Maverick VixSkin - realistic dildo with flared base discontinued by Vixen Creations, Inc - review by KrissyNovacaine

Maverick is another great dildo from Vixen Creations. He is made of their dual density silicone that they name Vixskin. He's great for all sorts of fun things. He has a curve, so he'll work for g-spotting and possibly p-spotting. I prefer him vaginally for solo time, but he has a base which also acts as a suction cup, so you can use him in a harness. The base also means that he is safe for anal play.

Vixskin is an amazing material, but I have found that it compresses during use, so this is great for those that want to work on sizing up. This silicone isn't as filling as other types, so it is easier to take larger sizes.

Maverick is made from VixSkin which is a special dual density type of silicone. He has a soft, kind of sticky exterior and a more rigid interior. This makes for a very realistic sensation when inserted as the two layers move over each other, much like the real thing. Additionally, he has small ridges and veins modeled after a real penis, but nothing severe, and they are all very plush, so those that do not like texture are pretty safe with this one. I love the large vein that runs on the underside of the shaft. For some reason, it's my favorite part of a real penis, so I love that it is so pronounced on Maverick.

The sticky texture disappears with a little water based lube, but it does attract lint and pet hair like crazy.

Maverick, like all silicone items, are tasteless and odorless. Also, he doesn't hold on to any either.

The Maverick is 8.25" long and 7.75" insertable. He's just a hair over 6" in circumference over the foreskin ridge which is the widest point. For me, he is in my size range, but the squish puts him at the lower end. Most will probably find him on the larger end.

Maverick is extremely realistic. He only comes in skin tones, has every ridge that the head of a real penis has, and has veins in all the right places. I loved the molding on the muscle that runs down the underside of the shaft. It's super large and pronounced. Maverick does include foreskin. This is my first toy with foreskin. I'm not in love with it, but I am not super against it either. My partner actually remarked at how similar he looked to an actual penis. That being said, this is not a discreet toy for all the above mentioned reasons.

Most Vixen dildos have a slight upward curve, and the Maverick is no different. He can reach a g-spot, but he's pretty flexible, so he isn't going to offer really firm pressure.

Maverick does not have any vibrating parts nor does it have any place to put a bullet. I don't mind because I am not in love with vibration in general. If you do need vibration, you can hold a strong bullet to the base.

The suction cup is quite impressive. I keep accidentally sticking him to things and desperately trying to peel him off. Also, the suction cup also makes it harness compatible as it is a flared base. You will need to get a ring to fit his girth as a lot of harnesses will not include a ring that will fit him.

I love riding my dildos in a cowgirl position, and Maverick is a great length for doing just that.

He can be sterilized by boiling it or by putting it on the top rack of the dishwasher. The material is non-porous, so it will not hold onto bacteria, but because it is a lint magnet, you will need to wash it off before use. You can wash it with mild soap or toy cleaner and warm water.

Maverick needs to be stored away from other types of silicone and is not compatible with silicone lubes. Only use him with water based lubricants, and store him in his original packaging or some kind of bag away from other toys.

Vixen's packaging is simple but, in my opinion, perfect. It is a clear plastic tube that you can clearly see the toy through with a black top and bottom that can easily be removed. Maverick sits inside within full view, so it is not discreet packaging. What is is good for is storage. The tube is not much bigger than Buck and is perfect for fitting on my toy shelf.
