he knock $5 of each house and combined the shipping for me...nice guy!
The red coco with the red peaks was one I got over the summer and the hacienda came up about three or four weeks ago. I considered that one a score as I got it for $6 and got a Priest figure(again one I didn't have), which I have removed to make castings of, thats why hes on there a little tilted. I will be reattaching him before I set my village up on Friday! I'm also replacing the window on the red one.

Brian, Thanks for sharing, especially the tipsy padre.

Good idea. Guess I will have to log in some of my recent finds. That red coconut takes the new Windoor you came up with! I just used it yesterday on a house I have had for some time and got around to completing it. Tom

Thanks Tom, I missed this comment. I still need to fix it up!! I sad that I have access to all the windows I would ever need and still haven't fixed them all up. Will get to it though!

Heres a pic of my latest finds...all ebay over the last several months since I posted.
A few fixer uppers.
Les was kind enough to send me the info I need to fix up the little church that's missing the steeple and bottom box part of the base, so I will be getting to it fairly soon I hope.
The little clock house will be the THIRD one of those I have fixed up. One is in my collection, one is in my Dad's..I may give this one to my brother so he has one.
The blue scoop house I was really happy to find, since it is part of "The Fair" set. I have 3 down...5 to go.
The purple church is in decent shape, still cant decide if Im going to sell it or keeper. I have so many churches in my village I think it would be silly if I had more than actually houses.... But it is in really great shape and I love the padre. .
The two haciendas are cool, I may or may not hang on to them, but its the only house I have with the little girl figure so I more than likely will.
My fav out of this group is the double windoor house which I just shared on the other thread. Once I get new windows in it, it will look like new. None of the colors have faded on this one over time.
