The Warrior Idols are tribal figures featured in the Mystic Manor attraction.
History[]
Background[]
The warrior idols are tiki statues that represent Māori or Polynesian culture. These idols were one of the rare artifacts collected by Lord Henry Mystic during his journey at the isle of Tahiti[1] where the idols were displayed at the Tribal Arts section with the other tiki idols (such as totem poles, a large idol pouring lava, and a drummer) from Polynesia, Tonga, and Tahiti to give the room a Polynesian theme.
Role in Mystic Manor[]
The warrior idols are encountered when the vehicle passes by the Tribal Arts room where the idols are seen armed with spears, blowdarts, and arrows, as it appears that the idols became animated when Albert opened the Balinese Music Box. Upon entering the room, the first warrior idol the vehicles pass through wields two spears on both of its hands, preparing to attack Albert. Four more warrior idols come to life and face Albert, attacking him with darts, spears, and arrows, pinning him against a wall, which he reacts in fear. The next scene where Albert appears is where he managed to escape from the hostile tiki idols into the Chinese Salon room.
After Albert finally closes the music box, all the artifacts in the Mystic Manor are brought to their lifeless forms. This can give a clue that all the tiki idols in the Tribal Arts room were reverted to motionless forms.
Trivia[]
- As with many elements featured in the Tribal Arts room, the Warrior Idols pay reminiscence to elements from the "Enchanted Tiki Room" attraction (specifically tiki god depictions designed by Rolly Crump).
