The Holiday Ball Santa Duckie by Big Teaze Toys comes in a square plastic packaging. The front of the sides of the package can be seen through to see the toy inside. There are silver coloured snowflakes on the plastic packaging. The back of the packaging states the company name, product name, a few product features, and company website. The packaging isn’t discreet but it sure is pretty!



Inside of the plastic package, the toy sits within a round plastic ball that looks like an ornament to hang on the tree. You actually can hang it on your Christmas tree if you wanted because it has a loop at the top made of gold coloured string. There is a red bow made of ribbon at the very top of ornament.

The front half of the ornament is see through. The front has a few white snowflakes on it and states the company name, product name, and states that it is a “waterproof massager”. The back half of the ball is a solid greenish-blue colour. There is a silver coloured top to the ornament that twists off in order to open it.

The duck inside of the ornament is the toy that vibrates. The duck is made of phthalate free PVC. It’s a hard material with no flexibility to it. The product page states that the material is soft but I assume they mean smooth. The definition of soft is “not hard or firm to the touch” and this duck is both. The duck is wearing a Santa hat and coat. The “clothing” is PVC as well and is not removable from the body of the duck.



The texture to the toy depends on which part of the duck you are using. The tail area is smooth and flat with no texture to it. The top of the ducks head (the hat) has a few bulges in it. The face of the duck has the protruding beak to it. I’ve taken a few measurements of the toy but if you need any other measurements, please send me a message and I will get them for you.

Circumference of ornament (casing to toy): 12 ¾ inches
Duck width: 3 ¼ inches
Duck height: just less than 3 ½ inches
Length of protruding beak: just less than 3/8 of an inch

You can see from the measurements above that the duck is actually quite small. I was surprised at how small he was in comparison to another ducky that I have from the same company (see photo below). The duck can be used for external stimulation to areas such as the clitoris, neck, feet, legs, breasts, etc.



The toy requires 1x AAA battery, which is not included. The battery compartment has a twist cap lid and is located at the bottom of the toy. It’s fairly simple to open and close the compartment. There is a black O-ring around the compartment to ensure that no water leaks in it since the toy is waterproof. You can use either silicone or water based lubricants with the toy.



Holiday duck only has one setting of vibration. There is a turn dial at the bottom of the toy to control the vibration. The dial is labelled and with only one vibration level, it’s very easy to use. There is an “off” and “on” label. When you turn the dial to “on”, you’re met with a constant, medium vibration. The vibrations are rumbly rather than buzzy. They can be felt throughout the entire toy but are a bit stronger near the bottom of the toy. The bottom of the tail area would be the best area to use.

The vibrations are a 3 out of 5 vroom level, which just means they are moderate in power. They would satisfy most people. I purchased this toy as a gift for someone but if I were to use it, it wouldn’t satisfy me since I need a lot of strength to my vibrations. The noise to the toy sounds like a hum. It can be heard from beneath the covers but not a closed door.

The toy is very easy to clean, especially since it is waterproof. I didn’t submerge the toy in water but I did hold it upside down under the running tap and no water got into the battery compartment. The toy can be cleaned with antibacterial soap and water, toy wipes, or a toy cleaning spray.

Overall, I think it’s a cute little toy. Like I had mentioned, I purchased this as a gift for someone. The regular price of $29.99 is a bit steep in my opinion, especially when my Bondage Duckie was the same price and he is stronger, and larger. In the end, you’re paying for the novelty of the item. I’d recommend the toy for gift giving but would suggest waiting until it’s on sale or to use a coupon code when purchasing.

I gave one of these away at Christmas and she (my sister) loved it! I still find the price a bit high but like I mentioned in my original review, you're paying for the novelty of the item. I just noticed that these have now been discontinued. Hopefully they will bring them back around Christmas time so I can gift a few more!
