- Joey Koala is the official mascot of the Egglepple portfolio. (see also Puwun).
- The toy was created by Lnq in 2005 shortly after celebrating a birthday.
- In real life, the 'joey' is Lnq's (QWERTY) keyboard (+trackpad combo)/toy cello used for interacting with the UUelcome (1997) gameframe, and other toccata purposes. Notice that it came about during the advent of portable mobile technology. lnq has always viewed Joey Koala to be an organic extension of himself, even though the character itself is androgynous.
- Legend has it that Joey Koala was borne out of desperation in a casino. Lnq has mentioned that - however imaginary - "besides a bar of soap", Joey was the only friend he had during those tough times (when he was starving, broke, and confused) and became the factor in his motivation to succeed.
- Joey Koala was first voiced by Lnq (2005- ).
- In gameplay, Joey Koala is considered the 'master' yot; capable of transforming into any and all other yots, if need be.
- A 'joey' is the term for a small marsupial, like a koala or kangaroo. So, "joey koala" literally means "small/baby koala".
- Joey Koala was a rehash of a non-playable character (npc) called 'Scotte Lemm', whom Lnq had in the earliest versions of his portfolio (Egglepple) to compensate for going solo. Scotte Lemm was lnq's imaginary sidekick as a play on Scottie Pippen who was Michael Jordan's on-court sidekick (delegated #2). lnq and Jordan both shaved their heads bald during that time.
- The first two letters of "Joey" (JO) stand for 'jukebox operator'.
