Hey folks, does anyone know more about this packer, it caught my eye, it looks very good on the images (even though they're oddly taken).
It's  3.5" in length and 4" in girth.
The fact that it's molded of a cis guys parts makes it even better.

I've read some stuff about the paint though, that it's wearing off after about a week :/
Anyhow, does anyone own one of these or does anyone have more information about it?

I thought it looks nice. He is doing something wrong with getting "paint wearing off". That's not at all "normal" for working with silicone. Something with his technique or type of paint. I would not get the added paint. I can't recall the price.

$90 is a fair price for a silicone STP. How it is is another story. Sadly I don't think the paint will hold on it.

Yeah that's what I thought, it looks really good! Sad to hear about the paint, dang :/
I'll send FreeTom an e-mail with questions, will post it here when/if I get a reply :)

I mailed FreeTom and here are the answers, I must say the person who wrote this mail is very kind.
Took a while to get a reply though, hope this helps everyone who is interested in "The Buddy" as well.

"Hello there dear! So to answer your questions in order:

-Is the silicone as stiff as the other FreeTom prosthetics?                              
Our packers are made of very soft, life-like silicone that warms to your body much like skin, and feels comfortable.
-Will it point up whilst packing?                                                                    
No, the prosthetic material is flexible and can bend down while packing.
-Does it have 3D testicles?                                                                           
Yes, the testicles are not hollow like our other prosthetics are for urination.
-Is the skin moveable?                                                                                   
Because of the nature of silicone, the skin is immovable.
-I've heard something about the paint wearing off after a week, is this true?   
The paint is meant to be permanent, but It may peel or fade with time, especially against jeans and clothing. Our paint is meant to last,                                                                                                                                                 however things to happen and the customer should take the previous into consideration before purchasing.
-Can you wear it against your skin?   (without tearing or becoming as nasty as mr.limpy)                                                           
Of course! Our prosthetics are made of 100% Platinum silicone which is safe for skin contact.

Hope I answered your questions, have a wonderful day!!!"

"hello dear"  Dear!? That's kind of unprofessional. I would guess not all trans guys would like being called "dear"
I'd guess questions re 3d testicles and skin safe, are accurate. Not sure about the others.

I was wondering about that. Though I think they may not be from the US originally?  Maybe it's a language thing?

Ah, I didn't pay that much attention to that, but now you mention it, it does indeed seem kind of unprofessional.

aleon515

Yes, but this is a business, even if he were from the UK, where I believe that would be fairly common, wouldn't you use "sir" or a name, if you provided one? I've gone into businesses, where the worker was from the UK, but I'm a frequent customer.

I know this post is a little old but I actually just ordered this last week. I really like the Freetom products and I'm excited about having more of a flaccid looking peen then looking like I have a huge boner all the time. I'll let you all know how it goes when I receive it.

I'm crossing my fingers and hoping they make the "My Favorite" into an STP. It's one of the most realistic packers I've seen.  ;D
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I dunno.

upload them to a site like imgur and link to it. I think most people are more interested in a review of it than just pictures so if you have some opinions on it we would love to hear it!

Just watched the video...

I just don't understand how that funnel is meant to work. Like, unless you move it completely under you and stand over the bowl, there's no way it would work that I can see.  Maybe if you attach another STP to it, like the "GoGirl" or the "Whiz"?

The guy who sent me the picture said he preferred the buddy opposed to the favorite as the favorite is more wide set

They're making the My Favorite into an STP, and they also cam rout with an uncut 4 inch STP packer, and I'm not gonna lie, it looks pretty good. I'm getting the Buddy STP by Wednesday, according to tracking info. Would you guys like me to review and put up pictures once I've gotten used to it and used it for a little while??

Yes please! I'd love to see if they improved things at least. Plus like the main problem of freetom is being heavy and too big so maybe it wont be so bad by comparison.

Yeah, I totally agree. And I must have a sixth sense, because early this morning they started to sell the My Favorite STP packer. Being trans must make you a superhero with magic powers. :/

Just ordered the buddy STP!

I'm currently still waiting on this product. I did get the paint plus upgrade on it and I think it should be here next week sometime. They say it takes like 22 days if you get the paint plus but I'm pretty patient ;). Besides, I go in for my top surgery on Tuesday so I have other things to worry about lol.  I'll let you folks now how it works out when I receive it.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I dunno.
