Bruiser the Fusion

For today's review, I'll be looking at Bruiser the Fusion by Bad Dragon. Bad Dragon creates fantastic toys for furverts and/or people who want unique toy shapes. Click any of the images to see a larger version!

Size Comparison:

Bruiser is my first Bad Dragon dildo, and it's a pretty awesome part canine part dragon hunk o' silicone. You can configure your own toy and determine its size, firmness, if you want cum tube and/or suction cup, and color. This dildo is a medium, and Bruiser's dimensions are below along with those for the other sizes. The medium is slightly larger than your average dildo or human's penis. The small is closer to average, and a recommended place for those just starting out. The large and extra large are for the extra-daring and extra-stretchy.

Firmness is up next, with soft, medium, firm and splits. Splits have a different firmness for the shaft versus the base; the split soft for example has the shaft in soft and the base in medium. I went with a medium, and it's super squishy but firm enough for no difficulties during insertion. If I had gotten a small Bruiser, then I probably would have preferred the firm level so that the ribs were more defined. However, as the medium size is pretty large for myself, the squish allowed for it to fit comfortably. There are also sample discs to see which firmness you like best.

Cum tubes can be added to any size above a small for simulating ejaculation. Any toy with a cum tube also comes with their Cumlube and a syringe. The next optional addition is a suction cup, and I highly recommend this. Besides making cool double dragon cock photos with a mirror, it becomes very helpful if your wrist becomes tired of thrusting. I found during any session that involved rapid thrusting my wrists would become tired, and the dildo began to really feel heavy. On the flip side, during sessions that were more focused on trying to take the entire dildo, I tended not to use the suction cup. The suction cup is concave and slight, so it doesn't diminish the aesthetic appeal. 

Finally, there's the color selection. There are a few of the colors specifically for Bruiser, standard colors, and then pretty much whatever you want. For custom colors you can do solid, marbled, fades, highlights, glow in the dark, metallic, and split colors. My Bruiser is a custom split fade, with a dark purple base, light blue shaft, and soft purple fade. On this thread there are plenty of custom color designs and examples if you're looking for ideas. There's also a surprise me color option, in case you can't make up your mind or really do want to be surprised.

I found this dildo to be mostly awesome. Knotting (taking the large bump before the base) this dildo continues to be an enjoyable challenge. I don't ever use this dildo casually, perhaps if I had gotten the small this would have been possible as knotting would have been easier. Using the shaft before the knot is fun, but certainly not substantial. Though the tip looks pointy, it doesn't feel that way as it's so squishy, and makes insertion a breeze. When fully inserted the tip rested against my cervix and wasn't irritating. As this dildo was so squishy though, I didn't really feel the ribs. Thrusting pre-knot worked especially well because of the knot pressing up against my vulva, and the weight of the dildo made for more effective thrusts. Once knotted, there wasn't much room for me to thrust quickly. Since there is quite a hefty base on this toy, it's completely safe for anal use, and can be used in any stretchy harness.

This dildo is made of silicone, so you want to use a water-based lube. It's also a lint magnet, so using saran wrap after washing will keep it clean longer. For cleaning you can run it through the dishwasher, boil it for five minutes, or hand wash it with soap and warm water. All in all, this is a lovely dildo for getting down to business and snuggling.

  1. Good review, good products. Pity that the company puts money first before customers.

    1. Thank-you! I would like to note though that they are a business, not a non-profit. Thus they may be more concerned with turning profits over expanding accessibility to more people; and that tends to apply to any sex toy manufacturer. (Unless of course you meant your comment as a derision to their customer service, which I've thus far only heard positive things about. Please feel free to clarify!)
