Inflatababe #4: Lil' Barbi

Months ago, a friend gave me a bunch of inflatable dolls for me to review for his sex store. I made all the reviews for his store, but I have not posted all of them here - so today I decided to share another one of these reviews with you. This one is about Nasstoys' Lil' Barbi Love Doll, a cute anime-inspired mini love doll with TPR vagina. Is it worth the $25 most stores charge for the mini inflatababe? Lets see...

Description

The Lil' Barbi is inspired on a generic pink-haired anime chick. You will find that most of the anime inflatable dolls sold in the US - Lil' Barbi, Serika, Kimmi, Neiko, and others - have a similar pink "hair" design. As a generic anime girl, Barbi has big breasts and an innocent-aroused look.
The Lil' Barbi distinguish itself from the other anime girls by two things: her TPR vagina with a noduled canal and her size of just 20 inches tall. She is made for travel and marketed more as a masturbator with a cute body than a love doll - in great part because of its size.

Review

The look of the Lil' Barbi is cool. She looks like an anime girl should look - cute face, big breasts with erect nipples, and nice curves. The TPR pussy looks inviting, although the doll feels weird when grabbing her. I felt as if I would break the little doll just if I grabbed it too hard because my hand could encircle the whole waist of the doll as if I had a beer can. It is way softer than a regular masturbator, so you don't know if pressing more could create leaks on the doll.

Lil' Barbi is cute, but her TPR pussy suffers from the typical problem I had found with most inserts used in inflatababes: the damned thing is too tight! I was able to penetrate the Lil' Barbi pussy, but it was uncomfortable because of the tightness. I have what you can call an average penis and still, when I penetrated the insert, I felt my penis was going to explode due to the tightness of the sleeve. In fact, I could not finish my business while using the Barbi, so as a love doll / masturbator combo, for me was useless.

Besides that, the doll is cute to look and the seams are not too rough, so you can enjoy this little girl (if you have a pencil thin penis).

Score 

Looks: 4/5 (Not bad looking.)
Realism: 2/5 (Barbi is proportionate, but 20 inches tall? She would be better if she was larger.) Fuckability: 2/5 (Very tight hole)
Durability: 5/5 (So far, still holding air)
Inflation / Deflation: 4/5 (Pretty easy to inflate and deflate)

Total:  17 / 25

Verdict: The Lil' Barbi is a cute little doll, but it did not do it for me. I can use her as part of a fantasy with fairies or if I ever have a Gulliver - type fantasy, but regular use is out of the question. It is more of a novelty item than a functional masturbator / love doll and Nasstoys should think of creating / selling "Big Barbi" with the same design but in life-size proportions to compete with the Serika. Only then the $25 will be a good investment.

Lil' Barbi ready for you...

She is cute...

But she is very small when compared with Serika

Casquetero's Day of the Apocalypse

December 21st came and went and no apocalypse or doomsday happened! Were the Maya wrong? Did they made a mistake? Were we trolled by an ancient Mesoamerican culture?

Something tells me we were trolled... That is the Aztec Calendar!

Trolled or not, your friendly neighbor The Casquetero had some plans for the end of the World. First of all it was my birthday, so I planned an epic party. If the world was going to end on MY DAY, then I would go with a bang!

So, last week I contacted my FWB and reminded her about the "special occasion". We agreed on meeting on the 21st after we got out of our jobs, go to a restaurant, and later, I would enjoy my birthday gift...

I know the cake is a lie, but where is the red ribbon?

Well, the Maya missed the date for the end of the world, but they did try to fuck up my evening. My birthday present got sick with the damn flu - so no celebration for Friday. She wanted to fulfill her destiny and be sacrificed to the gods, but I could see she was not feeling well. Instead of going out that night and ending the evening with some doomsday sex, we ended eating some Korean BBQ takeout in her apartment, cuddled together while watching a chick flick on TV, ending the visit when the flu medicine began to kick in. I was resigned to spend my birthday night  alone, at home, fucking one of the dolls in the harem, feeling pissed on how things had turned, so I went to the subway station to go back to my apartment.

But Kukulcan (the Maya serpent god ) had another plans for The Casquetero! Arriving to the subway station, I got a call on my cell from one of my pals. He was in a club a few stops away and he remembered it was my birthday, so he called me. Right away, I took the subway and got there to meet with my pal and two unknown Luchadoras that kept us drinking and partying as if the world was going to end that night...

Purple Mask was ready for action! YES!!!

The world did not end on Friday, because I opened my eyes on the 22nd in an unknown place littered with empty tequila and rum bottles and a naked Luchadora lying next to me. As a perfect gentleman, I got my shit and left without saying a word. I don't remember how I got home, but I surely survived the Apocalypse!

Bought to you by Patron, Don Q,  Bacardi, and Beyond Seven condoms.

RPP 3.0 #34: Devon's Vibrating Pussy and Ass (RPP #86)

I had never considered the various "realistic" pussies and asses sold by companies like Doc Johnson because of the UR3 material. The only toy I had of this material was the Sasha Grey pussy and although a decent toy, it did not blow my head. The material is firm, which I liked, but the damn fruity smell drove me out of UR3 toys. I simply ignored these toys until some of you kept asking about some of the pussy and asses available on the market. The insistence of readers like Robbie (and his regular messages about the Brianna Banks pussy and ass) got me interested in these toys, but still I felt weird spending $70 - $80 in a toy that would be smelly, difficult to use in bed, and difficult to store.

It was the Black Friday sale from Pink Cherry that helped me to pull the trigger. They had a bunch of these toys for less than $35, so I bought three of them. One of them (and the most expensive of the three) was the Devon's Vibrating Pussy and Ass toy from DocJohnson. Is it worth the $100 that some retailers ask for it? Lets go to the review to answer that question.
  
General Description

The Devon's Pussy and Ass is a realistic looking toy. It has full scale dimensions - 10" x 8" x 3" - and weights about 5 pounds. It was molded to present "Devon" to be on her back, exposing her vagina and asshole. They toy allows penetration in both vagina and anus, but the holes share the same main tunnel. The texture is mildly ridged, allowing for control during your sessions. The holes on both vagina and anus are pretty small, so expect some ripping.

The toy has a vibrating bullet already installed, which can be removed relatively easily. The vibrator is one of those cheap variable speed types, requiring 2 AAA batteries to work. I removed the vibrator after the first use to allow for easier cleaning and decided to use other bullets in the future.


Review

As said before, I am not a big fan of UR3 because of the damned fruity smell. Fortunately, the smell disappeared after the second use - as well as the bright pink color of the pussy lips. Besides those two annoying things, the Devon P&A looks and feels extremely realistic. One of the characteristics I liked right after unboxing was the raised mound of the toy. Those details really help you to get in the mood to use a big chunk of rubber as your lover...

Now, using this toy can be slightly difficult. First of all, forget about using this heavy P&A as a stroker. It is too big and too heavy to use while seating down on a chair in front of your computer. This toy was designed to be used as a hands-free device, so use it like that! You can place it on top of a table or cabinet and go to town while standing up or put on your bed and do it missionary style. The weight and the material allows the toy to stay in place even when you pump hard.

One major complaint is the size of the tunnels. If you are just a little bit longer than "normal", be prepared to see your little friend popping through the open end of the tunnel at the top of the toy. Also, when you cum, must of the cum will shoot right out of that hole, so have cleaning measures ready.

The toy can feel very realistic when you use a thick lube, so be prepared to enjoy this toy. The bullet vibrator included with the toy is pretty decent, but for me, it feel annoying to receive vibration from only one side of my penis. I replaced the vibe with a double bullet, placing the extra bullet into the main tunnel (solving the issue of cum shooting out of the toy), and the session was incredible! I also played with the bullet placement, placing one inside the toys anus and the other in the "exit" side of the tunnel. It felt pretty awesome!

Cleaning the toy is easy, but we aware of how you move the toy to the cleaning area - cum will ooze from the holes at the minor provocation. To clean, just flush the holes with running water, dry and powder before storing.

Value: Medium
Preference: Medium - High

Total score:  34 / 40

Verdict:

I bought this toy for just $32 on the Black Friday sales. If that was the regular price, I would say that it is a must have - feels realistic, you can pound it, and it is a hands free device. The problem is that this toy has a regular price of at least $55 (source: Amazon) with some vendors asking as much as $100 for it. At that price, I would prefer a more realistic toy or one easier to play with. Still, if you can get this rubber pussy for up to $65, it is a cool toy to play with.

FYI:

For this review, I used the lube from the Meiki 008 (very thick) and some Gun Oil H2O. All sessions were hands free, placing the toy on the bed. 

Next: Missionary and standing did not do it for me, but this toy gave me an idea... Add a realistic pussy with the best breast toy in the market (busty Ai-Chan)... Put that together somehow... Stay tuned during the holidays!

RPP 3.0 #33: VerSpanken Bumps (RPP #85)

I already reviewed the Wavy texture of the VerSpanken, so today I share with you my experience with another of the textures: Bumps.
 
General Description
As I mentioned on the review for the VerSpanken Wavy, this toy has a very simple design. In this case, I used the Bumps weiners: a pair of bright green pillows covered in small, rounded bumps. The texture seems to be more intense than the purple wavy texture, but still manageable.

 

Review

For this review, I used the VerSpanken Bumps (foam version). Like the Wavy, the toy is easy to use - lube the toy, lube your penis and enjoy.

I used this toy as a stroker while watching one of my favorite Asian porn movies and the sessions were amazing. The bumps are more noticeable than the wavy texture, teasing constantly. Like the Wavy, the Bumps gives you total control of the stimulation - close the clam shell to experience full tightness or open it to have an epic teasing session. Go slowly to build up your orgasm or go fast and blast a quickie - your choice.

Again, this toy is messy as hell. Lube and cum will fly and you should prepare for cleanup. Some people will definitively hate that, but it is a small price to pay for a good, powerful orgasm.

Score:

Total score:  37 / 40

Verdict:

Like I said before, the VerSpanken is an interesting toy. It feels good and gives you total control of your session. Lube and cum will fly over the place, but still the cleanup will be totally worth it!

FYI:

For this review, I used Fleshlube Water and Honey Drops as the lubes. I did not have hands free sessions for this toy.

RPP 3.0 #32: VerSpanken Wavy (RPP #84)

One thing you discover when you collect hundreds of fake pussies and asses is that at some time, they begin to feel the same. The reality is that there are so many ways you can arrange bumps and ridges inside a silicone / gel / rubber tube until you start repeating yourself. Sometimes you want something different, something new. When I saw the VerSpanken line by Big Teaze Toys, I bought it right away. Simple to use, customizable, and easy to clean? Count me in!

General Description
The VerSpanken has a very simple design - a hard plastic clam with two detachable foam / rubber pillows that you lube and fuck. The product comes with the foam pillows in three different textures - wavy, bumpy, or smooth - each one with a different color. The textures by themselves are not that innovative, but the funny part is that you can exchange them to create your own combination of textures - smooth and wavy, bumpy and wavy, and so on. Say that you have the three styles of pillows (or wieners as they call them), then you have in theory six different toys thanks to the possible combinations. Not so bad, but the wieners are also available with a liquid fill. The Water Wieners have the same exterior textures, but the feeling is different and they can be heated or chilled - creating 66 different combinations! Add that you can use the toy as a stroker or hands free and this little toy promises a lot of good times.

Review

For this review, I used the VerSpanken Wavy (foam version). When you buy the VerSpanken, it comes with the selected texture in the foam version - the Water Wieners are sold separately.


Now, the toy is extremely simple to use - you lube your penis, lube the wieners and you are ready to go. Using it is when you have fun. As you will see on the multilingual instruction manual (as if you need an instruction manual!) , your imagination is the limit with this toy. You can use it as a stroker while watching porn, fix it on a surface or place it between the mattresses for some old-fashion  hands free fun. You can also have your partner use it on you, a very possible way to enjoy this toy because women will not feel intimidated, offended, or jealous by this toy because it really looks like a toy with all the bright purple.

If you are used to masturbation sleeves, this is going to be different. First of all, the VerSpanken is designed to feel tight, but you can modify the tightness by opening the clam shell and leaving it open or placing a rubber band on the open extreme. Second, you will feel the masturbator only in parts of your penis - just like when you use your hands. Depending on how you move the VerSpanken, you will feel slightly different sensations on your penis' head or shaft... and that is good for a guy who has lots of toys! The toy gives you total control over your session, allowing to build up powerful slow stroking orgasms or equally powerful quickies. The wavy texture is not too intense, but rubbing these ridges on your penis head feels like heaven.

Be advised: this toy is MESSY. First of all, it is an open ended toy and lube will go everywhere. Also, when you cum, guess what, you will be cumming everywhere too! Good thing it is really easy to clean - you can use regular soap and water to clean it - and you don't even need to take the wieners off.

Score:

Value: High

Total score:  38 / 40

Verdict:

The VerSpanken is an interesting toy. Simple, compact, and allows for creative uses either on your own or with your partner. It feels good during use and it basically allows you total control of your session. The major negative point of this toy is how messy it can be using it. Lube and cum will go all over the place, but still the cleanup will be totally worth it!

FYI:

For this review, I used Fleshlube Water and Honey Drops as the lubes. For the hands free sessions, I placed the VerSpanken between the legs of my custom heavy doll Monica.
