Buddha Head?

In several of the episodes (including Taking a Break from All Your Worries) in Season 3, a buddha head head on a stand is visible:

At least, I'm pretty sure it's a representation of Buddha. The hair area is a little unusual, though. Not the usual round knobules that you tend to see on these sort of figures. Once again I long for the ability to get high res screencaps. Could this possibly be Quan Yin (Kwan-Yin), the bodhisattva of compassion?

Update: This one is a puzzler. Could it be daikoku? Perhaps Ebisu - the Japanese god of fishing? I can't seem to find a match for this statue anywhere.
