We've all probably thought of some sort of strange sexual fantasy at one point or another. Possibly from watching Twilight and thinking, what it would be like to have sex with a werewolf? Or maybe playing Skyrim and wonder what a dragon penis/vagina would ultimately look and feel like. Well, I'm happy to say that you don't have to ponder these questions anymore, you can just experience them for yourselves, thanks to a very fascinating, American based, sex toy company named Bad Dragon.

So, what is Bad Dragon? Well, let's start with its beginnings and how it came to be. In 2007, Varka, the current and original CEO of Bad Dragon, began crafting fantasy dragon dildos from his college dorm in Scotland. According to an interview he did with Vice.com, he searched the web and was disappointed by the lack of well-made sex toys that catered to fantasy fetishes. So, he decided to take things into his own hands, by hand making, at first, dragon dildos. Thus, the company BadDragon.com was born.
It didn't stop at dragon's, the current toy selection includes everything, from werewolves, equines, and even dinosaurs, with toys including dildos, fleshlights, and even wearables. What I found most unique about the sex toys is that each of them coincides with a fantasy anthropomorphic character, who has, usually, an erotic cover photo and a very creative bibliography, which include their sexuality and small story that can include the viewer. Let's take, for example, one of their products, Apollo the Chimera.
In a tidbit from the bibliography: The Chimera steps toward you, his keen senses surveying you as he makes a sideways approach. The creature displays powerful rippling muscles, glossy fur, and and two large horns cresting his proud brow as he steps once more across your path. You realize that he's backed you in a slow circle, and your only means of escape now lies beyond him instead of behind you.
It is admitted by Varka that a majority of his clientèle are furries, but there are plenty of others whom are non-furries, who are in fact fans of World of Warcraft or fantasy gamers, who buy up these toys. He also states that 70% of buyers are male and 30% are female. The toys themselves are highly customizable and come in various sizes, ranging from mini to extra-large, and can include features like suction cups or cum-tubes, which can shoot a fake semen-like liquid at the user's discretion. If you look at a variety of fan art on furry fandom websites, as Varka mentions, you will notice sexual fantasies with buckets of spunk everywhere, which influenced the overall design of the cum tubes.
They will also feature sales on certain items or occasionally sell special occasion toys which usually only last a limited time. Below are two of quite a few that has been brought about last year. The first is The Galaxy Battles toys, which came out shortly after the release of "Star Wars: The Force Awakens".
And who could forget one of the biggest internet, and Super Bowl, sensation, Left Shark.
What's funny is that these toys are more than just tools used by some to get themselves off, they can be used as weapons, considering the immense size of some of them. Or, if you have a twisted mind like me, you could use them as a conversation piece; and what's a better way to start off a conversation than trying to proudly explain why there is an enormous T-Rex dildo on my coffee table.
To be honest, their products overall have caused an evolution in the sex toy industry. Bad Dragon brought about quality toys that catered to a wide audience, from furries, to geeks, to those who are just looking to spice things up. They are iconic and very successful and it is definitely a great statement, especially in this industry. What I also find to be pretty amazing is that they take the stigma of fantasy sexual experiences and replacing it with confidence. I'm very impressed with what they have achieved, and how they stuck with their creativity and pushed forward to make it highly marketable, continuously producing new characters, new designs, and staying on top of the game.
To the skeptics, seriously, you should take a look for yourselves. Look at the selection, make a purchase. Don't be afraid to try one out. It doesn't mean you are a furry, or, as a large number of straight men are concerned about, gay, it may just mean that the toy is just pushing buttons that you have never had pushed. I originally stumbled upon these products by accident. I was initially surprised and laughed because I thought it was funny and just something that was completely out there. Now, I look at and think about how impressive it all is. Not just being able to produce high quality sex toys for pretty reasonable prices, but the fact that they went from nothing to the top.
