ANME
The twice-annual ANME Founders
Show kicked off its first show of
2019 in a two-day run with a new
layout that impressed exhibitors and buy-
ers alike. The event took place January
13-14 in Burbank, California.
While the show featured booths in the
ballroom of the hotel and the main hall
in the convention center at the Marriott
Burbank Airport, the tented exhibition
space in the parking lot moved to the
location previously held by the lunch tent.
The new layout allowed for a straight
walk from one area to another, making it
easier for buyers to cruise the show.
CalExotics brought back its beachy
theme at the front of its booth with a tiki
hut and surfboards. Guests could sip
on tropical drinks while learning of the
additions to the California Dreaming
range.
The Palm Springs Pleaser is a bendable
vibe that holds its shape and boasts
10 functions. “There is also a booster
button that takes it to the highest level
of vibration in an instant,” said Nichole
Grossmann, director of marketing for
CalExotics.
The Surf City Centerfold has a
thumping head for G-spot stimulation,
and the Sierra Sensation and Hollywood
Hottie are compact vibes that feature the
booster button.
CalExotics also added to its Her Royal
Harness line with the Royal range of
Queen, Duchess and Empress harnesses
in a new soft material available in red and
silver. The new harnesses come with three
O-rings.
Also new is the Tickle Me Pink line, a
collection of entry-level BDSM items in
hot pink and packaged in clear tubes that
come with tabs so they can be hung on
pegs on slat walls.
“It’s a new, fun way to merchandise
some common items,” Grossmann said.
The company also expanded its
Packer Gear collection, making them
out of silicone and in four skin shades.
The harnesses also come in larger sizes,
accommodating up to a 3X.
A new tech item from the manufacturer
debuted in the Remotes collection. The
new Petite Bullet and the Panty Teaser
each come with a wristband remote
control that looks like a watch.
