I agree with Tiki King wholeheartedly. I think it would be pretty difficult to 'Sell out' with Tiki as it's such a culture of buying and selling 'stuff' anyway. Perhaps if Shag appeared in a Coke ad or something....(actually that would be kind of funny).

I've mentioned before, though, that perhaps he should avoid some of the more lame marketing exercises, (the soap comes to mind) for his own sake. If the images become ubiquitous, they lose their power, and the interest will begin to drop off. Stick to the really cool stuff like the prints and mugs and he'll have an audience for life.
