VNA, Doc Johnson Team Up for MILF in a Box Line
Doc Johnson and Vette Nation, the army of performers under the guidance of Vicky
Vette, have joined forces to create a line of signature strokers known as MILF in a
Box. The VNA Girls collection will include molded masturbators of stars Vicky Vette,
Julia Ann, Francesca Lé and Charlee Chase.
"Four years ago I walked into Doc Johnson and said 'Hey, take a chance on my
vagina,'” Vette said. “At the time, no company had ever molded a MILF before so it
was a gamble. It's refreshing to be partnered with a company that takes risks and
isn't afraid to listen to new ideas. MILF in a Box will be the first line of adult
masturbators that are truly travel-friendly, easy to store
and discreet. … Fans are going to be able to take my
pussy anywhere they like."
Chad Braverman, COO of Doc Johnson, said of the
collection, “We are very excited to work with Vicky Vette
again and to develop this new line with the VNA Girls.
Vicky is a powerhouse and has a phenomenal mind for
business. We could not think of a better entrepreneur to
partner with on launching this line.”
Production began first with adult film star Julia Ann
(pictured). The performer, who was awarded the AVN
MILF/Cougar of the Year award three of the past four
years and is a 2012 Legends of Erotica Inductee, was
molded at the Doc Johnson facilities in April.
“I am so excited to be molded by Doc Johnson. It has
been too long since I've had a new toy and this is incredibly exciting,” Julia Ann said.
“This is just the beginning of more incredible things to come.”
So far, Chase and Lé have also gone through the process. “It was very exciting to
be molded by Doc Johnson,” Chase said. “I cannot wait to dive into this process and
watch the MILF in a Box line develop from concept to finished product. I am honored
to have been selected. My 'box' in a box—how cool is that? LOL.”
“I am thrilled be a part of the new Doc Johnson line and am looking forward to
seeing what the end product looks like,” Lé said. “Doc Johnson is the best in the biz.
Molding was a trip ... it was like being covered in warm pudding.”
The lifelike UR3 strokers will feature a custom case for discreet and easy travel—
customers will literally be able to put their favorite MILF in a box and go.
The lifelike UR3 strokers will be unveiled at the July ANME Founder’s Show.

Love Candy by Kendra Revamps Packaging
Love Candy by Kendra has unveiled new packaging in time for summer. The Love
Candy collection of personal massagers—including the Curve, the rechargeable
Renew and the entire Slender Line—has been
redesigned with brighter, more dramatic packaging.
“We love the way the product leaps off the box now,”
said Marcus West, marketing director at Love Candy.
“It’s a cleaner look with better construction for
hanging and sitting on the shelf. We’ve honed the
creative and the practical to come up with a stronger
presentation overall and we’re really excited about it.”
The bigger toy images pop from a graphic white
leather background in the new artwork, and the outer
sleeves have been revamped to create a more modern
feel.
“We’ve gotten to know Kendra [Wilkinson] better
through being on her show Kendra on Top,” said Lucy
Vonne D’Olimpio, sales executive and resident ‘toy
whisperer’ at Love Candy. “This new style matches her
personality more accurately—fun, outgoing, glamorous. We’re all really happy with
the new style and direction.”
Retail stores can contact their Love Candy representatives to switch the old
packaging with the newer versions at any time. All Love Candy products shipping
now and going forward will feature the new look.
All Love Candy by Kendra products are guaranteed with a five-year replacement
warranty, and all personal massagers are phthalate free, latex free, fully
submersible in water, and come with faux leather cases that allow for discretion,
not to mention safekeeping.
New Strap-On Harnesses Available From Nasstoys
Nasstoys has debuted new strap-on harness designs that accommodate all types of
bodies, regardless of gender. Harness the Revolt and Harness the Moment are both
available in black or purple.
"It's well known that strap-ons aren't just for lesbian couples anymore," Nasstoys
Sales & Marketing Director Kathryn Hartman said. "The new Harness the Revolt strap-
on harness is made for men or women, and by
couples of any sexual persuasion. They are easy to
wear, easy to adjust, and will appeal to all types of
customers."
Harness the Revolt adjusts to comfortably fit men
or women of just about any size. It is made of
polyester fabric, similar to that which is found in
most swimsuits, and fits up to a 60-inch waist. With
the harness itself measuring 5 inches by 6.5 inches,
Harness the Revolt comes with a nylon carrying
case that can also be used for storage during travel
or between uses.
For the feminine shopper, Nasstoys also has
released the new Harness the Moment strap-on.
Made with soft, elegant velvet, Harness the Moment
features a corset design, which is fully adjustable, stylish and comfortable. It comes
with two interchangeable ring sizes for maximum compatibility and is available in black
or purple.
"Ladies will love the stylish look and soft velvet feel of Harness the Moment strap-
ons," Hartman added. "Though very feminine, Harness the Moment puts women in
control for the ultimate sexual empowerment."
Both Harness the Revolt and Harness the Moment strap-ons are compatible with
almost any dong but are specifically made to work with items from Nasstoys’ Whoppers
or Lifelikes collections. Retailers would do well to stock these new harnesses next to
where these dongs are displayed.
The new Harness the Moment and Harness the Revolt are available now. For more
information or to place an order, contact your local distributor. If you don't have a
distributor, email sales@nasstoys.com.
