The Tantus Vamp came out around Halloween of 2009 and was inspired by Twilight.

Before I go on I just want to say officially for the record Twilight “vampires” are not vampires. Vampires don’t sparkle. The creatures in Twilight are more like emo faeries. Yes, I said it. I haven’t read the Twilight books, though I have (ashamedly) seen the (horrible) movies that are out due to a good friend who dragged me to the latest one. I’m not a fan.

Yes, the Vamp is made to be like a Twilight “vampire’s” cock: pale and sparkly and cold (Silicone retains temperature well, so you can pop it in the fridge or run it under cold water to cool it down for that “fun” necrophilia vampire feeling). So, not being a fan of Twilight, why did I get the Tantus Vamp to review? Well, it’s f’ing awesome. Seriously.

I’m all about fabulous sparkly things (the dildo, not the “vampires”) and so when Fascinations offered me the Vamp to review I couldn’t resist it! It doesn’t really sparkle as in glitter it rather shimmers kind of like the way snow catches the light, or crystals of any sort. If you’ve ever used shimmer body mist it’s that same kind of shimmer, mostly-there-but-sometimes-not kind of shimmer. It is awesome. Don’t take my word for it, here’s a video by Tantus showing off the shimmery sparklyness:

In addition to the awesome color it is also made by Tantus which in and of itself is enough to make me want to try it. Tantus uses their own specially formulated blend of 100% medical grade silicone and is one of the top producers of silicone (and aluminum) toys out there, in my opinion. I have written a number of Tantus reviews, including a recent one of a dildo somewhat similarly shaped the Deuce 2.

Silicone is awesome because it is hypoallergenic, non-porous, phthalate free, and generally body-friendly. It won’t make your insides burn when you use it⁰¹, it can be completely sterilized (see care instructions below) and therefore used in any orifice of any person as long as you sterilize it between people and moving from the back- to the front-door. While silicone toys do tend to be more expensive they are well worth the price because, unlike cheaper materials, they will last forever as long as you take care of them⁰².

I think the Vamp is an excellent size, a little larger than average perhaps, but large enough to satisfy those who enjoy larger toys and small enough for those relatively new to toys or penetration to use. The base makes it very easy to hold on to while using it solo or with a partner and the flared base makes it great for anal play or use within a strap-on harness.

Vamp really is a realistic-looking dildo, aside from the sparklyness and the extremely pale color. It has a wonderful realistic head as well as veins that run along the shaft, not so many that it is unrealistic or uncomfortable, just enough to be aesthetically pleasing. While the shaft is only slightly curved it still does provide some fabulous g-spot stimulation due to the shape of the head.

It’s really just a great dildo in general, but if you are also into Twilight (and it’s fine if you are, I’m not judging just stating my own opinions!) it would be easy to use this during a sexy “vampire” roleplay, and since it is harness-compatible, shareable, and able to be stuck in the fridge to cool it down below body temperature there are many ways to use it in that regard.

A big huge thanks to Fun Love for sending me a Vamp to review!

1. Yes, I’ve had this happen with jelly toys, which is part of why I stay away from them! [↩]
2. I have a much loved silicone dildo that I bought eight plus years ago and it still looks as good as any of the other newer ones I own [↩]

I keep wanting to pronounce this toy yee-ro like the delicious Greek sandwich, but it is actually named after the action you’re supposed to be able to do with it, gyrate, so it is supposed to be pronounced jy-ro. This makes much more sense, of course, but isn’t nearly as amusing.

Like all Nexus toys Gyro is made from 100% medical-grade silicone and is an amazingly soft and silky silicone like Nexus seems to be known for (or at least is known for in my mind). Their silicone is different than that I have encountered in any other company. Since it is silicone you can share it between partners and orifices as long as you sterilize it between them (going from vagina to anus is okay but do not go the other way around without sterilizing it first!), see care instructions below for further details.

The Gyro is meant to be a hands-free prostate stimulator, though works wonderfully as a g-spot stimulator on a female body as well. Nexus even has a neat how to use the Nexus Gyro guide on their site in case you’re not quite sure. Basically, it has a very firm round base which enables you to sit on it and rock your pelvis around to get more than the usual insertable stimulation without having to use a hand to thrust it inside of yourself.

How does it work? Very well, actually. The delightful curve of the toy hits just the right internal places. I’ve used it on both Onyx and myself, both thrusting and rocking and it is quite exceptional. I don’t think I’ve encountered any other dildos that are made for this kind of hands-free gyrating stimulation.

It is just slightly over average thickness and shorter than a lot of other toys because it is made to be inserted and rocked upon rather than thrusted, though it can be thrusted with as well. For those size queens who enjoy thicker and/or longer toys Nexus also makes the Gyro Extreme.

Since the base is so round and bulbous (about 2 1/2 inches in diameter! Not to be inserted) it is uncomfortable to keep it inserted or wear it for very long periods of time. Nexus also has considered the needs of those who would prefer to use something like the Gyro as a plug and created Silo.

A big thank you to Nexus for providing me with the Gyro!

Now, I am an avid chocolate fanatic, but I was still underwhelmed with the name of Nomi Tang’s Better than Chocolate in general, as if chocolate would automatically win over normal vibrators? Sorry, no, my cunt would choose getting off over chocolate just about any day of the week barring soreness or other impeding factors. The name aside I was intrigued by it’s ability to be used in a shower or bath and the innovative control strip used to set the vibration pattern. Unlike other reviewers I was able to get off with it and therefore it has strong enough vibrations for me, but being able to get off with it is only one part of the puzzle.

BtC comes in a small and elegant white box with a slip-cover and reminds me very much of other luxury toy packaging such as LELO or Njoy. The toy is presented well in the box, nestled in a divider and includes a product manual and white velvety bag beneath it. The storage bag is a little strange for the toy, in my opinion, the drawstring is on the long side rather than the short side of it and barely larger than the toy itself, which makes it odd to close.

The controlls of BtC really are fantastic. Instead of buttons or switches like most vibrators it is controlled by a touch strip. Onyx remarked that it’s what Apple would make if they weren’t prudes, of course. Well, it does have one power button on the opposite tip of it’s diamond-like shape which simply turns it on and off, very handy to have and much easier than having to cycle through the vibration patterns like some other toys require you to do.

There is a little Nomi Tang logo on the touch strip which lights up blue when the toy is turned on. A touch to the opposite end of the touch strip and the logo turns red indicating it is locked, and when there is water or lube covering the touch strip the logo turns purple indicating it has auto-locked. A touch over the logo on the strip changes the vibration pattern and depending on the pattern the light blink. By stroking your finger up or down the touch strip when it is not locked you can increase or decrease either the vibration strength or pulse speed depending on the vibration pattern. BtC has three vibration patterns: constant and two pulses.

The manual gives you all of the needed information, such as how to operate the unique controls of BtC, what the different colors mean, vibration pattern information, various tips, and that it can be submerged in water up to one meter (three feet), which is really quite awesome. I have used it in the bath a few times and it had no water or damage to the battery compartment when I did. I did notice some odd behavior when submerged, however. It would occasionally unlock on it’s own while under water even if I had manually locked it, causing the vibration pattern to change mid-use which was mildly annoying.

While I was able to get off with it, as previously mentioned, I wouldn’t say it was nearly as satisfying to play with as other toys. The vibrations just aren’t that strong, though they were stronger than I expected. If you don’t need much in the way of strength, however, you wouldn’t have a problem.

I was really disappointed that a vibrator of this elegant unique design and high luxury-toy price is not rechargeable. It is powered by two AAA batteries which directly contributes to it’s vibration strength or lack thereof. If it was rechargeable (or less expensive) I think that would fix the problems I have with it and make it that much more fantastic of a product.

This is the first of many Nexus reviews, a wonderful company specializing in anal toys and g- or p-spot stimulation. While there are some toys in their line which don’t quite work with a female anatomy the majority of them are unisex (including a super sexy new stainless steel toy that is still “coming soon.” Want!). The GPlay Trio is an excellent anal starter kit, both to introduce you to Nexus in general and for any anal beginner.

All three toys are made of a 100% medical-grade silicone sleeve covering a long inserted vibrator with controls on the bottom. The silicone is incredibly smooth and silky, quite unique to Nexus toys, and somewhere between the usual matte and smooth silicone types. The vibrator can be removed for ease of cleaning (see care instructions below), but without the vibrating bit inserted the plugs are pretty useless as they’re not stiff enough to insert. The small and medium plugs have one vibration setting and the large plug has five, all controlled by a single power button on the base.

The shape and size of each of these are excellent. I especially love the base, something I tend to talk a lot about in my anal toy reviews as I far prefer oval or long rectangular bases to circular ones. These bases fit snugly between the cheeks and make the plugs extremely comfortable to wear. The only thing I would want to change to make these perfect is to make the neck slightly longer, they have a tendency to slip out if not paid attention to, especially the smaller two. The curved head makes for excellent g-spot stimulation regardless of sex, and the curves of the plugs feel very nice when thrusting.

Having three identically shaped plugs makes me feel a little like Goldilocks: “this one’s too small… this one’s too big… ahh, just right.” Though that’s not completely accurate, the small one is a bit too small, but the large and medium are both perfect depending on the situation

As I said, the small purple plug is a little too small for most experienced anal enthusiasts but is delightfully adorable and completely non-threatening so this would be the perfect beginner plug set for someone interested but perhaps a little daunted by the idea of sticking something up the backdoor. It really is about the size of a single finger, which is nice for warming up in theory but I’d rather just use my finger. We’ve only used the purple plug a few times preferring to skip it and go right for the larger ones since it is so tiny.

I like to use the medium red plug as a warm-up plug more than the purple one. It stays in much easier and is that wonderful in-between size that Goldilocks likes to tell us of, it is rarely too big or too small. This is probably both mine and Onyx’s favorite of the three. The large black plug is still smaller than some other anal toys I own, but is also often too big to go to immediately. Since it, like all the plugs, is more elliptical than round even though it is somewhat thick it still feels smaller than other toys with comparable thickness.

The Electrosex Torpedo Plug is the second of two accessories I received to go along with my Electrosex Deluxe Power Box. The other accessory was the Electrosex Pleasure Clamps. Unlike the Pleasure Clamps and the Torpedo Plug is a dipolar toy. However, before I go any further, a little on electrosex play.

Basically electrosex toys stimulate beneath the surface rather than on the surface like most toys and massagers and the like. An electrical current is passed through the body between two contact points in order to electrify the muscles underneath. It feels very much like a deep tissue massage at the lower levels, though it can produce painful sensations as well.

Zeus recommends not to play with any of their electrosex equipment above the waist or if you “have a pace maker, have epilepsy or other neurological disease, are pregnant, have heart disease, while driving or operating equipment,” or “near any metal objects such as piercing jewelery, rings, bracelents, or metallic IUDs.” Zeus recommends the first bit to save their own asses for selling such equipment, I believe, it can be used above the waist as long as the current doesn’t pass through the chest cavity as even at a low voltage there is risk of interfering with heart function.

Both the pads which came with the Power Box and the Pleasure Clamps used two separate connector points in order to complete the circuit for the electrical current to pass between. If one of the pads or clips was connected to your skin and the other was not you would not feel the electricity due to the incomplete circuit.

The Torpedo Plug, as I mentioned before, is a dipolar toy, which means that it contains both sides of the circuit and does not require a second connector to complete it. This makes it less complicated than the other two I have reviewed and also safer. Since it is dipolar you don’t have to worry about the current passing the chest cavity or any of that nonsense unless you use it in a way it is not intended for. You always want to make sure the power is off before inserting or removing the toy, of course.

It is made out of plastic and metal, both of which are both non-porous and phthalate-free, it can be sterilized and therefore shared between partners and orifices. This works well in either the cunt or anus, but never use it in the anus then the cunt without cleaning it between.

It’s really not that big, about the length of a finger and the width of a fat thumb, and about the same shape too. It’s not actually round, but rather oval in shape. This makes it unintimidating for both the anal novice or the electrosex novice. The idea of shoving something large that would transmit electricity within me is so much more scary than this tiny little toy. Zeus does make a large version of the plug which is slightly thicker and double the length.

The only thing that bothers me about the size and shape of it is the base, which is teeny tiny. I worry that a greedy asshole would easily suck it up inside. While the cord could be used to extract it should that happen (though that’s a very very bad idea) I would prefer to use a condom or something on the toy which could be used in an emergency. However, since the current is not able to pass
through a barrier like latex that is not possible.

Now, what does it feel like? Well, the electrical current stimulates the muscles of the chosen orifice and makes them contract. This can be extremely pleasant on the lower settings, I’ve heard it compared to being fucked but didn’t make that association when I experienced it. On the higher settings it can feel like an extreme cramp, very painful and not at all pleasant. I highly enjoyed it, especially anally, I found that using it vaginally I experienced less of a sensation and had to turn the Power Box up higher to get the same level of stimulation.

Not all butt plugs are created equal. I’ve been spoiled by plugs like Njoy Pfun and LELO Bob whose bases are made to nestle perfectly between butt cheeks, making wearing the plugs pleasurable and not making the skin of my ass right around my asshole sore. While the Sidekick 1 is a nice size and shape the round base just makes it awkward for any type of wear.

I should note, however, this is a personal preference and, I think, highly dependent on the size of one’s derrière. Since I’m a large person all around and have quite a large ass I think this makes it even more uncomfortable than if my butt was smaller. Oblong bases are far more comfortable in general for any sort of long-term wear, but your level of discomfort with a round base may be far different than mine.

Luckily, you don’t have to use this plug just for wearing. Since it is fairly small, an excellent starter-plug either generally for beginners or while working up to a larger plug or other anal toy. I have fairly large hands and it’s not much longer than my middle finger and about the width of two fingers.

The first little bloop of the toy has a curve to it which is quite aesthetically pleasing, but I could not really notice it while it was inside me, it felt like any other straight plug, but that’s not a bad thing. The second teardrop-shaped section of the plug is the largest section, and quite enjoyable while inserting or thrusting. I found the neck is a little short for wear as well, but we’ve already established this plug isn’t for wear. Because the base is thick and fairly big for a small toy it is easy to hold on to which makes thrusting with this little plug fairly enjoyable as well.

The Sidekick is made out of 100% medical-grade silicone so it is non-porous, phthalate-free, and can be sterilized (see care instructions below). Silicone is one of the most body-safe materials for toys to be made out of, but it does attract lint and stray hair like nobody’s business so it’s always advisable to store in a bag or other safe place, and wash both before and after use. Silicone also retains temperature so you can run it under cool or warm water to attain the effect you desire.

Despite my annoyance with the base I actually really like this plug. While the Pfun Plug is by far my favorite plug ever, this plug is half the price and is quite enjoyable for what it is.

The Sidekick 1 is so numbered because there is also a Sidekick 2 which is longer and slightly thicker, so if you are attracted to this plug but think it is a little small for your anal experience level I would suggest taking a gander at that.

The Tenga Double Hole is made to be a pre-lubricated, one-time-use, disposable toy. While it is made to be disposable you can actually use it more than once, but if you want to do so you will need to use a condom with it since you will not be able to properly clean and sanitize the semi-porous TPE insert. Even if you do use a condom with it the insert is not designed to withstand multiple instances of vigorous use, so you can get a half-dozen orgasms out of it if you’re lucky, though that is better than most one-night stands.

Unlike other disposable Tenga toys the Double Hole has, not just one but two holes (as one might assume from the name), a “sweet side” and a “bitter side.” Tenga actually avoids comparing the Tenga holes to human holes, preferring to say that their toys offer a different and superior sensation to these natural orifices. However, the comparison is pretty abundant on just about every other retail website and is easy to infer–two holes, one tighter than the other, what else are you going to think of?–so I’m going to mention it anyway.

The “bitter side” has 63 nubs, though I’m unsure how much the number of nubs really changes anything (maybe because it’s shorter?) and is said to be reminiscent of anal sex, or perhaps a very tight cunt, so it is therefore tighter than the “sweet side” which is said to mimic vaginal sex, sort of. Yes, Tenga also has a product which seems to imitate oral sex, the Deep Throat. The “sweet side” has 73 nubs (a whopping 10 more than the “bitter side”) and is supposed to be more of a gentle grip and suction.

Since the holes are completely separate you could use the Double Hole twice, or switch between the two holes multiple times the way you shouldn’t ever do with a real cunt and ass (going from cunt to ass is okay but you don’t want to go from ass to cunt without changing/putting on a condom).

The outside of the cup is made of ABS Plastic while the insert which makes up both the holes is made of TPE or thermoplastic elastomer, a material that is body-friendly as it is phthalate-free, but it is semi-porous so it can harbor bacteria. Tenga products are actually made from all recycled plastics, so those concerned about the environmental impact of disposable toys can at least be happy about that. They also make a non-disposable version, the Tenga Flip Hole.

Since I don’t have a cock with nerve endings attached and all that junk it was actually Onyx who tested out the Double Hole, so he is going to tell you a little more about that experience:

First up in my testing was the sweet hole, described by Tenga as a hole that “gently clings to your penis”. My first impressions were that it was very similar to the Squeeze Play, but without the delightful suction that the squeeze play provides. The sensation was nice, but not overwhelmingly so and not pleasant to the same level as some male masturbators I’ve tested. Also I was somewhat distracted by the fact that every time my penis went in, a large bubble would bulge out the other end. This bubble apparently did no harm and caused no difference in sensation, but it was definitely kind of weird and distracting.

Moving on to the Bitter side which Tenga promises will “firmly tighten” around my penis I was in for a different experience. The Bitter hole is by far the tightest masturbation sleeve I’ve ever used and what can I say? Tightness can be GOOD! The sensation using the bitter hole was far more intense for me and far more pleasurable and I had to start restraining myself from climaxing too soon, wanting instead to spend some time enjoying the sensation. Also, while using this hole there were no weird bubble issues, which helped me focus more. When I did finally allow myself to orgasm, it was surprisingly intense, quite a bit more than I’m used to using masturbation sleeves.

There are a couple more ways you can try to enjoy this toy that I didn’t have the chance to test out. One option is to use a dildo or vibrator in whichever hole you’re not using for additional tightness. I suspect this would work better for me if I was using the sweet side, as the bitter side was already plenty tight. Also if you have a male partner and which to share this toy with him it is possible, though possibly awkward for you both to use the toy at the same time, each using different holes.

So while my experience with the sweet side was ok, but somewhat lackluster, my enjoyment of the bitter side more than made up for it, so I give this toy 4 lotuses

Thank you so much Toy Demon for giving me the chance to get to know the delightful Tenga Double Hole.

I enjoy anal play. A lot. With the right relaxation, lubrication, communication, and patience it can be absolutely wonderful. Thus I was super excited when Tantus sent me a B-Bomb to review. I really wanted to love it, and I did… mostly.

Specs

What’s not to love with Tantus’ own blend of premium platinum medical-grade silicone? It’s hypoallergenic, non-toxic, and can be completely sterilized so you can share silicone toys⁰¹ with a partner once sterilized. To sterilize see care instructions below.

I recently read some complaints about the squishyness of silicone, and to that I can only say that I enjoy the texture, it’s much less squishy than jelly (which is yucky anyway and you don’t want to put it in your body without a condom⁰² ), but obviously not going to be as hard as plastic, steel, or glass. I find Tantus’ silicone to be harder than some other blends.

Like many Tantus toys the B-bomb comes with a removeable vibrator that sticks right up the hole in the toy’s base. It is a one-speed bullet vibe that, since it’s removeable, you could also use separately from the plug on other areas that enjoy vibration or with the plug if you enjoy anal vibrations. Also, Tantus in all their wisdom has created a suction-cup attachment that you can get which fits into any of the slots in their toys made for bullet vibes, turning any bullet-compatible Tantus toy into a suction cup toy.

Use

The pointyness of the plug worried me when I first got it, but that’s where the squishyness of silicone comes in handy, since it’s not made out of a hard material the point is not noticeable after you put it in your butt. The point is actually a positive in the respect that it makes the B-bomb very easy to insert since it is a gradual taper from the point to the rounded body. I found with a bit of non-silicone lube⁰³ the B-bomb slides in nice and easy.

I thought the size and shape was extremely pleasurable, not too big but not too small either. It isn’t an intimidating toy in either respect which makes it great for beginners and is a great warm-up toy for those more experienced in anal adventures. The taper near the base helps it stay inside as any good butt plug should do, and that allows the sphincter to relax around it.

The problem I had with it, though–and what would change it from a three lotus rating to a four or even five–was the base. It is circular and fairly thick. While it is a very well made base I’m spoiled by my love for my Pfun Plug or Bob plugs which have bases that fit snugly between the ass cheeks. Since I have a rather large booty it is actually uncomfortable for me to wear a plug with a circular base for any long period of time.

Most of Tantus’ other plugs do have a more rectangular base which makes wearing them for longer than a few minutes quite comfortable, such as the Ryder, Infinity, or Tulip. The toys that do have more wearable bases, however, do not vibrate. If you aren’t planning on wearing the B-bomb for long, are looking for a vibrating plug, and especially if you’re looking for something fairly small and non-threatening for thrusting it is a fabulous and well made plug that would be a wonderful addition to any anal adventurer’s toybox.

Zeus recommends not to play with any of their electrosex equipment above the waist or if you “have a pace maker, have epilepsy or other neurological disease, are pregnant, have heart disease, while driving or operating equipment,” or “near any metal objects such as piercing jewelery, rings, bracelents, or metallic IUDs.” Zeus recommends the first bit to save their own asses for selling such equipment, I believe, it can be used above the waist as long as the current doesn’t pass through the chest cavity as even at a low voltage there is risk of interfering with heart function.

Now, the clamps. They are just one piece, two clamps attached to a cord with a jack on the end, think kinky earphones that don’t go in your ears and clip on to tender pieces of flesh. The clamps are strong enough to hold on to wherever you put them but hardly pinch at all. These are especially made for genitals, with a very soft pinch they can hang from labia or scrotum or anywhere else you want to put them!

Do not put these on nipples! Did you read what I said above about the current not passing through the chest cavity? Where are your nipples? Pretty much right over the chest cavity? Yes. So, don’t do it. The temptation to use them on your nipples is very strong, believe me, I want to every time I play with them, but it’s a bad bad bad idea. Just say no.

They can have a tendency to get a little messy depending on where you put them (inner labia are not notoriously dry), so if they get bodily juices on them and you need to clean them just remember to disconnect them completely from the box before doing so. You should always disconnect them from the box while storing or cleaning, just in case.

The current that runs through them is very much dependent on the box that they are attached to, but these do conduct currents very well. I’ve used them in one slot and adhesive pads that come with the Deluxe Power Box in the other and comparatively they are just slightly weaker than the pads, but that’s not a bad thing considering the sensitive areas you may be putting them on.
