Catch a Bzzzzz With A Buddy!

Bzzz Buddies are a unique line of toys that are just right for someone who loves CUTE, anime, or is a collector. This is not the best vibrator out there, especially for the price range.

The Bzzz Buddies are a line of cute toys with a back story. They're designed to be collectible (a set of 4 so far) and the Bzzz Buddies web siteoffers downloadable wallpapers, games, stories, polls, and links to follow the buddies on Facebook and twitter. This line of 'personal massagers' would be fun for anyone into cartoons along with their sexy time. The general look and feel of these toys and their site is actually VERY toy-like. By toy-like I mean as in "Hello Kitty" or similar.

Material / Texture

The Bzzz Buddies are made of hard shiny plastic, which is body-safe and phthalate-free. There is no smell, but some users might find this toy too rigid. The four caps that fit over the vibrating end are very rigid, and two of them have sharp points that might not feel so good on tender body areas. HOWEVER, for sensory play, this might be just the new sensation you're looking for.
    • Not porous at all
    • Rigid
    • Smooth

Design / Shape / Size

Bzzz Buddies are fairly small, and could be mistaken for a large pen or other novelty toy. This may not be the MOST discreet, but it's definitely not phallic. Nobody will mistake your little buddy for a penis. However, the cartoon character head with the anime eyes can be a little unsettling. This design may or may not seem sexy to everyone, but for the right person, it could be a great time! The toys are very CUTE, not overtly SEXY.
    • Whimsical / artistic
    • Discreet look/design

Functions / Performance / Controls

Bzzz Buddies have one speed: BZZZZZZZZ. This is a strong vibration that's on the opposite end of the cartoon character. TME advertises this as 'waterproof' but water-resistant is more likely. This toy is powered by 1 AA battery, which is not included. Twisting the shaft turns the toy to 'on' 'off' or 'open' - which allows for battery insertion.
    • Not enough variety
    • Powerful

Care and Maintenance

Because Bzzz Buddies are hard plastic, they can easily be cleaned with antibacterial soap and hot water or by wiping down with isopropyl alcohol.

These toys are also compatible with all types of lubricants: water-based, oils, and silicone-based lubes.
    • Easy to clean
    • Easy to store

Packaging

The Bzzz Buddies package is very child-like. The clear box holds the toy and interchangeable caps nestled in a clear tray. Cartoon characters and (in my case the polar bear) "Shivers' story" decorate the box, along with an invitation to "meet and collect them all!"
    • Good for storage
Follow-up commentary
This toy is still just a little too cute for me! The pocket-rocket buzz is great, as long as I don't look at it. This gets little use.

You said: "They're designed to be collectible (a set of 4 so far) and the Bzzz Buddies web siteoffers downloadable wallpapers, games, stories, polls, and links to follow the buddies on Facebook and twitter." My little child has some stuffed animals that have similar links.

Um, her stuff doesn't vibrate, though.

I'm glad you liked it. It's too cute for me. I think nasty thoughts when I'm trying to get off. I like vibes that are huge jet black and look like penises.

They are cute though. Although an entire "set" would cost you well over $100.00.

These things baffle me. They're cute, but . . . why? I didn't understand the appeal of the Hello Kitty toy either, so maybe it's just me. Thanks for the review.

Thanks, all...
This is a little too cute for me, too. I guess either love 'em or hate 'em!

There is a really good response (below) from Zoey Glass of TME about the design and who these appeal to.
They're super-cute, but definitely not for everyone.

Nice review, as always. I think I'll pass on this toy.
Toys and TOYS, should not mix.

      i think they are really cute. I don't think I can orgasm from them since the vroom is too weak for me.

  • Overheating Bzzz buddies
    • Do the metal balls ever overheat and hurt during use? I was curious cause I think they are so cute, but a burning clit however is not cute :(
    • My panda buzz buddy gets pretty hot after about 15 minutes, which is why I just use it for a warm up toy. I think the heat *does* hurt.

      Ouch, that doesn't sound too fun.

  • Widgets and options such as color choices
    • I'd like to use a widget of the BzzzBuddies in my blog, but the system won't let me save more than one of the same item to my desktop. I've run into this problem before when attempting to choose specific colors of products for widgets.

      Is there a way to do this which I am overlooking, or is this simply not possible?

      Thanks!!
    • Hey ToyGeek,
      Right now there does not seem to be a way to add more than one style or color of the same product to a widget. I completely understand that this feature would be desirable and useful, especially if you want to talk about a specific version of a toy or if you want to compare versions.

      I'll look into this issue more and update this thread if/when new options are available.

      Thanks. I could not be lazy and code it by hand, but I don't want to do that all the time.

    • Hi! One thing about the BzzzBuddies that's certain -- they sure get people buzzzing (sorry, couldn't resist). We at TME understand the toy isn't for everyone, and that's a-okay. Nothing ever is though, is it? And that's what's so awesome about human sexuality :) We've had an enthusiastic reception at trade shows and in adult stores, mainstream stores, etc and yes, have heard from those who didn't get it or didn't find the toys their thing. Those who like this generally gravitate to all things cute, colorful and playful (like I do) and they're especially popular with the anime / kawaii crowd. Many of us like to have crazy-fun-time in the bedroom -- think pony tails and bobby socks! But we've found that our fans so far are much more than that: Bachlorettes, newcomers to toys, those who love to role-play, and those who want to give an ice breaker gift with a playful edge have all shown their love for the BzzzBuddies.

      Thanks for the honest feedback! This is why we love the Edenfantasys community. I'm definitely keeping track of all suggestions and comments so that we can keep it in mind for all the fun stuff we have planned for the future.

      P.S. The tips we chose because they're standard for introductory rockets and provide texture that many body massage enthusiasts go for (such as a light, vibrating scratch up and down the back -- it sends an exhilirating chill, I guarantee you, especially with warming massage oils!), but you all have provided inspiration for other tips that we can introduce in the future that would be fun for more sensitive areas. Until then, the rounded tip and nub-dot tip are my personal favorites for when the fun massage gets serious ;)

      Thanks!
    • These are deeeefinitely gorgeous!
