Hurricane Sandy

As you can guess by my nick, I'm located in NYC. We are just getting out of the effects of Hurricane Sandy, a.k.a. "Frankenstorm". That fucker damaged the city and the whole Tri-State area, breaking homes, schools, and churches all over the place.

I was one of the fortunate people that did not suffer any damage, but I urge you to cooperate - either by volunteering in your area or by sending monetary donations to trustworthy organizations.

Personally, I only trust in two organizations:

American Red Cross 

Salvation Army

Please, cooperate if you are able to help our friends who suffered the effects of this hurricane.

Thanks,

El Casque

RPP 3.0 #29: Meiki Hibiki Ootsuki (Meiki 008) (RPP #81)

When I saw the ads for the newest meiki from NPG, the Meiki Hibiki Ootsuki (also known as Meiki 008), I exclaimed "What?! Another meiki?!" The reality is that even when meikis are supposed to replicate the sensations you can get from a real-life vagina, they can't. After you use a few of these meikis, they begin to feel... the same. They are soft and pleasurable, but sometimes you cannot feel the difference between one generation or the other. Will Meiki 008 suffer from this syndrome? Lets see...
 
General Description
The Meiki 008 has an exterior very similar to the Chika Eiro - a boxy design with beautiful pussy lips and a tiny entry hole. In the interior, the similarities continue because the Hibiki is also a single layer masturbator. As you can expect from a meiki from NPG, the canal is realistic with a tight canal and a very soft and flexible material that hugs you without much pressure around your penis.  It has all the requisite sensations from most meikis: realistic textures replicating the vaginal muscles, bumps and mounds to replicate the organic pressure points, and of course, the infamous G-Spot. Right there is where the Hibiki separates from the rest.

When you look at the Hibiki's g-spot, you notice it is not the usual rounded bump or the O shaped structure you find in most realistic masturbators. In the Hibiki, the g-spot is more "squared", looking almost as a push button. Also, the g-spot has a cone-shaped stinger in its center. It sounds weird, but that little stinger makes a world of difference when you use the Hibiki because you will notice it while fucking this toy.

As most meikis, the Hibiki seems to be a mid to low- intensity toy, designed for more pleasure than intensity.

Review

Well, at first try, the Hibiki does not feel unique or special. It feels fine and realistic and it will make you cum, but the first impression is "I'm fucking another meiki". I really felt a difference during my third session with the toy - thanks in great part to the fact I was completely relaxed when I masturbated that night. That night I took my time and fucked the Hibiki slowly and without hurry. At that session, I felt the pleasure from the ribs and nubs at the center section of the toy and the stinger on its g-spot. That session felt fantastic and in the following session two nights later, I made a point to relax my body and my brain to fully experience this toy. It felt extremely good...

The Hibiki's G-Spot (QueenCatAdultToys)

Again, meikis are designed to be pleasure rides, not intensity loaded rides, but the Hibiki can be intense - if you know how to "turn on" the intensity. To feel intensity with this toy, I had to use a thinner lubricant (Flesh Lube Water) and fuck this toy hands free as slow as I could. I had to allow my little friend to get swollen inside the toy and feel all the ridges and specially the g-spot stinger.



The stinger became my favorite part of the toy. I could feel the little nub caressing the head of my penis on every slow stroke - and it felt better when changing the orientation of the toy, so the g-spot rubbed the frenulum.

Orgasms with the Hibiki were strong, but nothing earth-shattering or teeth-clenching. They felt like they should feel: ball draining, sleep-inducing, and sandwich eating orgasms. (Too bad the Meiki Plush Doll does not make sandwiches!)

Cleaning the Hibiki is like cleaning any other meiki. The entrance ripped a little after the first use, but nothing major or even cosmetically noticeable from afar.

Verdict:

Personally, I liked the Hibiki, although it felt very similar to the Chika Eiro. I was able to feel a difference after I met certain conditions (relaxed, slow hands-free thrusting ), but before that I could not differentiate it from other meikis.

FYI:

For this review, I used both Fleshlube Water and Honey Drops as the lube. I used the Meiki Plush Doll for the hands free sessions.

RPP 3.0 #27: Fleshlight Girls' Cougar (Nina Hartley) (RPP #79)

Since the debut of the Fleshlight Girls line , Fleshlight has been moving away from the young, barely legal models and getting more mature models. From the teen web cam models they began with, they moved to porn stars (usually in their 20's), and more recently they had been including models in their 30's and 40's like Lisa Ann and the whole V-Force lineup. Now, they include the prototype of the MATURE women: Nina Hartley! Fleshlight released the Cougar, a texture inspired by the 53 year old porn veteran and her experienced pussy. Is it good? Lets see...

General Description
The Cougar has an orifice modeled after the pussy of the porn legend Nina Hartley. Even when we are talking about a 53 years-old woman, the labia on this toy is simply beautiful. You can see it in the picture on the right - it looks perfect!

Well, if you had been reading this blog, you know I don't care much about the looks. Texture is the main reason I buy these toys and the Cougar is an interesting texture. It is basically a Fleshlight with soft ridges and a single row of soft discs on the side  of the canal. Yes, the discs are on the side of the tunnel, not at the bottom (where they would hit your penis' frenulum) nor at the top, where they would stimulate your penis' head. Since the ridges are softer than the ones in the Super Ribbed, the Cougar promised to be a middle intensity sleeve with the chance of some variation depending on how you fuck it.

Review

Well, the Cougar resulted to be a really interesting texture. At first, it felt mostly as a pure ribbed toy - which was kind of disappointing - until I was able to feel the discs on the side. That took some minutes, but once I was able to feel them, I realized the texture was softer than the Super Ribbed, but it could be pretty intense.



With the end cap fully tightened, the intensity of the ribs is muted, so you feel the discs on the side and kind of a multitude of nubs around your penis (the ridges are soft enough to simply caress and not overwhelm you). In this setting, the Cougar is a purring cat that is playing with you, teasing and pleasuring until your poor penis can't take anymore and spurts inside her. Having an orgasm after that long, pleasurable build up is one great experience.


But wait... what about releasing the end cap? Oh, this is when the Cougar gets serious! If you use the Cougar without the end cap, the texture is fully awake, giving an intense workout on your little friend. The ridges feel more pressing, and the discs caress the side of the penis, stimulating an area that usually is ignored. The result: Intense and hard orgasms leaving you trying to catch your breath.

As with all Fleshlights, cleaning the Cougar is simple: just flush with water.

Score:

Immediate Feedback: 4/5
Orgasm Buildup: 5/5
Realism: 3/5
Tightness: 4/5 
Tear and Wear: 5/5 
Hygiene: 5/5

Use: 5/5 

Value: High
Preference: High

Total score:  37 / 40

Verdict:

The Cougar is like an experienced professional: it can tease you until you cum or simply fuck and grind you. Personally, I would have preferred the discs aligned with the lower part of the pussy, so the discs had hit the underside of the penis, but still it is a cool toy to have.

FYI:

For this review, I used Fleshlube Water as the lube and used the Meiki Plush Doll for the hands free sessions.


BTW, this is the owner of that meaty pussy in real life...

Answers to a few questions...

One of the great things about writing a blog is that readers ask questions on the comments area. Sometimes, answering these questions is easy - one or two lines would do - but often, there are questions that deserve longer answers, sometimes too long for a reply. So I have taken three of those questions and replied to them in a post. Lets start...

1. Which doll is better: the modified Aki or the Meiki Plush Doll? (Anonymous)

As I wrote in the reply, it is difficult to compare these two excellent dolls. For those of you that don't know what I am talking about, the Aki is a clear air doll from Japan which I modified with a pair of Quty Tits (see the review here and the mods here) while the Meiki Doll is a plush torso sold by ToyDemon (see my review here). Personally, I prefer solid dolls because they provide some resistance when you use them and they feel more realistic to the touch. Now, inflatable dolls have their good points, specially when dealing with storage. If you have a busted back like me, an air babe is a great option - no weight to lift, no effort to move it around. So, which one is better? Well, it depends on your preferences and your masturbators. 

Both dolls have realistic measures, attractive curves, and excellent quality construction. If you want a doll that is easily stored when not used, then any of the clear Japanese ladies will do - Aki, Nana, Usahane, or Ren. All of these dolls accept small and medium sized masturbators (Toys Heart, Lilith, Succubus, etc) and can be dressed with your favorite clothes. If you want to feel like a porn star and shoot your "money shot" over her breasts or ass, cleaning is super easy - just wipe with a damp cloth or paper towel. They also are easy to modify with breasts masturbators like the Quty Tits by following the same procedure I used. Drawbacks? Air dolls are prone to develop puncture wounds, so be aware of any sharp object or abrasive surface. The price for your fantasies is about US$105 for the combo ($40 for the doll and  $65 for the Quty Tits).

On the other hand, if your masturbator collection includes a lot of larger masturbators like the Meikis and Fleshlights, the best option is the Meiki Doll. Yes, it costs twice as the Aki / Quty combo ($230), and money shots will be a pain in the ass to clean, but it will accommodate all your rubber pussies from the small ones to the huge Fleshlights. Storage is trickier - you will need a duffel bag or a closet to hide it - but if you live alone, it really does not matter. Also, any modification or repair requires at least having minimum sewing skills and equipent.

So, the best doll is the one that suits your budget, living arrangemments, and masturbator collection. Both the Aki and the Meiki are excellent options, so regardless which one you choose, you will enjoy it.


2. Which is the most realistic masturbator? (Various)

This is another of those difficult questions to answer. Why? Because "realistic" can mean anything you want it to mean. It can mean that its labia looks real. It can mean that the material feels like real flesh. It can mean that the texture feels like a real vagina feels. It can mean... well you get the idea. What is a "realistic" toy for me can be a total thud with you and vice-versa. For example, one of the most realistic toys in the market is the Meiki Maria Ozawa which a lot of people find too soft and not stimulating (I do not own a Maria Ozawa). Other guys will go 100% behind their trusted Fleshlight Vortex, which for me is the closest Fleshlight has gotten to a realistic texture (I haven't ordered the Bookworm, which looks promising).

That said, in MY opinion, three of  the most realistic masturbators are the Venus Real, the Meiki ZXY, and the Meiki Chika Eiro. Their textures are very organic - no straight tunnels, no extreme nubs or ribs, and no teeth or unnatural structures. Their stimulation level varies from the low (Real) to the medium high level (ZXY). There are many toys that feel realistic - Succubus 2D Wave, Lilith Uterus, Monster Kakusei, Sujiman Kupa Roa (review pending), Satori (review pending), and even the much maligned Fleshlight Lotus and Original textures - that it is almost impossible to declare a single winner on the realistic toy. After all, real pussies are different from each other...

3. "I bought toy X and didn't like it!" (Various)

I get this back on comments, emails and private messages all the time. The person reads one of my reviews, buys a toy I liked, then he doesn't like it. (The good thing is that nobody had blamed me of his decision... yet!)

Well, there are a few things I need to say about this situation:

• Give the toy a few tries. Toys and our penises need some time to get used to each other - the famous "break-in" period. When I review a toy, I make sure that I use it at least 3 times before I review it. Sometimes it has taken me more than 5 uses to make up an opinion about a toy. So, get to know your toy before dismissing it to the recycle bin. Use a different lube / lotion. Change the quantity of lubricant. Vary the speed of masturbation. All those factors can make the worst toy a cool one to play with. I could not appreciate my Fleshlight Vortex until after I used it 12 times!
• Have toys of different types. Do you know what DGS is? If not go here. DGS happens whenever your penis gets used to the pressure from your hand - but a similar effect can happen when your penis gets used to a toy's consistency or texture type. If you only use Fleshlights and suddenly change to a meiki, you will feel like fucking air because meikis are way softer and have a lower intensity than the Fleshies. If you are used to meikis and change to a Toys Heart toy, you will feel like fucking a sandpaper because the material used by ToysHeart is more rubbery and firm. You avoid that by having different toys with a variety of textures and firmness levels. Have a mix of realistic, smooth and highly intense toys and cycle them on a daily or weekly basis.
• Be creative with your toys. Use two toys during the same session, alternating between them. Twist the toy, so your penis get different stimuli. Create games with them, like pumping to the beat of music or challenging yourself to last certain time before cumming. Sometimes being creative with a toy helps you to discover new things in them and make that toy you despise into your favorite. One example - my FL Maze. It is a weird texture, a hit-or-miss type. But when I had a dual toy session with the Maze and the Forbidden, I realized the Maze felt different. It was a hit. Now, whenever I use the Maze, I combine it with a smooth texture like the Forbidden or the Original, so I feel something completely different when I stick my penis in one of the toys.
• Be gentle the first time. Like in real dates, if you go too rough on the first time, it won't end well. If you are using a toy for the first time, be gentle with it. Apply more lubricant than usual to "cure" the inside and allow your penis to slide easier into a new toy. Go slow, so you can feel the texture. Enjoy the ride. 

Well, I have a few other questions I will leave to a future post.
