The Aqua-King Fantasy Dildo is as handsomely imposing as its inspiration: the ocean-mastering king of glossy page and big screen fame, Aquaman. Its girthy head is just over 2 inches in diameter, and it towers at an impressive 9 inches tall. It’s patterned with scales and awash in sparkling green and gold swirls. The inkspill appearance of its marbled coloring is entirely unique because each one is made by hand.
I feel like I need to repeat myself for the uninitiated: the Aqua-King is over 2 inches thick and 9 inches long. Average sizing for dildos is around 1.5 inches in diameter and 6 inches long, similar to the average penis size. This fishy fuckable is big.
As a fan of Arthur Curry, a resident of ocean-framed Florida, and a friend of the artist behind the studio that made the Aqua-King (Uberrime Handmade Dildos), getting my hands on this toy was inevitable. Aptly, the Aqua-King was sent to me by SheVibe, a comics-themed online sex shop… This review was truly kismet!
Luckily, it’s been a pleasure to write.
If Atlantis was a lost dong instead of a city
The Aqua-King is among my favorite of Uberrime’s phallic designs. The hefty, arrow-like head is crowned by the first of three soft ridges that peak on the topside of the shaft for powerfully targeted stimulation. The shaft is scalloped with scales that were individually sculpted, a labor of love that’s partially obscured by the vividness of the silicone’s coloring.
There are a few very minor flaws in the scales; much like the suckers on Uberrime’s Dragon Claw, there’s a couple crannies that will need a little extra attention during cleaning, but they do nothing to mar the toy’s beauty. I’m especially fond of how the scales flower out at the top of the base, like a line of ribbon or fondant detailing on a cake.
The base itself is thicker and thus sturdier than most other makers’, as is the case for many of Uberrime’s dildos. As someone with cramp-prone fingers, this makes for an easier grip. I sometimes have a harder time getting the Aqua-King into a harness, but once it’s in, the fat, flat-bottomed base makes for an great foundation that helps balance out the dildo’s heft. And great Neptune, is this thing hefty!
Salt of the earth, squish of the sea
The Aqua-King is made of Shore 5A silicone, a soft density silicone that’s popular in fantasy dildos and squishier than dildos made by most “mainstream” manufacturers. (For example, most of the Blush Novelties dildos I own are around 10-15.) The Aqua-King Dildo can be bent in half, twisted up, or flopped about in a harness for vigorous pre-sex helicoptering.
This density was a great choice for the design. It’s a large toy, so the cushiony yield of its material makes it much more comfortable to be fucked with. It also prevents the ridging below the head from becoming abrasive notches; instead, they pop over your g/p-spot with every long thrust, firmly massaging rather than punishing your insides.
Almost all of the Uberrime toys SheVibe carries (most of them exclusives!) are made in this density, including the Dr. Manhattan, Deep Diver Tentacle, and Jellyfish 2.0.
Enough foreplay, how well does this fish fuck?
The Aqua-King is huge. Buster – the only person in this relationship that can take such a big penetration toy – calls it “cunt-stretching.” (This is a temporary sensation, of course; vaginas aren’t loosened by large object insertion.)
Buster frequently emphasizes to me that the Aqua-King Dildo’s angular head is beastly in the best way when being inserted. “You feel accomplished when [the Aqua-King] pops in past the head, like taking a butt plug,” Buster says. The head fits snugly behind their pubic bone, with the protrusions beneath the head stroking their vaginal wall like soft but insistent fingers.
The notches pop back over your pubic bone and g-spot with longer thrusts, a thumpy sensation I can feel when fucking Buster with it by hand. (This makes setting a pace – and sticking to it – much easier for me as someone who loses rhythm pretty frequently.) Though the Aqua-King lacks the pronounced curve typically associated with g-spot toys, its girth and crown ridges make for pretty easy g-spot stimulation.
