Gear Rabbit Sleeve, RAM Vibrating

Vibrating Bullets and Bela Clit Tickler
along with three new Silicone Dongs

Speaking of the right coast, other
pleasure product brands made the
trek to Vegas to meet buyers and put
their best products forward. East Coast
News displayed a number of brands
the award-winning distributor carries,
including items exclusive to ECN, such
as the One Night Stand from Evolved,
the entire Minx, Linx and Kinx line
from ABS Holdings and Banana Golds
condoms. The company also featured
items from manufacturers who are new
to the distributor, including Fleshlight,
Shots America, Uvee and Electrastim.
Perhaps most impressive was
Zumio, a vibrator that offers pinpoint
clitoral stimulation. This innovative
Pacific Northwest manufacturer
recently developed a second product,
Zumio Caress, that offers less intense
stimulation, giving consumers another
choice. Both models of the Zumio are
currently exclusive to ECN.
Xgen Products had a full booth
of products at ANE, thanks to the
distributor’s recent acquisition of
the brands Rabbit Company, Ovo
Lifestyle Toys, Drilldo and more. In
addition to the new lines, Xgen reps
also enticed buyers with its Latexwear
collection, as well as its Frederick’s of
Hollywood collection of vibrators and
other pleasure products. For men, Xgen
showcased its Zolo range, including the
new BlowPro, with automated action to
simulate a blowjob, and the Zeppelin, a
black obelisk that vibrates and rotates.
“We have the Phase 5 collection
of Ovo Lifestyles Toys, which is a
range of rechargeable vibrators,” said
Xgen President Andy Green. The new
range is a step up from Ovo’s battery-
operated line, he said, and features
improved designs and materials for
better vibrations.
Green also pointed out the new
items in the company’s Frederick’s
of Hollywood collection, including
the single-shaft stimulator that was
previously only included in kits.
“Retailers told us customers wanted
the option of purchasing the vibrator
separately, so we made that possible,
and increased the functions to 10,”
Green said.
One display that could not be
overlooked was the one for Rock Candy
Toys. Rock Candy made a grand entrance
with a candy store-themed booth that
highlighted the bright colors—aptly named
Bubble Gum, Cotton Candy, Cinnamon,
Blueberry and Grape Jelly Bean—used
on its 12 new products. The candy theme
continues with the products themselves,
with the new range featuring Gummy Balls,
Gummy Vibes, Lala Pops and more.
The entire collection, explained company
founder Keith, is meant to capture a
youthful market that has been ignored by
manufacturers and distributors recently.
“We have fresh new designs and fresh
new colors,” he said.
With Candy Stix (single-shaft stimulators
that boast five functions and three speeds),
Lala Pops that are external stimulators with
a ball on the end of the handle to stimulate
more surface area and Gummy Balls (bright
and colorful finger vibes), the line is easy
to display and is sure to draw attention on
retailers’ shelves and walls.
XR Brands also turned heads at ANE,
with six new lines and additional products
in several other existing ranges. One of
the most talked-about new lines is the
collection from adult superstar Jesse Jane.
The collection has six pieces molded
directly from her body and enhanced
with hand-painted detailing. The line is
completely made in the USA, as is the new
USA Cocks line. USA Cocks are realistic
dildos made with dual-density TPR for a
more lifelike feel. Another new line coming
soon is Rimmers, a series of anal plugs
featuring rotating beads to emulate the
feel of analingus. Each features a different
size and shape, but all are equipped with
a remote control, and waterproof silicone
construction. Also among the anal play
collections is Hosed, a series of extra-long
snake-like anal tools with suction-cup bases.
SexToyDistributing.com, the distribution
sister company to XR Brands, also had a
booth at ANE. Much of the space in that
booth went to showcase the capabilities
of the Saddle Deluxe sex machine from
Lovebotz.
