Rock star Tina - traditional vibrator discontinued by Doc Johnson - review by shorejen9

Rock Star Tina is a bulged, silicone vibrator. The soft silicone shaft with three bubbles or bulges makes for quite a pleasurable experience. This vibrator would be great for solo or couple play from beginners to advanced users. The Rock Star Tina is not for anal play as its base is not flared for safety. Also size queens and power queens may not be satisfied with this vibrator. It is relatively quiet and compact so roommate situations could use this with some caution. Storage would be easy due to its size. It also would travel well in a purse or carry on bag.

The Rock Star Tina is made of silicone and plastic. The handle is hard plastic and is identical in color to the shaft. The shaft is made of food grade, latex-free silicone. There is a metallic silver plastic band between the shaft and handle that makes Tina sparkle. The silicone shaft has a little flexibility in it but is still rigid enough to withstand pressure for strong external stimulation. The three bulges on the shaft are quite enjoyable when used vaginally. The silicone finish is more of a matte and a water based lubricant should be used to reduce drag. Tina has a slight pleasant odor. It's almost like a baby powder smell and it seems to be lasting despite multiple uses and washings.

The Rock Star Tina comes in two colors: purple and teal. I have the teal Tina and boy is she gorgeous. The color is bold and rich and the plastic handle and silicone shaft match perfectly. Tina is about 7.25" in total length with about 4" being the insertable length. The circumference is 4.5" at its widest point across the bulge. Due to its size, Tina may not be a good choice for size queens. I love the size while it's not my largest vibrator by far, it is a very good size and the bulges feel wonderful. The Rock Start Tina would be good for beginners as its size would not be intimidating. Advanced users could also enjoy Tina because of the bulges. She provides a different feeling that advanced users may enjoy. This toy does make noise and I personally wouldn't recommend it for roommate use while your roommate is in the room. It is small enough that it can be easily stored in a drawer. When turned all the way up you can hear Tina through covers and in the same room but you cannot hear her through a closed door.

The Rock Star Tina has a turn dial type control on the bottom of the handle. You can adjust the vibrations to your preference. You simply turn the base of the handle to turn it on or up and turn it back down to adjust or turn off. This type of control gives some freedom to intensity but it does not have vibration patterns. Also the difference from medium to full is slight. This toy may not be suitable for power queens simply because it doesn't have the intensity some require.

Rock Star Tina is easy to care for. To clean her simply use warm water, mild soap and a soft cloth. You can also use your favorite toy cleaner or wipes like I do. Silicone toys should not be stored together unless in a protective pouch or container to avoid degradation. Be sure to use water based lubricants and not silicone for this same reason. Storage can be in a drawer or in a pouch or storage container.

Rock Star Tina comes in a plastic package that has a pretty tattoo like design on it. The container could be used for storage but it may be loud when opening or closing and it will take up a lot more room than Tina alone would.

I have used this toy a few times now. My first time using it I fell in love with the handle. It is a ball that mimics the bulges on the shaft. The handle is very comfortable and easy to hold especially when playing alone. It was not awkward at all. I found it most comfortable for my hand if I put it between two fingers with my palm wrapping around it.
