Vendor: Mr Hankey’s Toys

Construction

All Mr Hankey’s anal toys are made out of platinum silicone. This material is 100% body safe, highly resistant towards acid and heat and with the super-smooth surface leave little possibilities for bacteria to linger and are easy to clean. I usually put my toys in hot water with dish soap and sanitize them afterwards for good measure. This is a quick and easy way to get the toys clean and sterile again between partners at a play party. But you can also throw them in the dishwasher or autoclave them. In order to keep the surface in this condition, never use silicone based or hybrid lube with silicone toys because they will disintegrate the surface. Water and oil based lube are safe to be used with silicone toys. Being easy to clean is a great feat because silicone is slightly sticky. It thus attracts dust and flint extremely easily.

The Mr Hankey’s Toys Large & Horse Dildo

Mr Hankey’s Toys chose this material not only because it is easy to handle from a production point of view but also because it easily takes on coloration. Until two years ago, MHT was famous for the dual-coloring with a solid color core and a contrast color shell. This pours very extremely complex and sadly have been discontinued. They have been replaced with split colors (on the Horse Dildo) or marbles (on Largo) which are also interesting and beautiful.

The toys from Mr Hankey’s Toys come in two firmness degrees. The firmer is called “Medium” which is about the firmness of a fully hard penis. This makes texture more intense but also reduces the flexibility of the shaft. While I usually enjoy firmer toys, due to the nature of Largo and the Horse Dildo, I would not recommend getting either one in Medium but go for the softer “75%” firmness. Even when they mare the toys a little bit harder to control because they flop around more. Mr Hankey’s offer custom firmnesses for $15.95 which I have never tried. I would only recommend this if you have a large collection of anal toys already and can imagine how a toy will feel in a certain firmness! Because the larger the toy, the firmer it will feel! So be careful not to over- or in rare cases undershoot.

The Vac-U-Lock along with the Dust Problem every Siliconme Toy has

An add on I always recommend is the Vac-U-Lock hole for just $4.95. The system was originally designed to attach the toy to fuck machines but both of these toys are too big and too heavy to be attached to fuck machines. But in the past years a number of nifty accessories came out for this kind of system: Handles, Strap-On harnesses, suction cups and double-dildo connectors. Because of this I highly recommend adding this inexpensive feature to your toy. There are just too many useful scenarios along the way to go cheap on this one.

The Texture on Largo’s Shaft

Playing with the Largo & Horse Dildo

Both toys have very telling names. Largo is large. Very large! With almost 410mm of insertable length and a diameter of 70mm it is made for serious depth player.

The glans has a nice smooth dome shape. It could have taper a little bit more and get more cone-shaped to open up the two sphincters more easily and gradually. The glans rim is slightly slated and there is a considerable drop of about 6mm which leads to a nice popping in sensation – especially beyond the second sphincter.

The shaft is heavily textured with many thick and high-rising veins. Below the glans there is a small cluster of ridges of cut foreskin. There is a slight, almost unnoticeable ventral groove. Due to the texture, riding Largo is a very stimulating experience. There is not increase of diameter so once the hole has relaxed and got accustomed to the size, you can focus on the texture which will massage both sphincters. Especially when going deep, the sensitive colon walls are subjected to an interesting and intense massage. This kind of sensation are rarely found because most thick depth toys are just smooth or have a big – flared – glans (see below) on which the sensations are focused so Largo offers something truly unique. Every kind of stimulation causes tensing up so riding Largo deeply HARD can be a challenge due to the colon trying to push him out instead of letting him in deeper. For really experienced players who use excessive amounts of lube and play with a partner, turning Largo is very hot experience. But be very careful when doing it! Parts of the toys can stick to the colon wall when drying up so turning him can cause heavy injuries!

Largo’s Tapering Glans

As you see and as I wrote in the beginning: Largo is not a toy for novices who just start out with depth play but for experienced players. If you can take Largo, you can take a medium fist DEEP because there is little size difference. Theoretically you can order Largo in Medium firmness but I would strongly advise against! Through the large diameter even the 75% firmness is borderline firm for going around the bends and kinks of the colon. Only one really skilled and trained testee could take my 75% firm Largo completely. Large is one of the few toys where getting a custom firmness – or rather softness – can increase the fun you have with the toy. Though keep in mind: The softer the toy, the harder to handle.

Some might just be intrigued by Largo’s texture, don’t care if they can take him completely and thus order him in Medium to make the texture more noticeable. Coincidentally a friend of a friend has Largo in Medium. It is a club! He is very hard to ride because it stands so tall and too heavy for fucking machines. If you like texture I would rather recommend the Lampwick in Medium instead of Largo. An important thing to consider is that both in Medium and 75% Firmness Largo will not stand up straight but always tips over making him a big hard to ride.

The Horse Dildi’s Blunt Glans

I rarely have ever encountered a so bluntly named toy as the Horse Dildo. It is just what is says: An anatomically more or less correct horse dick – at least according to veterinarian friend of mine.

Unlike on their Centaur toy, the glans is quite flat and only lightly domed. The glans rim is textured with bumps around. These bumps are almost the only added girth to the shaft so this toy is unflared.

Like Largo the shaft is column-like straight – except the horse-characteristically medial ring 2/3 down the shaft. This ring is only a slight ridge around the shaft so more of a depth indicator than a stimulating feature. The entire shaft is textured with very thin lateral ridges giving the toy a nice but not too intense texture.

The Horse’s Balls Float About 10mm Above the Ground

The base features two massive, anatomically correct balls. They give the top a good grip to hold onto and increase the immersion. But their lowest point is about the bottom of the shaft’s base. This makes the toy tip over easily because the big glans makes it already head-heavy. The Horse Dildo would have been easier to ride and control if the balls would have added to the base’s footprint.

Like Largo the Horse Dildo is not for novices. Event the smallest size aptly called “large” has a glans diameter of 72mm. Getting your anus to open up to an almost flat 72mm diameter disk is something that takes a lot of training. Taking the toy deep due to the long insertable length is an art. Once inside the shallow texture gently massages the anus instead of heavily stimulating it. So my verdict it, is you ever wanted to take a dildo that comes close to nature’s original both shape- and size-wise, the Horse Dildo is one of the smaller entries into this realm. But still a challenging one.

The Small Size Difference between the Glans and Column Shaft

Again I would not recommend getting this toy in Medium firmness. You need the softness of 75% for the sphincter to open up. Everything else is almost madness.

Where to buy?

Mr Hankey’s sells their toys directly through their website. This is the best way to get them when you want to customize them even further. They also run promotions on a regular basis (if you register for their newsletter they have an individual birthday promotion for example) so check their page regular to snatch a bargain. Being one size only Largo costs $189.95 plus customization while the Horse Dildo starts at $159.95. Custom solid colors costs $29.95, a marble $39.95, custom firmness $15.95.

Vendor: Organotoy

Just in case you are wondering why you find this review in the Impact Toy category: Being modeled after a baseball bat, you can of course use it to hit people. I talk about the BaseMyBat as an impact toy in the second part of the play section.

Construction

In the whole world European anal toys Organotoy has a very special place: Founded 15 years ago it was the first European toy maker to only use platinum silicone. Today they are one of the few companies only using ISO 10993-10 compliant raw materials and are compliant with the ISO “sex toy” standard 3533 2021. This shows their dedication to product safety and quality.

The Organotoy BaseMyBat

Of course their platinum silicone has all the properties anal players love: Hypoallergenic and 100% body-safe, easy to clean with warm dish-soap water, easy to sanitize afterwards using spray-on sanitizer or even autoclaving and sliding in easily due to the super-smooth surface. Just please do not use silicone lube for this toy. The silicone oil inside the lube will over time attack the silicone and make the surface sticky.

As standard Organotoy “only” offers 20 colors. But they will mix any others that are not part of the standard range. If you want make the toy even more yours a former Hollywood FX artists works there and does custom airbrushes according to your design (like the biohazard sign on the first ever Sit-Plug  which I gifted to my BF) or for delicate colorings (my Rainbow Ripley was done this way). So in theory you could get your favorite baseball team’s logo in your toy and fuck yourself with it.

Another great customization feature is that you can virtually order any firmness between Shore 00-20 (almost too soft to play) up to feels-like-metal Shore A30. They have the common firmnesses in stock but will mix others for you. So if you like it extremely soft or need it extremely hard (literally) – especially if you want to use the bat for impact play – Organotoy is one of the few manufacturers who makes toys in the extreme ends of the Shore scale.

The BaseMyBall has the shape of a baseball bat used for sports. It is 490mm long; 250mm barrel and 230mm grip. The barrel has a diameter of 53mm. This means this is not a full size baseball bat. It is closer to a one-hand training bat than a full size Louisville Slugger and considerably  thinner…

The Dull Tip of the BaseMyBat

Playing with BaseMyBall

… which is good for depth play. This toy is made for everybody who has the fantasy of being fucked with a baseball bat yet feared the unforgivingness of aluminum or even wood (splinters in the nether regions anyone?). Due to the grip, the BaseMyBall is quite easy to handle even with somewhat lubey fingers. In softer firmnesses this even applies when you want to stuff your ass with it. If you go for a higher firmness degree (Shore A10 and up) there is too much leverage.

The toy itself is a bit anti-climactic. It is just a smooth barrel. So you get the feeling of is sliding in an out but not more. I could see great potential for this toy if Organotoy turned it into a club or mace with bumps and ridges and grooves added to the barrel and shortened the grip a little bit.

The Handle with a little Pummel for better Grip

Taking the toy requires pre-stretching because the tip is flat with a little domed rim. There is nothing to nicely make open up. This especially accounts for your second hole! The bat is not for novices! But if you have a bit if experience, it is a nice to toy to “straighten” the colon out.

Being modeled after a baseball bat, there is of course the question: How does it perform as an impact toy? Well, that depends.

For spanking it does not really work because of the material. Silicone is simply too soft and the barrel to heavy. Mine was made in Shore A20 and still the barrel flops around then trying swing the top at the impact area. When you grab is right below the barrel and swing it like a club, the grip bounces and swings causing unintended impacts. They are not intense but irritating for the sub because they are chaotic. Regardless how controlled and rhythmic you hit him with the barrel the grip flops around unevenly. Maybe a split firmness of A30 until the beginning of the barrel and an A10 or A20 for barrel could fix that.

Illustration just how much even Shore A20 bends

Baseball bats are also often used for CBT. They are just the perfect graphic ball busting tool for rough play. But again hitting somebody between the legs does not work due to the material. For what the BaseMyBall is great for is strapping your sub to the floor, legs apart and swing the barrel against his nuts. Due to the softness the bat swings easily with a lot of momentum bruising the balls nicely.

Where to buy?

Organotoy recently started a limited wholesale for their toys though I am not sure if that includes the BaseMyBalls. Especially if you want to customize the colors or want it airbrushed, ordering directly from Organotoy is the way to go. The BaseMyBall costs 99.96€ plus customization add-ons.

The Neotori Andaro XL

Vendor: Neotori

Construction

Neotori is famous for their lavish, pearlescent UV-reactive color marbles which patterns often incorporate tones of precious metals like gold, silver or copper. Along with Glow in the Dark or solid ones you can choose 52 colors which can be mixed in double or triple marbles. No fades or anything else, just marbles. And Neotori excels every other manufacturer in those.  While with other manufacturer you sometimes have large areas in only one color, Neotori’s marbles are vivid and lively.

The Vac-u-Lock Hole in the Base

These beautiful patterns are only possible with platinum silicone because this material takes on color particles easily and mixes beautifully. Another property is that the material is 100% body safe and super-smooth. This means, the toy slides into you very easily and keeps bacteria and other nasty things from linger. It also makes the toy easy to clean: Wash or better soak in warm dish-soap water, rinse, spray with sanitizer and you are ready to go. This makes silicone the material of choice for all group setting players who need to clean and sanitize toys quickly. What some consider a disadvantage of silicone toys it that you must not use silicone lube with. The silicone oil inside the lube will disintegrate the toy over time so just stick to water- or oil-based lube.

Neotori offers their toys in two firmness degrees a quite soft Shore A00 called “Standard” and a form Shore A8. When you order toys in their “Standard” firmness, especially a longer one like the Andaro I am reviewing toy, be aware that they will not stand up but collapse easily! Especially so soft toys needs a bit more care. Store them without pressure otherwise they might get creases. If you are just starting out with anal play, softer the toys might be for you because softer toys are harder to handle yet ceteris paribus the easier to take. Each toy comes with a storage bag to protect it. But especially with soft toys don’t stack too many bags on top of each other 😉

Andaro’s Base

Handling can be improved when adding a Vac-u-Lock hole. There is a plethora of accessories like suction cups or handles for this hole which makes playing with toys easier.  It is also a convenient spot to place a finger to guide the toy when using it as a top. And of course, it is the most common standard for attaching a dildo to a fucking machine.

Playing with Andaro

As you can see in the drawing and flavor text on Neotori’s website Andaro is a horse-dong inspired toy. Like on an equine penis the glans is quite flat with a shallow dome in the middle. Around the side and the front runs a thick glans-rim bulge. Despite being flat, Andaro is far from flared yet to take him you need to pre-stretch. There is little to coax the sphincter to open up gradually.

A Dull but still Unflared Equine Glas

The shaft has an interesting texture: On the back of the glans two ridges converge chevron-like, “splitting” the top of the shallow ventral groove which interestingly gets wider and deeper down the shaft. This is mirrored on top of the shaft with two sallow ridges converging towards a shallow ventral (?) grove. Below the glans two bumps sit on the sides of the shaft in an almost perfect 45° angle.

The second half of the shaft is “textured” with a pair of very shallow bumps on the side. You almost cannot see those because they are so subtle. Unlike other equine toys Andaro does not have a medial ring. Instead there is a ring around the shaft just above the base. The top is quite shallow, the height and thickness is about the same as the bumps below the glans so I would not call it a knot.

Below this ring there is a short shaft for resting before flat ridges just above the base mark the end of the usable length. Two thick but not overly massive balls form the base giving the toy a good stand while still being easy to handle.

Andaro’s Ventral Grove

The play sensation with Andaro varies quite a bit depending on if you are riding him or getting your hole stuffed by a top. As already said, taking Andaro takes pre-stretching. The bulges around the glans rim and below are perfect for massaging the sensitive anus. If you are skilled and nimble you can lock your prostate below the glans rim and between the converging ridges for milking and stimulation. The parallel bumps increase the shaft rigidity where they are located creating areas where the shaft will bend more easily. This makes it easier to handle when taking the toy deep.

Taking it beyond your second sphincter is only for experienced depth players because yet again, that dull glans will not help with opening up this sensitive area easily. Once penetrated the intense stimulation does not stop because like the on the anus the bumps will “torment” the entrance to your colon. This might be the reason why there is now medial ring so you can focus on relaxing and penetrating the second sphincter.

When you take Andaro REALLY deep, it gets really intense: In addition to the bumps stimulating the second sphincter, the bump around the bottom stretches your anus strong and hard! Like with the glans, the flat and dull top does not open up the anus gently. If you like hard, intense play, this is double stimulation will make you leak.

The Big, Slated Bumps below the Glans

Of course you get all these sensation when a top stuffs you. But unlike when riding the toys, he can twist it inside you. This is especially important when targeting either the anus or second sphincter with the slated bumps below the glans. Since they converge towards the middle, one bump is getting pushed through the sphincter while the other is pulled out during one turn. This is a unique, intense sensation what I have never felt before!

Where to buy?

Neotori only sells their toys on their website. They usually have a few ready-made toys you can order right away. But their core business is to sell individualized toy so they are really yours.

Vendor: Jack O’Toy

Back from vacation hiatus and sick leave – right into the Pride season. This means almost every weekend I will be on the go, demonstrating for LGBTQ+ rights. So not sure if I will be able to keep the one review per week schedule. But enough of gazing into a crystal ball and off to France…

Jack O’Toy’s Walton & Stony

Construction

Jack O’Toy is the next manufacturer in this small (and completely incomplete!) stroll through Europe’s anal toy manufacturer. Like all manufacturer in this special their toys are made out of pure platinum silicone. The most important feat of this material is that it is 100% body safe unlike PVC/ vinyl/ “real touch” or whatever clever name it is given or rubber. It also has advantageous playwise. The surface is super smooth so there is less friction when going in. It also keeps bacteria from lingering and easy to clean, making it a perfect material for group play when the toy needs to be cleaned quickly between partners. Simply wash with warm dish soap water (the warmer the better), rinse, dry and spray sanitizer on it. If you want to be extra sure, you can autoclave platinum silicone toys too. However a little pinch is that such toys must only be used with water- or oil-based lubes. The silicone oil inside silicone lube will disintegrate the toy over time and makes the surface sticky. Regardless if you have exposed your toy to platinum silicone or kept it in best shape, silicone is always a bit sticky. So it will attract flint and dust quite easily.

The Vac-U-Lock Hole on Stony’s Bottom

When it comes to customization, Jack O’Toy offers a wide. Firmness-wise you have three choices from soft (Shore A2) over medium (Shore A5) to firm (Shore A10) which is a more traditional, Bag Dragon-like firmness scale (their firm is Shore A8) and not like other manufacturer which lean to the softer side. The color range features 38 colors from standards solids over UV reactive to sparkling ones. These colors can be put into several patterns from solid over splits to marbles. For the colors of my two toys Jack O’Toy employed a technique previously done also by Mr Hankey’s Toys: Having a monochrome outer layer of varying thickness over a monochrome core. The varying thickness creates different hues and a very subtle marble pattern. It a very unique, interesting and sophisticated look! Sadly Mr Hankey’s Toys does not do this technique anymore because it is very difficult and time consuming. So I am very happy that Jack O’Toy offers it. If you are a collector and don’t have a toy in this technique, get one toy from France!

The Bumps texturing Stony’s Body

You can order the toys with a Vac-U-Lock hole. If you know my reviews, you know, that I strongly recommend getting it! If is a good way to guide a toy when you put a finger into it while fucking you bottom. There are also so many accessories like handles or suction cups for it making it a very universal tool. Speaking of suction cup: Jack O’Toys offer suck on suction cups made out of silicone. They look interesting but I had not have a chance to play with them. If you have experience, send me an e-mail!

One of the most frequent questions I get about new toy manufacturer is their manufacturing quality. Jack O’Toy’s toys are very well made. The color distribution is very good, even small details are finely wrought, the surface is flawless with no burst bubbles and there are no rough areas or overly frayed edges at the bottom. It lies in the nature of the material to create rough edges at the bottom. They can be evened out like for example Bad Dragon does. However since you do not see them, they do not impair the functionality of the toy and if they are within limits, I am giving them a pass. If they annoy you, you can deburr silicone toys with a sharp knife.

The Canine Inspired Glans of Walton

This manufacturing quality actually surprised me: Jack O’Toy’s specialty are heavily textured toys which are a pain in the ass to get out of the pouring form. This process can easily tarnish a toy. But as I wrote they are flawless, even in a firm material like the Shore A10 mine are made out of. Kudos for that!

This leads a bit to the big elephant in the middle of the room: His toys are relatively small. My two toys are “large” and compared to almost every other manufacturer they are medium sized at best (if you shop at size queen manufacturer they might even qualify as small). On the one hand it is great for novices or people who do not want to outstretch their orifices too much to have access to heavily textured toys. But before you order, check the size chart thoroughly. Otherwise you might be disappointed.

The Crystal Column at the Back of Stony’s Shaft

For the time being Jack O’Toy does not plan to make (X)XL toys – which I can understand. It must be impossible to get these toys out of the shape. But if you are (dark) red hanky flagging guy, these toys might sadly be a tad bit small for you.

Playing with Stony & Walton

Stony starts out like a realistic dildo. He has a nicely tapering, big glans without a glans drop. From the two very subtle bulges below the top of the glans I assume he is an uncut guy. The shaft is a straight column. So much for a realistic dick.

But the shaft is textured with a cluster of geode shapes bumps. The is a line of for running down the ventral grove, the others are wildly scattered over the shaft. To underline the theme of being a stone creature shallow cracks run over the shaft. But you will not feel these amid the intense stimulation of the bumps.

At the bottom of the top a cluster of crystal pillars is growing out of the base. At the front two massive balls which are lightly textured with bumps and cracks make for a sturdy stand even when riding the toy hard.

Stony’s Nicely Tapering Glans

Riding Stony vigorously requires a good stretch and much relaxation because the texture is intense. Because of the chaotic array, there is no “easy” angle to take it. Everywhere is intense stimulation which is you are into this kind of thing, makes Stony a great toy. But texture also creates friction and tension of the anus so he is not an easy toy to take. However, there are two sweet spots: For the prostate owner, ride the ridges of the ventral grove for an almost saw like stimulation. For the front hole owner, according to my FtM testees the crystal columns are good for clitoris stimulation. Regardless if stuffing Stony into your front or rear hole, twisting him and letting the bumps stimulation the sensitive mucosa is horny fun!

Walton on the other hand plays a different game. His glans is very dull with a little tip towards the bottom – like glanses of canines are. It is bulgey which creates quite the glans drop. This shaft is barrel shaped and textured with many veins.

Walton’s Barrel Shaft and MASSIVE Knot

Being barrel shaped it tapers at the bottom again above the THICK knot. This leads to a knot-to-shaft-above-knot ration of an insane 1:1.9. As I wrote, size-wise Walton’s shaft is not that big. But that knot? Holy fuck! It can compete with grown-up knots from other manufacturer, especially considering the ration relevant for the knotting! If you are a novice and want an intense knotting despite not being quite there yet, get Walton in soft and try to work him in.

Like all canine toys Walton has a short straight neck for resting and enjoying the feeling of a thick knot locked inside oneself. Though I would not recommend to enjoy this feeling for too long because then you hole might tense up again. The this neck is even small leading to an absurd knot-to-neck ratio if 1:2.1!

Walton’s Thin Base. As you can see the shaft leans backwards.

The base is quite thin. As a counterpoint there are two massive, untextured balls. But still, the base is too unstury for riding Walton, especially when you struggle to take the knot. My recommendation is to buy a suction cup and back against the wall if you still learn to take Walton easily.

Where to buy?

Since all Jack O’Toy toys are custom made, you can only order them from their website. They have stock drops on a regular basis and run promotion on ready made toys. So follow their Twitter to keep up.

Blackfang Labs Hector & Wairu

Vendor: Blackfang Labs

Last week’s toys came from Berlin in the Eastern part of Germany, this week these two handsome brutes are coming from Düsseldorf which is in the far West of Germany.

Construction

Like all toys in this Anal Toy Special the dildos by Blackfang Labs are made out of pure platinum silicone. This means they are not only a 100% body safe unlike cheaper materials like PVC or rubber. Their surface is also super smooth which keeps bacteria from lingering and makes insertion and cleaning easy. Simply wash with hot dish soap water, rinse, dry, spray a sanitizer on it and you are ready to go again. This makes platinum silicone toys perfect for orgies. They are quick and easy to clean between partners. In order to preserve these properties they must not be used with silicone lube because the silicone oil will disintegrate the surface and make it sticky! Water or oil-based lubes are fine. So you can infuse your water-based lube with essential oils if desired.

The Cavernous Bodies and Ventral Groove Texturing Hector’s Short Shaft

When silicone toys started to become a major thing some 10 years ago the softer end of the spectrum was the most popular one. Blackfang Labs sticks to this trend with their soft being Shore 00-30 (a bit softer than Topped Toys for example), medium being Shore 00-40 and firm Shore 00-50 which is still relatively soft.

What set Blackfang Labs toys apart from other silicone toys is the coloring. DarkRat, the artist behind the toys has an extraordinary eye for beautiful fades. He combines bold colors in striking contrasts or layers soft tones in subtle fades creating some of the most amazing silicone sculptures out there. When I see his drops in Twitter , I am sometimes tempted to buy a toys just because the colors so vividly and seducing. Another specialty are multi-color marbles. They are more complicated than they might appear. Colored silicone easily blends creating mushy messes. In Kai’s marbles you can really see the different colors dancing around each other like in an abstract expressionist painting. It’s like K.O. Götz and Jackson Pollock started to collaborate on anal toys.

Wairu’s BIG Suctionc Cup

Just like the coloring the product quality is spotless! The surface is even without popped bubbles, rough areas or overly frayed edges at the bottom. Since after last week’s review I have gotten a couple messages about these frayed edges: It lies in the nature of the material to create rough edges at the bottom. They can be evened out like for example Bad Dragon does. However since you do not see them, they do not impair the functionality of the toy and if they are within limits, I am giving them a pass. If they annoy you, you can deburr silicone toys with a sharp knife.

For most of their toys, Blackfang Labs offers the option of a suction cup. Their suction cup is deep and taking up the entire base for a strong and secure suction. This is an option you should always order then possible. If riding a toy sitting on the floor for maximum sphincter and colon relaxation it keeps the toy from sliding away. If you prefer a more “natural” knotting position in doggy style, you can stick it to your shower wall without falling off or sliding down.

Hector’s Pointy Glans

Blackfang Labs offers two toys or rather tools which I have not ever played with but which are sounding interesting: First a double-sided suction cup to mount suction-cupless toys to a flat surface. This is a brilliant idea for toys which do not have this nifty feature. It is likely I might actually recommend this feature over a vac-u-lock suction cup because having a silicone foot will feel more organic than a firm plastic one. Also, it looks like the double-sided suction cup can bend a bit so it might adjusts more easily to your body movement. However, the cup has a diameter of 57mm so you must at least have base diameter of I guess 62mm for it to securely attach to making it feasible only for larger toys. Also it would be interesting to see how the different firmness degrees effect the suction and stability performance. The other vac-u-lock replacing accessory is a grip with a suction cup attached to it. This cup has a little bit smaller diameter at 54mm so will go with more toys. But even at Shore 00-50 I am not sure how usable or rather wobbly the grip will be. Yet, at 30€ each for a two-tone toy they are not too expensive. Maybe in the future I will take a look at them in another review.

Hector’s MASSIVE Knot

Playing with Hectore & Wairu

As the name might imply – at least for Germans – Hector is inspired by canine gentiles.  A husky to be precise. He starts out with a pointy tip of a bulgy circle on top of a tapering stump. The shaft is textured with two lateral bulging cavernous bodies which are very lightly textured with veins. On the bottom runs a faint ventral groove and there is a little more bulgy groove on the top. The shaft slightly tapers towards the knot.

The Intense Texture on Hector’s Long Neck

The knot is really extreme on Hector! While on other canine of vulpes inspired toys you have two or three spheres bulging out of the shaft, on Hector it is an almost perfect flattish bulge all around the body. Only at the top there is a small recess and there are two small ones next to the thick bulge below the ventral groove. While this does not sound a lot different, it changes the knotting dramatically. With spherical knots the individual spheres can be “pushed” to a side which fits the sphincter better. Also, the knot has an orientation; positioning it in line of the sphincter makes the entry more easily. With Hector is either goes in this way or is does not! This is little to coax the anus to open up. This led to many play partners underestimating Hector! In the profile the glans and body promise they will gradually open up the hole and the knot does not look more flattish than other knots. But it feels SO much more intense.

Wairu’s Textured Glans and Body

The neck below the knot is short but long enough for the anus to comfortably close around it. The little leverage in combination with the massive, dull knot means that it easily locks in place. The neck is textured with a cluster of thick grooves so there is an intense stimulation when twisting it. This is if your bottom can focus on this body part because the pressure of the thick knot pressing against the prostate if overwhelming.

The base is thick and sturdy so you don’t accidently swallow it when your hole already opened up to take the now.

The Smaller Pre-Knot and BIG Knot of Wairu

In comparison to Hector Wairu would be best described as “Two households, both alike in dignity”. He starts out with a tiny tapering glans. The glans rim is textured with pointy bumps. The shaft itself is not even half of the entire insertable length and its intersection is almost like a rounded square! On the bottom corner instead of a ventral groove there is line of pointy bumps. The sides and back are textured with scale-like ridges which have an pointy apex at the top. Yes, the body gradually tapers but through the texture it rather irritates the sphincter and causes it to tense up instead of gradually preparing it for the knot.

Wairu hast two of those. The first if what I call the pre-knot. It is a lot like Hector’s knot, a bulge around the shaft with only a small recess at the bottom. Its flatness’ effect is intensified by shallow yet noticeable ridges on the side which makes the knotting more intense.

The Neck of Wairu is less Textured than Hector’s

The knot itself is rather traditional with two big rounded spheres on the side, a medium one on top and a big recess at the bottom. So the anus can nicely squeeze the knot where it has to go. But the shaft-to-knot ratio is an absurd 1:1.7! Yes, bouncing on the pre-knot (1:1.4) helps a bit but still! The knot is texture with a few subtle veins for good measure but I doubt you will feel them in the intense knotting sensation.

The neck below has ridges like Hector yet fewer and shallower ones. Also, the neck is quite short. This in combination with the HUGE base create a lot of leverage, making it almost impossible to lock the knot inside the anus for extended periods of time.

Vendor: Naughty Fox

Ever since I started reviewing silicone anal toys, I have gotten reader questions from Europeans asking for toy makers closer to home. Ordering from the big American players adds high shipping and custom charges. Since your word is almost always my command, Naughty Fox kicks-off a little stroll through EU manufacturer which by no means is intended to be exhaustive.

Naughty Fox’s Fuxi, Aero & Santos

Construction

For years all anal toys I have reviewed on ToyTorture.com have been made out of platinum silicone – or aircraft grade aluminum but that is a different electrifying story. And Naughty Fox fits this premise perfectly. Platinum silicone is the material to get for insertables because it is a 100% body safe – unlike PVC and vinyl. It’s super-smooth surface makes it easy to take and to clean. Simply wash with hot dish soap water, rinse, dry, spray a sanitizer on it and you are ready to go again. This makes platinum silicone toys perfect for orgies. They are quick and easy to clean between partners. A minor disadvantage of silicone is that it must not be used with silicone lube. The silicone oil inside the lube destroys the material. So stick to water- or oil-based lube otherwise the toy surface will get sticky. Silicone has a base stickiness which means it attracts dust like nothing else. That’s for these toys I try a wet look to present them as flit free as possible.

The Vac-U-Lock Hole in Aero’s Base

What makes platinum silicone a joy to work with it that it comes in a wide range of firmness degrees. Naughty Fox sticks to the softer side of the range even with their firm toys. On some toys and sizes they offer split firmnesses, meaning that the base is firmer than the body. If possible I recommend getting the firmer base because it makes riding the toy so much easier. Another great property of silicone is that it takes on colors very easily. You can choose from a range of 24 colors which you can get either in solid, split, swirls or marble pattern.

Other customization options are a Vac-U-Lock hole or a suction cup. Sadly the two options are exclusive. Personally I lean towards the Vac-U-Lock hole. It allows you to mount the toy to a fucking machine, the top can guide the toy more easily but putting a finger inside the hole and there is a ton of different accessories for it – from handles to suction cups. If you primarily want to ride the toy, backing against a wall in doggy position, the suction cup is a better choice.

Minimal Color Bleeding on Aero’s Base

The build quality is en par with the big, established manufacturer: The surface is smooth, no popped bubbles, overly uneven or fraying edges, minimal color bleeding. So from a technical point of view, I can recommend these toys. But how do the perform in the ass?

Playing with Fuxi, Aero & Santos

Let’s start with the looking at the toy I have gotten the most reader questions about, Santos. What is it lately with the big interest in equine dildos?! Are horses the new dogs?

Obviously Santos is a horse dildo of the flared variety. This means that his glans is bloated and expended leading to a wide and dullish tip. Compared to other flared dildos Santos’ glans tapers a little bit and quite shallow. It is far from gradually opening up the anus but better than nothing. The glans rim is textured with small bumps, ideal for turning inside the anus to stimulate this nerve-ending rich body area.

Santos MASSIVE Flared Glans

Below the rim the glans tapers towards the shaft. Only here you can see how MASSIVE the flare is; the flare-to-shaft ratio is a massive 1.5:1! Relatively close to the glans the medial ring is already located. This had the advantage that if you are not a DEEP & WIDE hole, you can still enjoy the plopping the anus makes when bounding on the medial ring. The rest of the shaft is only lightly textured with three lateral veins and a ventral groove. Two thirds down the shaft is yet another cluster of three thin perpendicular ridges. They are perfect for massaging the anus while the flare is locked deep inside. Even at the smaller sizes, this is a pleasure only few will be able to enjoy. The medium already has glans dimensions of 7.5×5.5cm. Taking such a dully tipped toy deep is a huge challenge. So consider the sizing twice when ordering Santos. Yet, with L and XL size, you are approaching life size territory. Equine toy experience friends told me that the Santos comes close to lifecast toys. If this is your thing and you want to experience the REAL struggle of not being able to take a horse dick deep, Santos is the toy to get. Speaking of the real deal: The base is formed by two thick and voluminous stallion testicles for a relatively firm stand.

Santos‘ Medial Ring On the Left

It is hard for me to give a firmness recommendation. Being a flared toy, Santos is extremely head-heavy. In the softer end of the spectrum he cannot stand up and flops around. The firmer he gets, the easier to control. But I cannot imagine taking the glans passed the second sphincter in firm. So the trade off is between usability and takeability. While my Santos has a Vac-U-Lock hole, especially when you want to ride him on your own, I strongly recommend getting the suction cup. It adds a bit of stability and enhances handling.

So again, a final warning: If you are a true, literal hole and want the real horse deal, get Santos. But maybe err on the side of caution size-wise.

Fuxi’s Particular Glans

Fuxi is a similar story yet on a completely different level. The glans is bulgey ring around the tip of the shaft with a little cusp standing out (if you are a biologist and can tell me the right terms, please write to me). While the cusp helps aiming and anchoring the toy inside the anus, the dull and bulgey “glans” makes entry not really difficult but different. There is a slight, stimulating “plop” when the dildo finally enters.

The body consist out of four big oval and long-drawn bulges. Two very subtle veins run over them. These cavernous bodies have their apex on quarter down the insertable length. Then they taper again to the glans diameter above the knot.

Fuxi’s Demanding Knot

The knot is HARD! The spheres attached to the body are flattish so they do not gradually open up the anus but coerce it open. Furthermore the Shaft-to-knot ratio is 1.5:1 (seeing a theme here)  but the shaft right above knot-to-knot ratio is an absurd2.5:1! If you do not want your hole to get completely ravished the advice “Ride the shaft and rest a bit above the knot before knotting.” is brutal! Allowing your hole to tense up again will make the experience so much more eye-popping.

The advantage of the brutal knot it that once it fits it sits. The knot locks well into the hole and needs some force (and relaxation) to come out again. Especially when the lube dries up and the hole tightens again, this leads to an intense experience. The shaft below the knot is about one fifth of the entire insertable length. So Fuxi can comfortably stay inside for extended periods of time – if it wasn’t for the thick, round and sturdy base.

Fuxi’s Textured Shaft

It is hard to reach a verdict regarding Fuxi. Through the complex shape, it has much to offer for the eager novice. Twisting the shaft inside the hole is an interesting experience, the plop going in a nice sensation but not so challenging that it is gate keeping. Also, especially in soft firmness the four cavernous bodies will compress easily enough to go in swiftly and give a nice feeling of expansion and fullness once inside. But the knot is most definitively not for novices! It is one the top end of intense knotting! So it is a toy to grow on which will take time to reveal his full potential to a novice. For experience players who like it hard and textured, go for Fuxi! It is a great addition when you are from the school of hard knots and texture.

Finally, Aero. It is rare that I misjudge a toy from the pictures and order it in the wrong configuration. But with Aero this is the case so let me tell you about my hybris…

Aero’s Tapering Glans

Aero starts out with a nicely tapering, pointy and slightly dullish glans which opens up the anus. There is a prominent yet rounded glans drop for a nice anus stimulation. The body has a roughly octagonal shape and tapers towards the bottom. It is textured with scales that form little pointy tips on each corner. What sets Aero apart from every other scale textured toy I have encountered are that the edges are not as rounded as on other toys but as straight as it goes on silicone toys.

Being a texture junkie, I confidently ordered the Aero in firm because the firmer, the more the texture is felt. But Aero’s texture is so much more intense, especially because it is focused on the corners that riding him is a challenge and not for every day. At least when you buy him in firm! In soft he is probably a nice wavey massaging and the focused sensations on the tips will be delightful when turning him while fucking a hole. But unless you are an absolute anal masochist, I would not recommend getting him in firm!

Vendor: Bad Dragon

Your thirst for new Bad Dragon Reviews never seems to stop – regardless how many of their toys I test. But I can understand you, riding their toys is very hot. Through your reader questions you pressure me to explore awesome toys – like Vector – I would have never considered. So not sure if I should call it “Time Honored Tradition” or “Broken Record” but here it is, the (semi?)annual Bad Dragon review.

Bad Dragon’s Bishop, Vector & Spritz

Construction

The most important thing about all Bad Dragon insertables (and to also fuckables) is that they are only made out of pure platinum silicone. Bad Dragon was actually the first major toy company back in 2008 to only work with platinum silicone so they have loads of experience which echos in their brilliant and elaborate color patterns. Silicone is the perfect material for colored toys since it takes on the color really well and does not discolor or fade over time. Each of their toys comes in different color patterns and can be highly customized. On their website is a configuration tool where you can see the toy in your desired pattern in 3D with a sizing tool. Just in case you are unsure if the toy is too big. Important when choosing the right size is to consider the firmness: The bigger the toy, the firmer it will feel. You can choose from soft (Shore A2), medium (Shore A5) and firm (Shore A8 which is still relatively soft).

Bishop’s Knot with the Small „Stopper“ Bump

More important than the coloring are the material properties of platinum silicone: First of all it is 100% body safe. This is extremely important because the human rectum has a very receptive mucous lining (That’s why you get extreme alcohol poisoning when you pour booze into your ass! Don’t do it!) so plasticizers or other potential toxins emitted from low quality PVC/ vinyl toys can enter the bloodstream easily.  Besides not being harmful to your body, platinum silicone has a super-smooth surface so it is easy to clean. For cleaning simple put the toy in warm dishsoap water, let it soak and rinse it off (I take post play bath with the toys on a regular basis). For extra cleaning, spray them with sanitizer or put them in an autoclave. While we are on the topic, a word how to care for your new silicone sculptures: Do not store them together with toys made out of other materials. The plasticizers leaving the material can damage your silicone toys for good. Especially when they are made out of soft silicone, store them upright. Otherwise they get dents and creases. One drawback of silicone is that is must not be used with silicone lube! The silicone oil inside will disintegrate the toy and tarnish the surface over time. Water or oil based lubes are perfect for them!

Spritz Textured Neck with the Suction Cup Base

Most toys can be customized with different options: The newest is called Dragon Mount but is actually a Vac-U-Lock hole. If your toy can be equipped with it, get it! While especially the larger toys might be too heavy for fuck machines, there are tons of Vac-U-Lock accessories like handles out there. When playing as a top I also like to guide the toy by sticking a thumb into the hole. The next best thing is the suction cup. Unlike with other toy companies, the Bad Dragon suction cup it deep and thus heavy duty! When you want to ride larger toys, I consider it an essential because otherwise the base will slide away. The suction cup is strong enough to stick even XL toys to the bathroom wall and you don’t pull them off when you deknot. The cum tube is a controversial topic. None of my Bad Dragons have a cum tube. With friends’ toys I was able to try the effect of shooting cum lube up my ass. It did not feel so intense but added a fuckton of effort to the cleaning. However, after every Bad Dragon review I post I am getting inundated with messages from people who swear by the cum tube! It adds so much of immersion to their toy that they would never buy a toy without it. If you have never tried a Bad Dragon with a cum tube and consider it, I highly recommend buying one of their Lil’Squirte to test the effect before buying an equipped big toy.

Vector & Chance next to Each other

Bad Dragon used to make every toy according to custom orders. This led to production times up to half year. So two years back they switched their order system: On a more or less regular basis they now have drops of already made toys. Sadly XL toys are rare in these drops and I know what you ass pigs are after. Once in a blue moon Bad Dragon opens custom orders for a limited number of orders. Then you can order your dream configuration. A lot of guys complain to me that this system sucks. I actually find it a lot better than the old one since they only take as many orders as they can process in a foreseeable time so you do not have to wait forever to get your new fantasy dong. Also, I do not know when the next drop/ custom order date is! Best you follow them on Twitter or Instagram; they announce drops and custom orders there.

Playing with Vector

Not sure why, but there has been an influx of review requests for equine inspired dildos. And “inspired” is the right term for Vector because he is a cyborg variety of a horse.

Chance & Vector’s Texture

The most often question I have gotten asked was “Is he larger than Chance?” Vector is slightly taller and the shaft is slightly thicker. The base is about the same side and cannot be equipped with a suction cup. This makes riding Vector a bit more challenging. Due to being larger, he is even more head-heavy than Chances and likes to tip over in medium firmness. Usually I don’t give firmness advice but for Vector I would advice to go with medium. In soft he flops around too much and is difficult to control, especially when playing alone. In firm he is too rigid and does not bend around the kinks of your colon. In medium he is just bendy enough tough due to being bigger than Chance he is a bit more rigid.

Vector is unflared so there is just a little bluge going around the glans rim. But the glans itself is wider and even flatter than on Chance. You need a good, pre-stretched hole to open up to this dull tip. Being a cyborg toy, the shaft is lightly textured with conducting paths, very subtle bumps & ridges and shallow panels with hexagonal patterns. Much like Chance subtle veins the pattern adds just a bit of friction when riding the toy but is mostly unnoticeable. The largest rising is the quite prominent ventral groove running down the shaft. And of course the medial ring which is wide band which rises vertically from the shaft so it is more noticeable than on Chance. The medial ring sits about 2/3 down the shaft. Below it the texture gets deeper and thus is more noticeable. But still far from the scales of a Clayton or Flint.

Vector’s Cowboy Boot Base

The base has an interesting design. Instead of big stallion balls it is shaped like a (space) cowboy boot. The apex of the instep strap goes about 40mm above the rest of the base which is a bit of a challenge if you want to take Vector (w)hole. The bottom of the shaft is a bit disappointing compared to Chance. There was a cluster of this lateral veins about 50mm above the base which massages the anus when riding him deep which I enjoy very much. But since Vector goes deeper and wider it is probably wise to not over-stimulate.

Playing with Bishop

Bishop comes from the same cyborg inspiration as Vector. But instead of a horse a dog was the inspiration for this dildo. And he plays a much meaner game than Vector.

The Curvature of Bishop’s Body

The first thing you notice when looking at Bishop is the unusual overall shape: The dildo is arching backwards. So if you ride him the traditional way with his balls pointing to yours, there is a constant light pressure on your anus. The shaft protrudes and pushes against the prostate. Until you come to the knot! Unlike other knots which are located below the shaft Bishop’s bulge extends backwards. This makes the knotting experience quite intense. And the knot-massive to-neck ratio of 3:2 makes the deknotting equally impressive! And that is before you start looking at the texture.

The glans is very tame. Gradually tapering it opens the anus up nicely. But since its orientation is perpendicular to the anus openung it is a bit more challenging than other toys. The shaft is textured with ridges in the form of metal plates welded on top of each other. The shaft’s bottom is textured with 7 scale-like plates mounted on top of each other for a saw-like texture, much like Flint only shallower. The top as well as the upside of the knot only has a few large plates with shallower drops mounted on top of each other so it is a bit smoother ride. The bottom of the knot has a faint hexagonal pattern imprinted. A nice touch are two round bumps just above the neck at the bottom of the knot. They might not look big and are easily compressed. But this little added texture makes the deknotting even more intense.

The Welded Plate Texture on Bishop’s Top

The intense texture in addition to the unusual curvature make Bishops a horny toy to ride if you are experienced and are in for hard prostate and anus stimulation. Depending on your physiology the large will already penetrate your second hole. Due to arching backwards the penetration is intense. Despite not going deep and the glans tapering gently, I would not recommend this toy for depth novices. Overall, Bishop is a compact toy. He stands sturdily straight up, especially when fixed with a suction cup. So you can ride him vigorously without him accidentally slipping out or away.

Playing with Spritz

Compared to the previous two toys, Spritz is a very traditional design. But Spritz has a few tricks up his sleeve.

Spritz tapering Glans

Like Bishop’s glans, Spritz’ glans is perpendicular to the anus orientation. But it is even more cone-shaped for gradual opening up. There is no glans drop but three ridges below the glans. They are quite stimulating but also add friction so going deeper is a challenge.

The shaft is extremely, almost 90° curved. This adds pressure inside the colon but also makes taking the toy deep a bit easier. There are two thick lateral bulges on the shaft which are only really noticeable when you turn the shaft inside the rectum.

Above the knot are again three thick and high ridges. Especially the drop below the last one is significant. They stimulate the anus intensely but make taking the knot more difficult. When the knot is still a challenge you usually ride the top of the knot, recede a bit onto the shaft to rest and attack it again. But the rest phase “irritates” (= stimulates) the anus, making it tighter. The knot is voluminous but tapers softly so the knotting itself is not hard just a lot of volume. Funnily there is a ventral groove on the knot which works as a bit of a guiding rod.

The Extremely Curved Shaft of Spritze with the Two Clusters of Ridges

The neck is very short but long enough for the anus to close completely. It is a bit textured with vertical grooves which are only noticeable when you turn the toy. But especially in the larger sizes this will hardly ever happen due to the strong curvature. What I would have liked more would have been lateral bumps like Clayton’s so there is a bit of stimulation when you are bouncing on the toy. Luckily the base is massive and can be equipped with a suction cup so riding Spritz hard is not an issue.

Vendor: Mr Hankey’s Toys

I wanted to review these toys early next year so you can start out with FFun in the dark months following the candle-lit holidays. But since next Friday is Black Friday and apparently many of you want to stock up, I have gotten many questions about these toys. So I decided to review these for big and challenging brutes today before switching to bondage gear for the Advent Sundays how it has become a beloved tradition.

The Mr Hankey’s Toys Ray Diesel, Cutler X, Cockadile & Horny Rhino

Construction

All toys by Mr Hankey’s Toys are made out of platinum silicone. This material is 100% body safe, highly resistant towards acid and heat and with the super-smooth surface leave little possibilities for bacteria to linger and is easy to clean. In order to keep your silicone toys in top shape, never use it with silicone or hybrid lubes! The silicone oil inside the lube will tarnish the surface and disintegrate the material over time! Water- and oil-based lubes are fine. After play, the toy should be thoroughly cleaned. Putting them in hot water with dish soap and sanitizing them afterwards is usually enough. A lazy way is putting the dildos in a dishwasher or autoclave them.

The Vac-U-Lock Hole at the Bottom of the Horny Rhino

Silicone comes in a wide range of firmnesses. Off the rack Mr Hankey’s Toys come in two firmness degrees. The firmer is called “Medium” which is about the firmness of a fully hard penis. If you enjoy texture like me, this is the one to pick, especially if you want to feel the real deal with a realistic dildo. The softer variety is called “75%”. 75% is popular with longer toys because they bend more easily around the bends in your colon. However, the softer the toy, the easier they collapse and the harder they are to ride. In the end it comes down to personal taste if you prefer your toys to force your sphincter open or to pop through. Mr Hankey’s offer custom firmnesses for $15.95 but I have never tried that. I would only recommend this if you have a large collection of anal toys already and can imagine how a toy will feel in a certain firmness! Because the larger the toy, the firmer it will feel! So be careful not to over- or in rare cases undershoot.

Another great material property of silicone is that it takes on coloration easily for vibrant colors that don’t fade over time.  Depending on the toy, it comes in only one standard color (Cutler X in Deep Brown) or up to five (Horny Rhino & Cocikadile in Gunmetal Grey, Metallic Green, Black, Deep Brown & Natural Tan) from which you can choose with no surcharge. For $29.95 you can get custom colors or color combinations. Mr Hankey’s Toys used to make gorgeous fades where a contrast color was poured over a solid colored core. Sadly they stopped these extravagant designs and now do marbles. For the Cockadile I tried a reptile like Green & Brown marble and for the Ray Diesel a Black & Yellow. And I like both a lot!

The different Bases

While custom firmness and colors are a nice option, I highly recommend getting the toys equipped with a Vac-U-Lock hole for just $4.95. Originally designed to attach the toy to fuck machines, there are a number of nifty accessories out there for this kind of system: Handles, Strap-On harnesses, suction cups and double-dildo connectors. If you play with a partner, he can also put his finger inside the hole to guide the toy.

Cutler X

This dildo is a life-cast toy from the famous gay porn star Cutler X. Because of this, it only comes in one size. And that size is also plenty of dildo. If you every fantasized of getting plowed by Cutler X or need a silicone dong to ride while watching his porn, this toys is the way to go!

It starts out with a nicely tapered glans which ends in a double bulge rim and no glans drop. The shaft is almost perfectly straight and opens up a bit in width a bit but not in depth. It is lightly textured with shallow veins. Two massive balls form the big and sturdy base.

Comparing the Glans of the Ray Diesel & Cutler X

If it wasn’t for the massive size, I would call the Cutler X a good beginner’s toy. The tapered glans gradually opens up the anus and the straight shaft is perfect to get used to the feeling of getting fucked. But since it is a relatively big toy, you should have some experience to enjoy it. If you have this experience level, the Cutler X is a great dildo to put on a fuck machine and get plowed for hours. The shallow veins and ridges are perfect for stimulating the many nerve endings inside the anus, especially in medium firmness. Since the shaft has an oval intersection, it is a good dildo for opening up the hole. Simply twist and turn it while slowly fucking the bottom in front of you in the sling.

Much like the XXXCalibur (link to review) the Cutler X is good toy for depth training. Unlike the XXXCalibur the Cutler X has a massive base and it not head-heavy so it does not tip over. Because of this it is perfect for riding the toy and applying just the right amount of pressure when stretching your second hole.

The Cutler X costs $149.95 at MHT’s online shop.

Dimensions Glans Dimensions Middle Dimensions above Base Insertable Length Overall Length

Ray Diesel

Like the previous toy, the Ray Diesel is a life-cast dildo from the eponymous power top. Unlike the predecessor it comes in five sizes so you can adjust the dildo you are getting to your experience level.

The Light Texture of the Cutler X & Ray Diesel

At the top there is a dullish glans with a big and wide glans drop and bulgy transition to the shaft. The most striking feature of the shaft is its form: It is SO wide that I would almost call it oblong instead of oval. It also strongly curved. Except one bumpier vein on the top right side in the middle, the veins are even shallower and thus the texture more subtle than on the Cutler X. The ball sack forming the base is again massive. Apparently Mr. Diesel has so bug bull balls that you can hardly make out the individual testicles in the cast of his scrotum.

To make a long story short: The Ray Diesel is a butt buster! The glans with its dull tip and big drop pushes the anus open instead of gradually coercing it to open up. Over the first half of the shaft, its width increases by 30% which is a massive stretch over such short distance, also giving the rectum little rest during the process. Taking the Ray Diesel completely is a different challenge, especially in the larger sizes. Due the curvature, it has quite the strong orientation and “spring” to it. If your second hole does not lie in the direction of the dildos, its tendency to return to its cast shape will make taking it deep even more difficult than the dull glans would imply.

Riding the toy is a unique experience: If you ride it like getting fucked, the dildo enters the anus perpendicular to the natural orientation of the anus, stretching your hole HARD. If you let the dildo enter in the orientation of the anus, the curvature will push the shaft against the anus. So regardless of the orientation, the Ray Diesel will challenge your hole.

The Massive 4:3 ratio of Ray Diesel’s Shaft

In the right hands and right hole, the Ray Diesel is a toy for a steep hole opening regime. Push it in in the orientation of the hole and then slowly turn it. Due to the absurd width-depth ratio of almost 3:4 twisting only a bit will already put a lot of pressure on the anus.

Even when you are a greedy ass pig, don’t be too ambitious and let yourself be misled by the size information. The shape of the dildo makes it considerably harder to take than similarly sized dildos. Looking for a big and challenging dildo I went for the XXXL in Medium firmness since it didn’t look too big, especially compared to some of my – firm – fantasy dildos. But I can hardly take half of it and it is a quite straining experience. So my advice is to choose a smaller size if you look for still heavy but manageable FFun.

The Ray Diesel comes in five sizes starting at $129.95 for the small and ending at $219.95 for the XXXL plus extras.

Horny Rhino’s Glans

Horny Rhino

Unlike the to previous toys, the Horny Rhino isn’t a life-cast toy. It isn’t even sculptured after a rhino penis (doing zoological research for these reviews is… interesting). But nevertheless, it is a literally a horny toy to play with!

It starts with a dullish glans that looks like peaking out of foreskin. The foreskin rim is textured with little bumps. From the bottom of the foreskin two thick strains wrap around the shaft to the front. In the middle, the shaft bulges outward a bit. To add even more girth, there are two thick lateral strains. This leads to a basic shape of two bulges being stacked on top of each other if you look at the dildo from the top. The shaft ends in a pocket-like sheath which is a final, massive stretch before you can rest on a wide round base. The entire dildo is textured with horizontal folds and wrinkles. To add even more texture, there are several medium-thick veins running perpendicularly.

The Texture and Complex Shape of the Horny Rhino

The Horny Rhine is a toy for texture junkies! The many crossing over textures on the shaft stimulate – or torment if riding the toy quickly – the anus.  The complex shape leads to a wave-like flow of stretch and tightening which stimulates the anus even more. This is of course best enjoyed lying in a sling or being in doggy position and a top handling the toy. Twisting the toy inside the bottom adds a new layer of possible sensations. One top managed to prostate milk his chaste sub with the strains. To fully enjoy this overflow of sensations you should be well-stretched. The dull glans does not make taking the toy easy and the texture will make the anus tighten up again.

Surprisingly, the Horny Rhine goes deep relatively easily (if you second hole opens up to the dull glans and does not clench due to the stimulation). The complex shape of strains and bulges create predetermined bending points for the dildo following the rectal anatomy. So even my medium firmness Rhino dildo went deep easily.

You can get the Horny Rhino in four sizes from small starting at $129.95 to XL for $192.95 + extras at the MHT online shop.

The Different Textures on the Cockadile

Cockadile

Over the first waves of COVID alligators and crocodiles have gotten some cultural significance in the gay scene (Flat Fuck Friday anyone?). So it was only a question of time until the first reptile inspired dildo came out. And here we are with the Cockadile.

Basically this dildos is the stylized torso of a crocodile. It starts out with a pointy, snout-like glans. Following a short neck the shaft has the shape of a flattened barrel make the intersection oval. It sits on a round and wide base. While the shape sounds not spectacular, the texture is the highlight of this dildo! On top of the shaft runs a thin band of full-size scales worthy of an Hermes Birkin Bag. The flanks feature very small scales. To also make this side interesting, there are a number of bumps. The bottom is flat with wide ridges. Finally the glans is jagged and features small scales like on a real critter.

The Snout-Like Glans of the Cockadile

Due to the pointy glans the Cockadile is easy to take so it is a great to get into texture play. Unlike the Horny Rhine the basic shape is not that complex so it is easier to take and you can focus on the texture. The texture is complex and plentiful enough for an intense stimulation of the anus. The bumps on the side give a bit of added stretch but not too much to make the anus clench.  A beginner should take the dildo aligned with the anus to there is a more “scratchy” side (= the more textured top). If you are more experienced and lie relaxed in the sling, it is worth to let your top fuck you with the Cockadile perpendicularly. The big scales on top scratching the prostate is very hot! Similarly to the Horny Rhino the Cockadile is relatively easy to take deep because the snout bends quite easily.

Depending on the size, the Cockadile can be yours from the MHT online shop from between $129.95 and $208.94 plus extras.

When Oxballs announced that they would be releasing some new, even bigger Pig-Hoes, my inbox exploded. If had played with one yet, what my opinion on those were, how the new silicone blend compared to the old one. Against popular opinion I only very rarely get preproduction samples. So during my USA trip in September I stocked up with some new Oxballs stuff. And after some thorough review scenes, here are my thoughts.

Construction

All Pig-Hole Popper share the same basic design of Pig-Holes. The Popper Tall and Big Gaper are versions of the Pig-Hole Deep (link to review), the Jumbo Gaper is basically an Pig-Hole FF (link to review). They also keep the basic wall strength. Inside the barrel is textured with lateral ridges like on their cousins. The big different is that the outside of the barrel is not smooth but it is textured with big bumps. There are three on the Big Gaper, four on the Tall and five Bumps on the Jumbo Gaper. Like the Pig-Hole Deep and FF all Popper cannot be turned inside out.

Before I come to the dimensions, a word on the maximum dimensions. After my last Pig-Hole reviews, I have gotten a couple of messages complaining that my measurements are not accurate. The combined the Pig-Hole with a dick/ fist/ toy and the maximum dimensions were considerable larger than described. Since the silicone is flexible, it will stretch. So the toy can feel and be considerable larger than measured when stuffed!

Toy Base Bottom Opening Max. Dimensions Top Opening Insertable Length Overall Length
Big Gaper 80x93mm 37x45mm 67x68mm 33x38mm 110mm 145mm
Tall 102x116mm 47x54mm 80x86mm 43x50mm 150mm 192mm
Jumbo Gaper 87x118mm 52x67mm 105x106mm 49x64mm 107mm 150mm

The Opening of the Jumbo Gaper compared to the FF

For the Popper range, Oxballs uses a new platinum silicone blend they call “Marshmallow silicone”. Of course the material has the same material properties as every other silicone blend. It is non-toxic, hypoallergenic, easy to clean and sanitize with warm soap water.  In order not to damage the toys, only use it with water- or oil-based lubes. The silicone oil in silicone lube disintegrates the silicone over time. Firmness-wise I recall reading a Shore 00-value on Twitter. But since I cannot find the Tweet again, I am not going to quote it, especially since the value sounded quite low compared to the felt firmness. Subjectively the firmness sits between the regular Pig-Hole silicone and the Oxballs’ Morph silicone.

Colorwise Oxballs follows recent years’ trend of marbled, brightly colored anal toys. Besides the classic Solid Black, the offer six marble colors: Fire (Red & Orange), Water (Blue & Teal), Weed (Lime & Olive), Orchid (Purple & Lavender), Unicorn (Violet & Light Blue) and Rosebud (Magenta & Pink).  My Popper Jumbo is Black, the Popper Big Gaper Water and the Popper Tall’s color is Rosebud. Each marble is different with an individual color and pattern. Personally, I would have preferred my Water to have more blue and instead of the Rosebud and Black, I’d chosen Fire and Weed. But since there were so many review requests coming for these toys, I chose availability over colors.

The Bottom of the Jumbo Gaper and FF

Playing with the Pig-Hole Poppers

Despite being firmer than the Morph silicone (link to review), the Marshmallow of the Poppers is squishy yet far from the sponginess of the Marshmallows. “Firm Fudge” would probably been a better description though in regards of anal play probably not as sexy as Marshmallow.

The bumps around the barrel have two effects: First, the added texture makes taking the toy more difficult. The bumps are well rounded but the “rugged” surface keeps the toys from sliding in as easily as its smooth cousins (nota bene: I have not yet played with the Pig-Hole Squeal but I assume it’s texture will make it more difficult to take it). Second, the massive lumps around the barrel make it more rigid. Surprisingly, fisting through the Popper Jumbo Gaper is not much more difficult than through the Pig-Hole FF in regular firmness (I don’t have a Morph for comparison). This is partly due to the Marshmallow silicone being softer and the grooves between the bumps serve as expansion joints. With very small and nimble hands you can fist through the Popper Tall. The Popper Big Gaper is not fistable regardless of how small and strong the hand is!

The Bumps/ Knots of the Pig-Hole Popper

But the Big Gaper is the perfect dick sheath if you want to get knot-fucked! Most fantasy sheaths are made out of too thin, too soft silicone so they slip off easily. This is not the case with the Big Gaper! Of course with either need to grab the base while fucking or put the plug in a strap-on harness before you put in on your dick. For REALLY well-endowed guys, this might also work with the Popper Tall. Naturally, the Big Gaper is also a good fuck plug. The ridged inside the barrel will massage the glans while it slides through the tunnel.

The different Pig-Hole Popper stuffed with the Organotoy Sit-Plug, the Topped Toys Gape Keeper and SquarePeg Egg Plugs

The added spring and rigidity of the bumps makes folding the Pig-Hole Popper more difficult. If you are not extremely lose, folding the Pig-Hole is the best way to insert it. To fold the Poppers, grab the bumps on the lower end of the aperture and push those inwards. This is quite difficult with a well-lubed toy but it is the only way to decrease the diameter and make the toy more compact to push it through the sphincter. It truly is a toy for those holes who are not challenged by the larger Pig-Holes anymore.

For bottomless holes, another insertion method is putting a plug inside the tunnel and push the whole, not-collapsible Pig-Hole Popper into the hopefully well poppered bottom. You can adjust the intensity by your choice of plug: The softer and more rounded the plug, the easier will go in (for this I recommend a Topped Toys Gape Keeper [link to review] or SquarePeg Egg Plug in soft [link to review]). If you like it HARD, choose a firm Egg Plug (link to review) and/ or a plug the fills and stretched the inside of the barrel completely like the SquarePeg Acorn (link to review) or Organotoy Sit-Plug (link to review). If you grab the bottom of the Pig-Hole Popper and the stuffing plug, you can fuck the bottom with the texture and torment his sphincter and prostate by turning the combo inside his rectum. This is an intense ride but fun for texture junkies (like me).

Openings of the Pig-Hole Popper compared to old Pig-Holes

The bumps’ “texture” and larger diameter lock the Poppers quite well into the hole even when lubed handsomely. During the testing period accidentally shooting out the Pig-Hole Popper did not happen. So if you have an issue with your anus ejecting Pig-Holes, give the Poppers a try. From this angle the Big Gaper starts to make sense. My – to be frank quite greedy and experienced – testees were looking at this size a bit puzzled: Why introduce the Popper bumps onto a small toy? It is made for people not so anally experienced yet who for example want to turn their rectum into a free for urinal but fear that the trough might fall out. To learn what the different kinds of Pig-Holes are for, read my review of the Original Pig-Hole Range, the Pig-Hole Morph, the Pig-Hole FF and the Pig-Hole Deep (and yes, I am aware that I still have to review the Pig-Hole Squeal).

Bases of the Pig-Hole Popper compared to old Pig-Holes

Finally, let’s get down & dirty for some important pieces of sewer play advice. If you are faint of heart, stop reading here. From reader questions I know that quite a few of you like to play dirty with the Pig-Holes. Especially diaper peers and guys who want to surrender control completely enjoy the gaping powers of the toy. However, silicone takes on smell easily. The softer, the quicker. The longer the toy is exposed to the smell-carrying substance, the “deeper” the smell sinks into the toy. So superficial cleaning with disodorizing or sanitizing agents will not help. The good news is, the smell will fade over time. But if you have play partners who are picky about certain scents, you might want to get two Pig-Holes: One for dirty, one for clean play.

Where to buy?

You can get the Pig-Hole Popper directly at Oxballs. The Big Gaper is $99, the Tall is $159 and finally the Jumbo Gaper is $189 which is probably going to be the most popular.

Vendor: ElyX Toys

In the six years that I have been reviewing anal toys I have reviewed some huge toys. But for some readers the BIG size options of the toys I have reviewed were not large enough. So toys with ElyX I am following your request to take a look at some of the most MASSIVE toys on the market.

The ElyX Toy Solaris & Pegasi

Construction

Among my testees there was some discussion in which form category these toys belong but despite the length we settled for plugs despite the length these toys can get in larger sizes. In the end, you buy an ElyX toy to get stretched and fill full which made us lean a bit toward plug instead of (knotted) dildo.

ElyX only makes toys out of platinum silicone so they are 100% body safe and easy to clean. Though you must not use them with silicone lube because it will disintegrate the material. Making some of the biggest insertable toys on the planet is also reflected in the firmness option. Unlike other companies ElyX starts with toys in Shore 00-20 which is extremely squishy but also delicate. These toys are extremely prone for creases. They have to be stored upright and other toys must not lay on them in a used-toy bucket. Other firmness options are the common soft Shore 00-30 and the medium firm Shore 00-50.

The Vac-U-Lock and Suction Cup

All toys can be equipped with a Vac-U-Lock hole or a deep suction cup. The Vac-U-Lock is great if you are playing with a partner because you can attach a handle or he can push his finger in the hole to guide the toy. The smaller versions of the toy will work on a fuck machine. The larger one are too heavy for the rods. The deep suction cup surprised me! It is so deep and thus strong that even large toys stick to the wall. So if this is your kind of solo play style, I highly recommend it.

One of the nice properties of platinum silicone how well it takes on color and effects like UV activity or glow in the dark. The creative mind behind ElyX toys on a regular basis creates new patterns, marbles and combinations. So I recommend checking out his Twitter feed for inspiration or approach him with your own ideas.

Pegasi’s Tip

Pegasi starts out with two flattish bulbs that for the tip. The taper towards a short neck which forms into a shallow ridge on the front and the back. Left and right of these ridges are massive bulbs. Below them runs a ridge around the toy. The neck is also textured with two ridges before ending in a wide base.

While Pegasi has big yet smooth flowing texture, Solaris plays a different game. Across the top of the tip run two parallel ridges which end in what could be considered a glans rim. Left and right of the ridges are small bumps. The back of the shaft is textured by two horizontal ridges while the front features a pair of converging vertical ridges. These ridges run all the way to the base and up again until just below the horizontal ones. The encapsulate two bumps, the lower ones so large, they could be called a knot. The neck above the base is quite short but the texture will still keep the toy locked in your hole.

 

The Double Bumps Surrounded by the Ridge

Playing with Pegasi & Solaris

First things first: I have promised you BIG toys and when you look at the pics, you will probably say “They are big but not that massive.” In order for (most of) my testees and me to play with them, I chose “sensible” sizes. But you can get both toys like all ElyX toys in super-sizes. Though when they go large they also go long. So keep in mind that the texture that first tantalizes your rectum will eventually (over) stimulate your sensitive second sphincter.

Solaris‘ Tip

Despite my toys being the smaller sizes of the range, they are not for beginners. You need a trained (as in fistable!) and pre-stretched hole to really enjoy the toys.  Due to the dull tip and high level of texture, they will not gradually open up your hole or slide in easily. So if a stretching toy like the SP Egg, the OT Sit-Plug or the TT Gape Keeper fits, it is unlikely that similarly sized ElyX toy will fit.

The Pegasi is a bit more for “beginner” or people looking for a smooth sensation ride. The different textures and stretching points are stacked on top of each other so you can enjoy them individually. Solaris on the other hand is a bit chaotic with lateral bulbs next to ridges and textures being all over the place. So Solaris unleashes his full potential best in the hands of a skilled top who twists and turns the toy inside the hole. It takes some learning but once you figured the toy out, you can purposely create a bit of stimulus overload when one texture is scratching the prostate while the anus is stimulated differently. When you ride the toys, the textures are a bit all over the place.

Pegasi’s Ridges

Pegasi is made for riding! The two lateral bulges deliver a great stretching sensation. Once you go deeper, the first ridge is perfect for prostate humping/ massaging while the lower two ridges stimulate the anus. But also in the hands of a top, it reveals some hidden qualities. The bulgey tip is perfect for prostate stimulation and turning the knotty bulges inside the anus makes a great stretch sensation.

Where to buy?

You can buy all toys through ElyX’s Etsy store. There are not always all sizes and colors available. If you are interested in something particular, drop him a message.
