Hi everyone! Emisil is set to release their STP very soon. I'm a tester for them, and I have reviewed the final tester model I was sent, and I'm highly impressed. Check it out, and let me know if I can help with any clarification!

Hey, Max, great review. Thank you for taking the time to write it and link it here.
Although I am quite pleased with my EZP STP, I have always loved the look of the Emisil prosthetics. I hope this STP does well.
Do you feel that this improved model won't tear/break on the spot where the tester did?
Hey guys. Nathan, I have stretched and felt up the area where the original model ripped. This new one feels extremely reinforced and thicker.
They told me the original one they sent was only made for taking photos and they didn't bother pouring all of the layers of silicone. This one feels much stronger, but I will keep you posted of course!

That makes sense to me.
That sounds about right yea.
Also, what kind of harnas do you wear it with?

My favourite harness is one with an O-ring, waistband, and back straps that you can buy or easily make yourself. It is simple but the O ring helps to hold it firmly in place, and the straps that go around my buttocks help to keep it from swinging around. I haven't had much luck yet with waistband-only harnesses or the built-in underwear ones.
Hey guys. Just wanted to keep you posted. The Emisil STP is great, but they are insistent on making it even better before release. I have provided some feedback about potential issues with the ball placement, tears, etc. And they are going to send me another tester before releasing. Just wanted to keep you all in the loop and aware if why it isn't for sale yet!
That's a shame now though. Since I actually cancelled my Freetom that I ordered on the sale say because I thought it would actually come out now..

I thought he had already fixed your ball placement concerns before your last review? Can you tell us more about tearing? That is a bit concerning.

Oh, man that sucks. I would suggest contacting Emisil directly and finding out where he is in the process of release.
Have you considered the Reel Magik STP? Emisil may be only a little bit less (I would ask him how much he suspects it will be). RM you can also adhere (although you hear mixed reviews about that working..maybe it was only one review where I saw that it working consistently for a guy). RM also looks that it would be more comfortable against your junk all day instead of the funnel shape of Emisil.
In my opinion it'll be worth the wait, and I value a company that isn't willing to release a product that still has room for improvement. But it's up to you. Just thought I should keep everyone posted.
I don't think it will be too much longer than planned. A couple more weeks while they make a reinforced model and send it to me.
The company's customer service and communication are fantastic despite the slight language barrier.
Also as far as the concerns, at the time of my review it was fine but with more and more wear I began to worry again and believe there was room for reinforcement. I agree that that is concerning which is why he isn't releasing it until we agree it is ready. I know it's disappointing, I'm eager for it to be right too. If you can't wait that's your call I just thought I'd keep everyone posted in the creation process.
We need to remember that I am a tester and it does work in phases I don't get finished products right away. I just like to keep everyone informed so I share what I know. I just want all of us to have access to great Prosthetics and I wouldn't want to lie to any of you guys!
I will continue to stay in touch with you and with Emisil through the process :) I will email them today letting them know there are guys awaiting their release. Hopefully that will speed things along!
Thanks for the posts in response, maxman.

I feel bad that you guys are disappointed. I'm not officially a member of the company, I just test the products. Trust me I was just as disappointed when it wasn't perfect. I hope they get it right soon!! I'm just as anxious as you guys for it to come out. I'm also trying to get my hands on a reelmagik to compare.
I'm really sorry if anyone is feeling misled or unhappy with my reviews. I'm just a regular guy like you guys trying to do the best I can to make stuff better for us!! :)
You get me wrong. I'm fine with you being a tester and improving a work in progress and such. It's just that Emisil keeps saying 'end of this month' and has been saying that for months in a row now. I wanted to try the Freetom and the sale was a good excuse, but then I received word that the Emisil packer would actually really come out now that Freetom would be a waste of money. So now them reinforcing it and having to send it to you can easily take 1 - 2 months if you look at the last time that happened. It's not that I want to spend a lot of money on a faulty product, I just really thought/hoped I could get my hands on it soon.
The Reelmagick stp model looks too focussed on adhering with the large tab and I wouldn't want to use it like that. It's rather heavy as well and wearing it with a harnas would quickly wear down the elastic I recon.
maxman, no worries. I am very happy with my EZP STP and have no plans to buy the Emisil. I just have always liked the look of Emisil products, so I am hoping this goes well. Some day I would like to buy an erect model, even though I know I would have to wear it in a harness.
Even though I have the STP /packer that works for me, I continue to be interested in what is out there in hopes that guys find the best one for them.
The only thing I don't like about the EZP is that it doesn't have a system where the balls hang over the shaft to pack, but there are always trade offs with these things.
I still hope folks keep the EZP in mind, although they are hard to get. The owner actually hit his "max" order number literally 5 minutes after sales started this past round.
The EZP is certainly not for everyone, though. Some guys (seems to be the young ones), like to have a whopper of a packer in their pants and for sure the EZP is not that! Too, not everyone can use it. Unless you have several inches of room between your thighs when you spread your legs at the toilet, you won't be able to use it. It is soft and will collapse against itself.

I hear your frustration dude! Trust me I'm also upset it isn't ready.
In my opinion, you can never have too many dicks haha I like to test them all.. Until I find perfection.
I'll continue to keep ya posted with whatever I know.
I agree with the scepticism of reelmagik. I worry about the angle of their funnel for STP and the adhering as well. I've never been able to have success with adhesive.

I checked out the ezp I think.. I think the main issue for me was lack of realism and ability to just "whip it out and go".. Too much fiddling, positioning, etc triggers large amounts of dysphoria for me. Are you able to use it at urinals and pass and such with it?
I just got word back from Emisil saying that they will start selling it this month..

I disagree that it doesn't look real. The shaft looks quite real and there is no problems with urinals. It is also very comfortable in your pants with no harness. It doesn't move around as long as you are wearing somewhat tighter briefs. There is no "fiddling around". You simply spread your legs, tuck it between them and go. Give it a lift to make sure all the pee is out from the ball, and tuck it back through the fly of your underwear.
Being that the shaft is 3 inches in length, it is the normal male size shaft, making it quite believable when dressed, rather than ridiculously obvious that you have a male prosthetic in your pants. You blend in quite well with natal males with this STP/packer. Also, the balls sit out in front, not hanging between the legs, so it doesn't effect movement/comfort. It is so light you don't even feel that there is anything in your pants. It just becomes a natural part of you.
I have no plans to seek out another packer STP. I plan to just use this one until Metoidioplasty with hookup (hopefully in 1.5 years).

Great! They told me they think they have fixed all concerns and will be sending me a new one of their recent design as soon as it's produced.

Thanks, good to know it's worked so well for you!
I'm also getting a reelmagik and freetom in the next few weeks so I will do some comparisons.
Any kind of ballpark for the cost? I'm in the market for an stp and this one seems pretty intriguing, but if it's too far out of my price range I don't want to bother waiting.
They told me it'll be $340,-
They have a new website layout online. It has an stp section, just no products to buy yet. But it's a good start..! ;)
All this is making me super anxious. Lol. I just ordered both the ReelMagik STP a couple weeks ago (and FreeTom 4in1 to hold me over during the long wait.)
I hate harnesses and positioning has been a frequent issue for easy access, so I committed myself to making the adhesive work with RM. I too have heard a lot of mixed reviews on RM but the realism and adhesive sold me. I hope it's worth the $.
Aside from not adhering like the rest of their products, Emisil's STP looks promising. I'd like to try it but at the same time I hope I don't need it. lol
I hope you don't need it, for your bankaccount and for the hassle haha.
But yea, I would't want to adhere it and the RM seems quite heavy so that why I'm waiting for the Emisil one. ;) I keep checking the website but it's not coming online..
