It’s been a while since my last sex toy review, so I thought I’d shake things up a little and do something a little out of the ordinary–for theNotice, at least. I tend to focus on non-realistic vibrators, but today, I’m reviewing a toy that’s both startlingly realistic and shockingly large.
I know that realistic toys aren’t everyone's cup of tea, so this review can be found under the cut. For those who venture on, I promise to pack this review with as many bad jokes as I can!
The cold, hard facts: See? I told you there’d be bad jokes behind the cut.
The Vixen Maverick is made from the brand’s signature dual-density VixSkin, and it’s almost uncanny valley levels of realistic.The firm core gives the Maverick great structure while a soft, squishy outer layer mimics human flesh. (Spoiler: I’m a fan, and all of the friends that I’ve encouraged to touch my VixSkin have been, too.)
The Maverick is 7″ long and 2″ wide, and it’s made from 100% premium grade silicone. It has a flared suction cup base that makes it easy to a) use manually, b) stick to a smooth surface, or c) use with a harness of adequate girth. I like multi-tasking tools whether they’re makeup multi-sticks or suction-based dildos, and I really like that Vixen has switched their VixSkin toy moulds to produce everything with a suction cup.
(My bright pink Mustang was made just before the switchover, and yes, I’m still sad about it. I don’t even have a smooth-finish bedroom wall anymore so I have nothing to stick toys to and watch them flop around hilariously, but the mere fact that I can’t stick it to things makes me want to stick it to things.)
In addition to its size, the Vixen Maverick has incredible detailing. It has a defined head and a prominent foreskin ridge, with a “swollen” middle and slightly thinner root. For realism, you really can’t do better than VixSkin – even just artistically, they’re kind of stunning.
