My inspiration for the Hare Idol (see below) is this scene from The Thief of Bagdad (1940). Sabu climbs up the inside of the great statue, fights a giant spider and steals the all seeing ruby eye.
Although there are so many wonderful figures that are made to receive peoples sincerest spiritual devotion, I prefer this amped up, stylized, motif mad version.
It's a terrifically fun movie too.
