Hi bigbro,

I'm one of the two guys behind the iTiki cases. I'm glad you like 'em, especially since it took so long to get the design just right. :)

Koa is a type of wood found primarily in Hawaii, making it very expensive. It has a lovely bright shine to it which is very distinctive. (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Taylor_Swift.jpg ) The orange was simply the closest we were willing to come to a wooden brown. (We really did think about making a proper wooden texture one, but it would have been very dull.)

As for what you can put in his mouth, I do have (and hope to post them online in a bit) some wallpapers you can put on your iPhone so that you can still see the back of his throat even when he's on your phone. When you get one of these cases on the 25th (or from the site later) and want a wallpaper, just email me or send me a message here.
