I know there is another thread about this but it hasn't been posted in, in awhile. Has anyone who's ordered one gotten theirs? I'm really interested in buying one.
Boosting this, since I'm curious as well. I know a few people were waiting on orders...
I know I wish I hadn't waited to order, since the prices went up drastically. I would have liked to have the realistic testicles. Oh well. The single density is still in my price-range, so I figure I'll order one of those while I continue to save for my Reel Magik. $150 is still really inexpensive for a high-quality, custom-color, 100% silicone packer that can (apparently) be attached with medical adhesive. I mean, that's pretty close, price wise, to Vixskin...I was thinking of shelling out for a Johnny, but I'd really rather have something more realistically colored with 3D balls. The visual is really important to me.
I'm currently waiting on a new set of samples, since they changed their formulations since I last sent off for some. But I'll keep you guys updated. The complete order might take a few months.
That's what I was thinking too.. Was going to pay about $125 for a goodfella so figured I'd ask about these since they are only $25 more and look much better. I'm just worried about not getting it.. Hopefully someone who has ordered will see this. Def keep everyone updated Nowhereboi

I have to admit that I'm also super curious about this last bit:
"For the transgender community, we are open and willing to discuss custom projects to go along with the several ideas we have for new development. Custom projects are often time consuming and expensive, so we suggest that people try to form groups to figure out what features would be most desirable in a new product and to share expenses."
Does this mean that we could technically get together, come up with and order some sort of dream prosthetic? Hmm.

Hey, sorry I haven't posted on these forums in a long time. I've had a very serious physical injury this May and have just gotten back to doing my daily things now.
I was one of the people to order Sinthetics. While I have received my flaccid (I think it's still in my car, I haven't even had time to look at it) I haven't received my erect. It's been nine months since my order was finalized. I also exchanged some very rude emails with them so...I'm not happy. I don't recommend working with them. They've made excuse after excuse, when I said I'd report them if I didn't get my item they basically told me off and patronized me. Not once did I hear an apology.
Not happy.

Hey Seb, can you tell us a little more about your interaction with Sinthetics so far? I'm just curious... I don't want another bad ordering experience and I was really hoping these folks would be a good fit. I guess not?
Also, did you order the dual density erect model? That could be why it's taking longer than your flaccid one...though no way it should take nine months. I know they ran into a bunch of problems recently, but that is a little ridiculous. 3-6 months is the norm, apparently, though. So guys, if you're thinking of ordering, keep that in mind. How long did they tell you it was going to take?
Glad you're feeling better, by the way :)
Well, first of all, this is on my order page at Sinthetics:
Flaccid packer shipped USPS. Erect still in production.
By Sinsadmin on 5/22/2013 (5 months ago)
I did have the dual-density. But this is a ridiculous amount of time.
Regardless, the interactions we had were...not good.
This message was on June 28th.
"Hello Sebastian
If you had been watching our forum, you would see that we have had to be away for a dire family health emergency. The 2nd item on your order has been poured and is awaiting finishing. Matt will do that as soon as he is able. We are hoping that his father's health is stable for a while so that he does not need to leave again. He is doing his best to work through everything and get all the product out with the quality that you and everyone else expects from us. You have already received the first part of your order. We expect the ship the last item within the next 2 weeks.
Sincerely,
Bronwen
Sinthetics"
It's not here, obviously. I don't really want to post the rude emails (if that's okay) because I was also rude to them, and I feel bad for it. I just didn't find it was very professional...not to mention this wait has been ridiculous. There was an air of condescension I didn't like, however. If anyone still wants details on that, I suppose I can post. (Part of me just doesn't like digging up these old feelings, I haven't even thought about this in months).
Anyway, I hope that answers all you were wondering!
(And thank you!)

I would honestly just not bother and would order, instead, from somewhere like Reel Magik where - though they also take a number of months to create and ship - people have actually received their orders and have good reviews overall.
I don't know much about Sinthetics, but if they are indeed a very small company creating highly realistic (and thus probably complex) and artistic prosthetics, they could well be under a great deal of strain if they have only a handful of staff. If this is the case, then they would be better off hiring more staff if their demand is increasing (which it probably is).
It sounds as though one person is doing the creating - and they may be a family business - that isn't good enough if they expect to stay in business, but it's not my place to tell them that. I would not be happy either if I spent a great deal of money on a product and was still waiting for it nine months later.
After a year of waiting, I have FINALLY received my erect Sinthetic packer today at about 3 pm. I'm satisfied with the product, frustrated at the wait, but overall satsified. Very realistic, fits GREAT against female anatomy, but I'm not sure it's hard enough for actual insertion. Will try with my partner and update you on results, but he is a cis male so your results may vary with a woman.
Would you guys like a full review or anything? I might be able to.
- Seb
EDIT: Here is my review that I sent another member in an email:
---- WILL INCLUDE PICTURES ONCE I GET A CAMERA ----
SINTHETICS: 7 inch erect circumsized in Dolce (cupped back shape)
Flaccid circumcized in Dolce (cupped back shape)
Total: $375.00
Wait Time: Over a year for the erect, a few months on the flaccid
REELMAGIK: 8 inch in M12, punched hair and kit included
Basic packer in Asian (NOT the prosthetic! I compared the basic packer because it is similar in price!)
Total: Nearly $2k
Wait Time: Roughly 8 months?
Sinthetics Flaccid model:
In comparison to the Reel Magik basic packer, this one is MUCH more realistic. Not only does it look and feel more realistic, but the colors are absolutely fantastic. The balls hang PERFECTLY, and while it is single density just like the RM basic packer, this one looks passable as a real penis. Like the RM, it does not attach ,but fits snugly in a pair of boxers. Absolutely perfect for getting over dysforia. I would reccomend this. There are little details, like the skin on the scrotum hangs nicely and the right testicle hangs lower than the left. The veins also stick out and are colored. Absolutely no comparison to the basic, flat, one-colored RM packer, which had a mottled skin imperfection when it came to me. The penis itself is bigger than the RM basic packer, so I would keep that in mind for any smaller guys. But it doesn't really stick out more than usual. If you just looked at this like a normal penis, it would look like you're above average endowed only slightly, nothing obtrusive. 10/10 I would recommend to anyone. ALSO, I should note that this color matched my skin tone absolutely perfectly, and matched up wit hthe pictures on the computer almost perfectly. I did not ask for color samples.
Sinthetics Erect Model:
In comparison to the Reel Magik erect model, it really cannot top the realism. HOWEVER, despite that, this is an AMAZINGLY realistic looking phallus, especially for the price. The scrotum is a bit bigger than I was expecting, but there are floating testicles inside. I think the size of the scrotum actually matches up better than the RM, which I found the balls looked too small and retracted. Also, the balls go back further so you can see the entire back of the scrotum--it doesn't just end like on the Reelmagic. Also, the way that the cupped back shape is on the erect ,model fits WONDERFULLY aganst female anatomy. While the soft packer is a bit flatter, the hardness on this one allows for a comfortable fit around female anatomy. There are also really great details, such as veins that sick out and are slightly colored---very realistic. My only problem with this is that I do not think the shaft is hard enough for anal insertion, a problem for us guys who are dating cis men and who prefer to top. There is definitely a core on the inside, which is less bumpy and loud like the RM (one of my huge complaints....it's noisy and not discreet when you pull it up to make it hard), but its not nearly as firm as the RM. It could probably hold for vaginal insertion, however. Also, while the RM points downward, this one points slightly up, which makes it much more realistic (when my husband tucks his into his pants, he tucks upwards, because that's the way it sits. However, when you tuck the RM upwards, the balls pull away from the body unnaturally). While the RM looks much more realistic, the color it came in was far ligher than what I expected, whereas Sinthetics was just the right color to match absolutely perfectly with my body. I actually think the Sinthetic beats the RM in feel.
And now about the price...There is a HUGE difference in price and because of it, there is really no comparison. There are many things I like about the RM more, such as the tiny little details, but overall I'd recommend Sinthetics, especially for people on a budget. The only way I'd recommend otherwise is if adhering to your skin is an absolute point of no return. If you MUST adhere, unfortunately Sinthetics do not adhere to your body. But for guys like me who like to pack in a tight pair of boxer briefs, this works perfectly. I don't have one, but I think these would fit perfectly in a strap as well, judging by the way they are shaped.
EDIT #2: I think you can adhere Sinthetics, but not really with the 7" size or bigger. Also, I'm not sure exactly HOW you would adhere, but on the website it says that you can.
Thanks for this thorough comparison/review!
Hey I'm a little confused. Is this the RM basic *prosthetic*, because there is a basic packer at about $80 US. Thanks.
That's a very good review.
--Jay
Oh sorry mate, I should specify that it is the basic packer! NOT the prosthetic. (I will add that in my description; the reason I compared the basic model to the Sinthetic soft pack is because they are comparable in price).
Any pics of the flaccid and erect?
I put this in my post but, I will have pics up when I find my phone cable. I've taken pics but I just can't get them onto the computer at this time.

Ok but the price of the RM basic packer is not $2k more like $100!! I think the Sinthetic is more of a prosthetic not a packer like RM (a packer being a lot less realistic). I waited maybe a month for my RM, but that was the first order way back when. Otherwise the review is very good, I just don't think the products are comparable in any way.
--Jay
Oh no no, I compared the erect 7 inch Sinthetic (which costs $200, I think) to the advanced 8 inch RM prosthetic, which costs $2k. But the RM basic packer is what I compared to the soft packer, sorry for the confusion!
So I sort of compared the two erect models, which were detailed prosthetics around the same size (seven inches and eight inches), but then I compared my soft models separately, AKA the RM basic packer as well as the circumsized flaccid Sinthetic model.
I hope that was clearer!
Yes, some of the confusion is from them I think. They have a basic packer and a basic prosthetic. They should use different terms. They should use the word standard with their prosthetic. If I see Jesse in June, I'll let him know. LOL

So it looks like they're having a sale, guys: ready made packers, including upgraded versions at a discount? I got the dolce firm...will review when I receive it. It's a shame I already had one on the way, but I couldn't beat the deal. Maybe I can work a barter with someone or something (off site, obviously) for a flaccid model.
http://sinthetics.com/feet-and-dicks-everywhere/
The only thing that I have with this particular company's prosthetics is how would you fit a harness ring around the enormous shaft area?
Got my discounted Sinthetics 6" in dolce today. Significantly darker than expected (which is a good thing in this case). Great size. Similar in overall feel to vixskin products but w/a firmer inner core (unique to this individual packer, part of why it was discounted). The realistic testicles are nice...but not as good as RMs in terms of feel (the scrotum is pretty thick). In terms of look/size, however, they're way better. There are indeed two free-floating balls which can move all around the sac with enough manipulation, though I'd be a little afraid to manipulate them too much (not that they seem flimsy, I'm just super cautious). The packer itself is a little rough...there are clear seam lines and raised nodules of excess silicone throughout, but nothing too bad. I'd be upset if I'd paid $400-500 dollars for it, but for $320, I'm really ok with it. Especially since that included rush shipping during one of the worst snow storms ever...and it still got here on time. The only real problem I can foresee with this packer is attachment. I feel like adhesive might be the best way to go. There's plenty of room for a standard harness, but the area between the shaft and balls seems a little delicate. I'm worried a traditional ring style harness or anything too tight might cut through the material over time (a common problem). One nit-picky thing I have is the coloring. The match is great, but there really isn't much variation or any "stand out" detailing.
i'm not sure if this is a common issue with darker tones...perhaps there's just naturally a difference in the level of tonal variation in light and dark penises. I would have liked a bit more...something, though. But again, this is nitpicky. I really don't mind all that much. This will be a great holdover until I can justify an RM purchase.

Ok, I am a little confused between the difference of your "packer" and what Seb is describing.
What I think YOU purchased was a 6" ultra realistic item. It does not have the term "packer" next to it on the order page (I understand you bought it off a sale page), but on the order page it is on the same line as the "flaccid packer". Therefore, your item would be longer than the "flaccid packer" on the order page. Is this correct?
Seb, what you ordered was the single density "flaccid packer". This one would have been $149 and the length from the top of the cup to the tip of the penis is 5inch for uncircumcised and 6inch for circumcised. Is this correct?
Seb, if the above is correct, I have three questions:
1) is the weight of the packer heavier/lighter than the basic RM packer?
2) When you have them hanging side by side, which packer is longer (the entire packer...if you are measuring the top of the back to the bottom of the scrotum. Or however it should be measured to figure out when it is hanging on your body which one will hang lower on my thighs, if that makes sense).
2) Which one is squishier/softer? Meaning, which one can be flattened more against the body? Mr. Limpy for example can be squished more than RM.
Hope this post wasn't confusing. Thanks, guys!

Nope, I'm the one being confusing. Sorry about that!
I use the term "packer" very loosely and not at all in any official capacity. All of your observations are correct re: what I ordered.
I agree with Brett that it's sometimes a little confusing when "packer" is used loosely, but I do appreciate that there are some excellent reviews lately that will be very useful to our community.
Perhaps I'll write up about Pac-man. I've never seen a review.

Great. Thank you.
I am considering ordering the flaccid packer, but I won't if it is:
a) heavier than RM
b) the balls hang further down the body than RM. Unfortunately, you really can't tell by the measurements.
Hopefully Seb will circle back to this thread, soon.
From what I have gleamed from another post I found Seb wrote, plus info from Sinthetics, I can answer my own questions. For those who are interested:
1) Sinthetics, is a bit "squishier" than basic RM
2) Sinthetics is actually HEAVIER than RM (which I think is already too heavy). RM is 9.2oz (both basic packer and prosthetic). Sinthetics told me their packer(s) are 11oz.
3) The shaft is longer on the Sinthetics and the packer as a whole is bigger.
Based on the above, I am not going to order even though I like the look of them. RM is already too heavy for my preferences. I wish someone made a good silicone packer Mr. Limpy's size (3.5"), with 3-D balls (hell even w/o 3-D balls). I'm be a very happy guy, then!
Thanks to everyone for posting such great info
