This is a mug shaped like the shrunken head of Gilligan (or "Little Buddy" as the Skipper always called him), from the television show Gilligan's Island (1964-1967).

The mug set was a limited edition of 150. The wait list started early on but they were officially released for sale in October (1st half) and December (2nd half) 2018. They did not start shipping out until the end of February 2019.

Pineapple King - Brown Stain - The Classics Collection - by Tank Standing Buffalo - for Tiki Farm
in 6 collections
This is a mug shaped like a Lono tiki with tall headdress that incorporates a pineapple. This version is in a brown stain and there is one in an amber stain as well.
From the Tiki Farm website:
"'The Pineapple King', the Hawaiian Tiki God Lono, is the inspiration here with a simplified version of its classic headdress but with one addition – the inclusion of a pineapple. The pineapple itself is the Hawaiian symbol for 'Welcome'. We thought that having a sculpted welcoming element included in our new Lono-inspired mug would simply add a bit of levity to the design as well as an added storyline allowing you to explain to your friends the welcoming nature of the pineapple in Hawaiian culture."
