BURBANK, Calif.—This July at ANME, held July 13-15 at the Marriott in Burbank, California, Booth #69 “is where the action will be,” Fun Factory Director of Marketing Emilie Rosan boasts. The German manufacturer will be launching its first unisex “pulsator” this summer, and curious buyers can see it at the show.
The Stronic Zwei is an alternative to vibrators and the second pulsator in a line of three Fun Factory toys revolutionizing the vibrator market with a new type of motor called “Drive Technology” (international patent pending).
Both the Stronic Eins and Zwei deliver pulsations instead of vibrations, generating a powerful back-and-forth thrust, not a buzz. Carol Queen from Good Vibrations already noted, "Most of the nerve endings that appreciate vibration are outside the vagina. Within the vagina, the nerves mostly respond to pressure, motion and fullness. This makes the thrusting Stronic a really good technology for internal stimulation."
“Pulsators are changing the way we masturbate,” Rosan said. “Their back-and-forth motion is impossible to replicate using the turbine motors found in any existing vibrators. A pulsator is truly an alternative to the sex toys we already know and a great new option for users who enjoy internal stimulation.”
Fun Factory USA CEO Frederic Walme said, “I cannot stress enough that Stronic is not a vibrator; it’s a pulsator.” The best way to explain this technological revolution is by showing short clips of the toy pulsating in someone’s hands or thrusting across a table.
Stronic Zwei utilizes the same technology as Stronic Eins. What differentiates the two is the design of each toy’s silicone sleeve. Zwei has a “stopper,” which is a flat base designed to do achieve two things: stop the toy from going too far inside the anal tract if used anally, or stimulate the clitoris if used vaginally. This makes Stronic Zwei a unisex toy. “This toy can thrust either against the prostate or the G-spot,” Rosan explained. Stronic Zwei also has a rounded tip designed to deliver targeted jolts to either the prostate or G-spot as it pulsates back and forth inside the user.
Fun Factory is taking pre-orders now and shipping after ANME in July. Walme shares that “pre-orders are phenomenal and our stock is already almost fully committed. After the success of the Stronic Eins, which is the toy most blogged about and with the most positive consumer reviews for months now, retailers have already planned to put Stronic Zwei in their store windows starting in July.”
Speaking of store window, the Stronic Eins had the distinction of being on display in the windows of the Museum of Sex in New York, where events were held to mark the launch of Fun Factory's first pulsator. For number Zwei, the company is planning another invitation-only launch party at the museum on June 27, co-sponsored by the Museum of Sex and Bust magazine.
