Just signed up here today because I wanted to post this news. This MASHO product from Japan was developed for FTM, and from what I was told by one of my Japanese friend, this product is very good as far as size goes. Check it out. It will be available for purchase in April at queencatadulttoys dot com.
I might get this, but only because it's cheap and the balls appear to have dimension to them.
I'm also intrigued by the firmness option.
Thank you for posting this.
:]
Thanks for this....jason if you do end up getting one would love to hear some reviews from you.
I don't get it - why does the color change with the firmness? how firm would the "hard" one be?
Thanks for the heads up on this, looks good.
The balls look nice and I like the comparison picture with the Mr Limpy. Though mine is not so stiff as the one in the picture, I like that the Masho just hangs down.
I am wondering about the firmness and colours as well though, maybe they'll give more info on that at the end of April. But anyway, for that price, I'll probably order two of them.
One because I'm curious about 'm and a second to feel the difference in firmness. But I won't order them 'till this summer, so Jason, if you get your hands on one before that time. Please do share your thoughts.
I would also be interested in reading a review if you got one :) My packer is from good vibes, and while I love it, I wish it was even softer (or maybe smaller, but I did get the 4 inch), because I feel like my bulge is too big and hard! Maybe I am just really bad at packing it :P
Might be that you just need to get used to packing as well. (don't know for how long you're packing now) But in the start it always looks and feels big and visible and everything just 'cause you're not used to have a bulge there.
Just ordered one. I'll let you guys know. :angel:
They look amazing. I wanted one so much
...but no posting to Australia :'(
Story of my life
I received it on Saturday, bought a firmness 'regular'. If you have tried Mr. Limpy and liked it, I would say you would also like this masho thing. It's very similar to Limpy. Material is pretty good except the color. They should've made it all firmness in the same color. I really like the balls. That's the part I like masho better than Limpy.
Kynn,
This one comes from Japan. I think you might be able to buy directly from Japan. Isn't Australia close to Japan?

...........haha, not really. About as close as the USA is to Iceland.
I'll try looking at japanese websites though, thank you.
/EDIT. No luck. Looks like they don't tell in Japan :S. Least not that I can find on google
Sorry... I'm terrible at geography..obviously. If I come across info on who ships to Australia, I'll let you know.

Why does it not say how big it is lol?
Mr.Rainey - It's about the size of the of the extra-small Mr. Limpy. I just got one of the MASHOs after my Small Mr. Limpy took a ride through the wash.
I do agree that it's strange they don't put the size up there, tough.
I was really excited about the Masho's but the website's just depressing now. Same story as Kyyn, 'no shipping to foreign countries'. I really hope there's another webshop out there that'll decide to stock some of these packers..
They said they would ship overseas when requested.
"Or you can simply keep it on your desk and touch its shaft and balls all you want, whenever you want."
Well, that's better than suggesting people take it to bachelorette parties. ::)
"-International order / shipping-
We are sorry that we do not ship to foreign countries at this time."
DISLIKE.
We should contact them about it. And encourage everyone that can't order them to do the same.
Sooner or later they'll go worldwide, yes? ;)
Meh.. I'll probably just mail them this Summer anyway, see if they make exceptions.

Please tell me if they do!
Right now it's looking like i'll have to fork out $50+ for shipping or travel to America if i ever want to get any packer.
Also, your hair is epic. Had to be said
Any packer? I'd imagine that at least the Mr Limpy would be available for a resonable price?
I order random stuff from a webshop situated in NZ from time to time and the shipping costs aren't that bad. (to Europe)
And thanks. ;)
Edit:
You know what, I'll just write 'm now and I'll let you know when I hear something back.
Guess what, they're quick.
So heuray for double posting.
Part of the mail I got back: (I said a friend from Australia was interested as well, hence the Australian shipping costs ;))

Thank you very much for contacting us and being interested in Masho.
Yes, we can ship Masho to Netherlands and Australia, but shipping fee
will be a bit expensive. We are a small company and don't have contracts
with UPS or EedEx, so the only shipping method we use is USPS (United
States Postal Service).
Tomax (a manufacturer of Masho) products are sold by us or Omochadreams
in Germany. I just checked their website and don't see them selling Masho, so
I can ship to Netherlands. Netherlands is normally Omochadreams' territory and
I don't want to step on their toes. So as soon as they start selling Masho, I need
you to contact them when you purchase next time please.
As for shipping price, I simply use www.usps.com, so you can check yourself too
if you want to make sure we are telling you the true shipping fee. lol.
Shipping weight for Masho is 1 lb. Anything less than 1 lb, we have to use 1 lb.
Shipping to Netherlands
Priority - $30.00 ( 6 - 10 days)
First Class - $12.00 ( Usually 15 days)
Shipping to Australia
Priority - $34.00 ( 6 - 10 days)
First Class - $12.00 ( Usually 15 days)
There is one problem, and it's the main reason why we don't normally ship overseas.
With priority, USPS provides "delivery confirmation #", but when the package leaves
U.S., sometimes the # stops working. Very unreliable.
With First Class, USPS does not provide any #. So basically you have to trust us
that we really ship.
And for all international shipping, we can't be responsible for damage or even lost package.
And we need you to agree with this "in writing" to protect us. Hope you can understand.
I'm sorry that this is getting complicated, but international shipping isn't easy for a
small company like us. We have shipped to Europe and Australia, and we never had any
problems.
I will contact the Omochadreams company soon though as well. 'Cause if there's a chance that they will stock the Masho, it's a lot easier for me to order it from them. But it's good to know that Queen Cat will ship it. And the prices aren't that bad, on the whole I trust the world wide postal service. I've ordered a lot on the whole and so far I've had two problems unresolved. One was a fraud and the other was lost in the mail but it wasn't that bad.
Oh, got to go, boyfriend wants to watch telly with me. I'll leave it at this. ;)
Edit:
I actually got a second mail just now saying that payment can be done with credit card or paypal.
If you know other FTMs in your country, maybe go in on an order to save shipping. Or contact a sex toy store and see if they are interested in adding it to their stock. At least then they'd get the wholesale price (plus shipping).
AH!
That's actually the cheapest shipping I've seen. O__O
I'm guessing I should email them myself to get it happening?
Thank you! :D

That would be awesome! But sadly not possible.
Brisbane is a very small town. I've only ever met 2 other FtMs and they're both already on T.

Could you link me to this site? Could be worth a look :D
Yes, just mail ahead. I suppose they're waiting for someone from Australia to contact them now ;) :)
Since you'll be mailing them anyway, you could ask her about the sizing, I'm pretty sure she's happy to provide any information you'd want and I think that wasn't on the website.
And the website I was talking about isn't a transrelated shop. So it wouldn't be of much use haha. (Home of poi, skill- and firetoys)
On a somewhat unrelated note- Home of poi <3!
Kyyn, I'll be in Brisbane in six weeks for surgery! If you decide to order I'd love to pitch my own in with yours, then we could share shipping! :D

That might work actually. I just ordered a Mr.Limpy from a newzealand store and I'd love to get one of these ones too so I can do a comparison for everyone.
Do you mind waiting until Thursday? ^^; that's when i get paid.
Will PM you about it Kyyn. :)
Just wondering if anyone ended up buying more than one to determine the difference in "firmness"? I like the color of the hardest one but no idea if it will be too hard to wear it around, hahah. I'd get a regular but the color puts me off of it a little.
My GV sailor soft pack's firmness is great, I prefer it to Limpy for that aspect, but after being in a harness for even just a few days, it's started to tear. I'm wondering if the firmer MASHO might be a nice replacement.
The firmest masho is actually less firm than the small mr right or whatever his name is. (The one that people think looks like they have a boner - you just need to lay the shaft diagonally, which is how many non-=trans dicks are.) On the masho, I think the balls are a bit undersized, not just in relation to the shaft but in relation to non-trans male testicles. They are rounded on the back, so there is not an 'edge' if the unit shifts.
But as to firmness, it's ok. I can't imagine anything much softer that would seem to be realistic-ish and have any heft. The teensy balls are the main drawback, I think.
I think smaller balls might not be so bad. I can imagine that 'half' the time when the packer moves 'out of position', it could happen because the packer (probably in a harness) is pushed up because the balls are in the way when you close your legs.
So it might not be the right size, but it might work for those having trouble to keep it down haha.
And you're talking about Mr Limpy, because if I'm not mistaken, Mr Right is another softpack, but less common. (and more expensive I believe)
Yeah Mr. Right is from Vixskin and made of silicone.
What about the color? Is it cotton candy pink or closer to skin color?
Ah thanks for the input guys, I might just wait and save for a Mr. Right or something a bit pricier if the MASHO is enough like Limpy that I can just stick with what I got now.
I got a MASHO regular and am really happy with the way it hangs from my commando harness-- no half boner look.
It's been almost 3 months since I bought the first Masho, and so far so good, worn out a bit but no major tears. Actually bought another one in hard firmness because I just couldn't stand the color of medium firmness. Guess it's worth the price if it lasts that long although it's much less realistic than silicone packers.
Hey! I know I'm way out of conversation here, but I'm hoping one of you guys who purchased it could give me info.
I've always had hell packing, and avoided it most of the time, but I hate the way my pants sag when I go without. I wanted to get one of these "MASHO" packers, and I see it was said the regular was about as firm as the limpy (the generic everyone has it seems, lol), how has it held up? I hate that boner look I can't get rid of no matter how I put the thing, and the larger one I bought (the 5") just seems way misproportionate and in either event both move when I sit down / stand up. So I want to retry with a better, soft packer, would this be a go? Is the soft too soft?
Basically, how do you feel after having it for a while. I'm so glad I found this, originally I thought the Soft-Reg-Hard was incorrectly put and they meant colors. >.<
These might help you decide.

Thanks TM. I've seen various "how to pack" and those sort of things, and I've seen plenty of photos, I just think it's build-related, lol. I like the "Art of..."'s review-- thanks for including that. I'm sad to say I never saw that on Tumblr! Shame on me.
Thanks again. =)
