017 Tiki

Tiki is a Polynesian idol, in other words, a tiki

A tiki is a wooden or stone representation of a person.

In Māori mythology, "Tiki" was the name of the first man.

Tiki culture is a loose decorative style that was popular in the US in the 1950s and 60s.  This trend was punctuated by the acceptance of Hawaii as the 50th state in 1959. The exoticism associated with Hawaii brought about tiki idols, tiki mugs, and tiki bars. 

Tiki, the TDD, has three versions in G1, three versions in G3, and one version in G4.

He also has a little zood named Skippy.  He is a cute little squirrel. Aww.
