The Bandit comes in three colors, chocolate, vanilla, and caramel. The Bandit can be used in so many ways. My favorite way to use him is by vaginal play. With the balls attached at the end, the Bandit can also be used for anal play as well. Because of the size of the dildo, beginners might want to be careful if using him anally. The balls can also be very helpful to others. If you're looking for a dildo to slip into a harness, than the Bandit is also perfect for that. My favorite lubricant to use with the dildo is Liquid Silk. Not only does Liquid Silk make him easy for inserting, but it also gives the Bandit even more of a realistic look and feel.

The Bandit is also great for bath/shower time. Since there is no requirement for batteries, you don't have to worry about getting him wet. Unfortunately the only down fall about bath/shower play is that he doesn't have a suction cup. One of the coolest things that I love about this dildo is that he can hold body heat in very well. You can also get him cold if you want. To get him cold, simply run him under cold water for a few seconds. To get him warm, you can hold him in your hands for a few seconds or run him under warm water. The Bandit stays warm for a short amount of time.

MATERIAL:
I love the material! What is the material made out of? VixSkin. And what is VixSkin? VixSkin is this amazing squishy, silicone, made to mimic real skin material. It has a safety rating of ten on Edenfantasys. It is the best material you can get in a sex toy. VixSkin can be fully disinfected, therefor the Bandit can be shared. There is no smell or taste to it at all. VixSkin dildos are perfect for practicing blow jobs. It is so much fun to touch the Bandit, I cannot stop touching and squishing it. One thing about VixSkin is that it is very addicting. Once you try a VixSkin dildo, you will never go back to low quality materials. The Bandit is very smooth with a bit of a drag to it and is very sticky. A little quick fact is that all VixSkin dildos are hand made.

TEXTURE:
The Bandit has these lovely veins that run up and down around the shaft. I can feel them every time I insert the Bandit. The texture is definitely more for advanced users. If you don't like texture all that much than I suggest you not get the Bandit. If you like a lot of texture to your dildos, than the Bandit may not be for you.

DESIGN/SHAPE:
I absolutely love the realistic looking dildos. I know that most people don't care much for the realistic look and feel to them, so if you're one of those people that don't like the realistic feel and look of dildos than steer clear from this one. The Bandit can bend in half without much force to it. There is however a hard core in the middle, the hard core in the middle stops right before it reaches to the tip. It's not too stiff that it hurts to thrust, but it's not too flexible that it is difficult for inserting either. Its just right in the middle.

SIZE:
The size is what makes the Bandit my least favorite VixSkin. I really do love the thickness of it, but the length is just a little bit too tall for me. The total length is 8" tall, and 7" insertable. The circumference is 5 1/2", diameter is 1 3/4" and weighs around 14.5 oz. The Bandit is not suitable for traveling with, unless you don't care that there is a big dildo in your luggage.

As I was saying before, the balls on the Bandit makes it perfect for harness play. I only have one harness so far and the balls fit nicely in it. The harness that I got is Inked restraints tattoo harness. Another favorite way to use the Bandit is by gently rubbing a powerful bullet back and forth across my clit while thrusting the Bandit.

There are a couple of ways to clean the Bandit:
~Boil for three minutes~
~Put in TOP dishwasher rack~
~Clean with warm water and ant-bacterial soap~
~Wipe down with toy wipes and/or toy spray~

How to store:
~Can be stored in original package~
~Can be stored in a pouch by itself~

Lubricants to use:
~Water-based lubricant ONLY!
~Other lubricants can damage the Bandit~

Side note:
Keep the Bandit away from other materials, they can damage the toy. Plastic, steel, glass, and wood are ok to store with the Bandit. Wash before and after each use. If you are going to share, make sure to use a condom with it. Clean in between swapping from anal play to vaginal play.

The packaging is pretty simple. It comes in this square, plastic, reusable, package that makes it perfect for storing the Bandit. It has a decent amount of information on the back. It also includes the company website, phone number, fax number, and email address. One thing I don't care much about the package is that the Bandit is a little bit too big for it. I hate that I have to stuff him in the package.

You can clearly see what it is. So unless the person knows what it is, it's not a good idea for gift giving.

The first thing I noticed about the Bandit when I first opened it was the feeling of it. I have both the Lone Star and the Mustang. To me, the Bandit is more squishy than both of them. The Mustang is more bendable than the Lone Star and the Bandit. The one with the most texture is the Lone Star. Even though they are all made from the same company, the three VixSkin dildos are completely different in design, shape, size, feeling, and texture.
