Fantasy gag - mouth gag discontinued by Tantus - review by Falsepast

Packaging/Storage: The Fantasy Gag comes in a 9 x 5 1/2 clear, plastic clam shell case that displays the gag with the strap beneath it. The front states it is a, "100% ultra-premium silicone Fantasy Gag" to "satisfy your oral fixation", and has informs that it is nontoxic and 100% phthalate free. The back restates it is 100% ultra-premium Tantus silicone and says, "Because silicone is tasteless and odorless, it is ideal for insertion in the mouth. The Fantasy Gag is perfect for those fixated on oral pleasures. The straps are leather and snap off so you can wash the silicone: it's boilable, bleachable in a 10% solution, and dishwasher safe. Velcro on the straps allow for maximum adjustment for head size and ease of fitting." with an image of the gag to the left.
Immediately below, there is a bit of information speaking of how great Tantus silicone is followed by 2 warnings. The first warning says, "Do not wash leather straps; they are not waterproof. Before cleaning the gag, unsnap and remove the leather straps. If necessary, you may spot clean straps with a leather cleaner." The last warning is a legal warning stating that Tantus can not be held responsible if the user of the product is hurt or dies from use. Inside the packaging, the gag sits above the straps which are tied with a rubber band. The package is great for storage, since it is a clam shell it does not need to be cut open.

Looks: This gag comes in the shape of a penis head along with 2 straps with velcro and buttons for use. The toy measures 27 inches long when it is assembled. The gag itself is 5 1/4 inches in circumference, and about 3 inches in length. It has a dip beneath the head, which helps in making it appear more realistic. This may come with slight imperfections, especially around the slots on both sides of the penis head where the straps are meant to be inserted. Both straps are individual and easy to insert in the slots provided to assemble the toy. They each have a bit velcro at one end and 2 metal buttons on the other end. The buttons secure the toy to the straps while the velcro allows you to adjust the tightness of the gag and holds it in place.

Feel: One of the things I noticed immediately with this gag is the difficulty of adjusting the velcro straps as you tighten the toy more and more. Velcro may stick together well, but it is definitely not the ideal type of security for gags. Another issue is the bit of discomfort felt near the cheeks. This is caused by the bit of excess material near the button. Finally, one very notable thing is that this gag may be an issue for those with very sensitive gag reflexes. The penis head-shaped gag has very little length to it, but I still found myself feeling as though I was about to gag from time to time. I also noticed that if tightened a lot, opening your mouth may cause the gag to go in deeper, causing gagging. The penis head is definitely attractive to looks at and adds to the excitement of using this gag, however it definitely could have been made better.

Smell/Taste/Sound: There is a leather scent to the toy, due to leather straps, however for some reason it did not smell as strong or attractive as the leather that came with the Aslan silicone gag ball. There is no taste to the gag at all, which is definitely a plus. In terms of noise, the gag should block out most sounds if worn properly.

Material/Cleaning: The gag is made of silicone which is a 10/10 on the safety scale, while the leather straps score a 7/10. The silicone can be 100% sterilized by being boiled, or can be washed with soap and water. The toy comes with no information on washing the leather, however based on what I gathered from my Aslan toy's instructions, you may simply wipe it down with a bit of soap and a moist cloth. Remove any leftover soap with a moist cloth, then dry immediately. WARNING: these instructions MAY not work with these leather straps since it is from a different manufacturer, and does have a different scent. This leather may react differently than other leather for whatever reason.

I still like this gag, but I really wish I could have fallen in love with this one, I really do. Don't get me wrong, it is a pretty good gag, but the flaws prevented me from completely loving it. I things the worst thing about this toy are the straps, really hope to find another toy whose straps I can attach to this gag.
