Mini bang snackbox - bullet discontinued by Don Wands - review by Ryuson

This cute, little bullet is a very basic toy. It's a rounded, oval shaped vibrator that is connected to a plastic controller by a cord. This is also sometimes referred to as an 'egg' type toy, but often 'eggs' are larger than bullets.

The small end of this toy is where the motor is housed. The intended use, especially because of the small size, is clitoral stimulation. You also can use it externally on the nipples, penis, testicles, or anywhere else that you feel needs a bit of extra attention.

While you can insert this vaginally, tugging it out by the cord runs the risk of shorting it out. It's bad for it, but if you're careful and mostly push it out with your muscles you should be able to safely do it occasionally. It has no g-spotting or thrusting capabilities.

This is NOT, NO WAY NO HOW anal safe. Please, do not insert this anally. It runs the same risk of snapping off while you're pulling it out as it does vaginally, but the vagina is a closed system while the anus is not. I don't want you all to have an embarrassing ER trip, so seek your anal kicks elsewhere.

If you're looking for your first toy to use as a couple this would be alright, but not great. The cute design, low price tag, and small size all make it appealing as something to pick up as an afterthought with your normal lube and condom purchase. While I would recommend something a bit higher quality and versatile, this certainly wouldn't be a bad choice, especially because if your partner throws it out the window you aren't down too much money.

If you're looking for a first toy in general, I really would go with something a bit more versatile. If you're really broke and want something that's small and feminine this would be alright, but I would recommend putting a bit more money towards your first toy if you can and getting something that is good for both internal and external play.

This toy 100% passes Ryu's dorm seal of approval. It's quiet enough that you can use it without worrying about people in the hall hearing you, and it's small enough to stash just about anywhere. It's not waterproof for shower fun, but it is super easy to clean and care for.

The Mini Bang Snackbox, and the entire Snackbox line, is made of hard plastic. They all come in bright colors, mainly pink and blue like this one. The colors are very bright, but they help to add to the playful appearance and theme of the line.

Plastic is rated an 8 out of 10 on the Eden Safety Scale. It is nonporous and body safe, meaning that bacteria can't get inside the surface and thrive and that it won't leak out any harmful chemicals like a lot of materials can.

Plastic doesn't clock a 10 on the Safety Scale because it can't be boiled. Silicone, metal, and glass can all be boiled to disinfect them. You still can disinfect plastic by wiping it down with a 10% bleach solution, which should be done every time you switch users to prevent the spread of bacteria and infection.

As far as rigidity goes, plastic is very firm. It has no give at all to it, though it doesn't FEEL as hard as glass or metal. This is a good thing with this bullet because it allows you to put as much or little pressure that you want.

The cord is made of rubber coated plastic. You should be able to disinfect the cord, but because I don't know exactly what it's made of I don't know how porous it is. Because it's not in direct contact with bodily fluids it should be fine, but if you're sharing with someone who has an STD I might not risk it.

The entire toy is very smooth. If your fingers get super lube-y or wet the bullet can get a bit hard to hold, along with the controller. This is not a huge problem because plastic doesn't have much drag so little lube is needed, but if you like to get things super slippery you might have issues.

In all, plastic is a great, safe material for all users. It's body safe and can be disinfected, and has little drag. It's also not a lint magnet at all, so you can store it just about anywhere.

This toy is a cute take on a very basic design. It's a small, round vibrator on a fairly long cord, and the cord is attached to a small controller where the batteries are stored. This is very similar to the only bullet I've found that's rumbly enough for me, the Eden Bullet. The main difference between these is that this one is about 100 times more adorable.

The cord that connects the bullet to the controller is about 2.5 feet long. It's certainly long enough for you to have freedom of movement, and at times I even feel like it's a bit TOO long. The cord is very securely attached to both the bullet and the controller.

The bullet is about 2 inches long (a bit shorter than my thumb) and 1 inch around. This is a good size to use for both fairly pinpoint and broad clitoral stimulation. You can also use it length-wise to stimulate your labia if you tuck it into your panties, which was what I found to be the best use.

The connected controller is 4 inches long and 1.25 inches wide. It's a very comfortable fit in my hand, and I don't think that anyone will feel that it is too big. If you have giant hands it might feel a bit small, but still will be perfectly useable. On the controller is a small dial that you turn to change the settings with a small, girly star.

While I call it girly, there's no shame in a guy getting this toy for external stimulation. It doesn't scream "Manly man," but anyone who would be seeing it shouldn't be someone who will tease you about sex toys, anyways.

The small size and shape of this toy make it great to stash anywhere. You can travel with it easily, just be sure to take the batteries out first. If you leave this in plain site it does look like a sex toy, even if it is adorable.

In all, this cute toy is a great design. It's very classic, and the cute colors and embellishments make it especially attractive to beginners who don't want something 'scary.' While it's not the most pinpoint or versatile toy, it's a 'classic' for a reason.

And here's a detail shot of the bullet:

When it comes to functions, this toy works but doesn't blow me away. There are no definite functions on this one, but there is still a lot of variation in power. There are also no patterns, which are always something I appreciate in a toy.

You control the little Snackbox toy by twisting the cute dial. It has markings on it to tell you what setting you're on, and the light also changes with intensity depending on what level you're at. There's no way to not know how much more you can (or can't) bump the power up.

On the lowest setting this toy is about a .5 bee and 1 vroom, and on high it's about 2.5 bees and 4 vrooms. This is actually pretty powerful, but the vibrations are very buzzy. This makes them a lot less useful to me, but some people prefer buzzy vibrations to rumbly ones.

This is safe to use if you have thin walls or roommates. Especially if you don't crank it all the way up or you turn a fan on, no one will be any the wiser that you're playing with this toy.

One downside to this cheap but cute bullet is that it is NOT waterproof. The bullet does appear to be sealed, but the battery compartment is both not sealed and very easy to open accidentally. I would NOT recommend taking this into the water, and if you have to wash the controller you should take the batteries out.

The placement of the controls is actually pretty good, though it's VERY easy to accidentally change them if you bump them. It's simple just to set the controller aside once you get it to a setting you like so that you don't accidentally make it more or less powerful.

In all, this toy has some power but is very buzzy. It's actually surprisingly quiet and has a lot of variety in the functions, so this is great for both sensitive users and those who need quite a bit of oomph. As long as you don't NEED patterns and aren't looking for a shower companion this will work surprisingly well.

While not waterproof, the Snackbox bullet is still very easy to care for. Because it's not a lint magnet it's totally fine to just wash it before and after every use. I wash mine with an antibacterial toy cleaner, but soap and water or a toy wipe also work perfectly well. When cleaning you should never submerge this and it's a good idea not to get the controller or the place where the cord connects to the bullet very wet.

You can also disinfect this toy with a 10% bleach solution. This should be done every time you plan on switching users to prevent the spread of bacteria and infection.

I keep this toy in the box with the rest of my collection in a cool, dark place. You should avoid letting this sit in direct sunlight, but it's completely compatible with all other toy materials so you don't have to take extra storage precautions. It's also safe to use with all types of lubes.

The packaging that this comes in is cute, but is very minimal. It's brightly colored and shaped nicely, and it is supposed to make it feel like a 'snackbox.' While I would have preferred it come in something like an animal cracker box, for the price I really can't complain.

On the front of the box isgreen with a swirly emblem that states the name of the line. It says that it's a "Sweet treat for your snackbox," and that the color of this toy is "Cotton Candy Pink." there is a window where you can see the toy itself displayed.

The back is super bright pink, and has an image of the super bright pink toy. It also has a small blurb about how this toy will "Thrill your sexy spot with toe-curling vibration." It also has some very basic information about the material.

You really can't open the box up without it falling apart, so I really wouldn't recommend this for storage. It doesn't have any lewd images or anything on it, so as long as the person is fine getting a sex toy I would totally wrap this up and give it as a gift.

I added the Mini Bang Snackbox bullet to my cart as an afterthought to get free shipping. I needed like $5 more to hit the $69 free shipping mark, and so this rounded it out well. I wasn't expecting to get anything worthwhile, especially for the price, but I was very surprised!

This toy, though it's not of luxury quality, is one of the best deals on the site. It's especially nice if you're looking for a bullet to abuse or take on vacation because you want to leave your favorites at home, and it's also great to test the waters and see if you want to invest in something similar, but of higher quality.

I am giving this toy 4 out of 5 stars. It feels pretty tough, but isn't waterproof and is SUPER buzzy. It's also easy to change the controls accidentally. In reality, it's not super versatile and won't last forever, but for the price it really can't be beat.
