I've been trying to research reviews and haven't come up with much. I've found a couple on youtube of guys showing their prosthetics and stuff but that's not enough to make a wise decision.
So from what I've learned im going to make a pros and cons list. And see what you guys think, or if any of you have personally tried one or both.

I chose lolajake and likereal because their prices are around the same range, compared to ftmprosthetics.

For me,
Pro:
Lolajake offers mainly circumsized models.
Lolajake is in the USA.
Lolajake offers pack, pack and play, and play.
3D balls.

Likereal has very realistic looking prosthetics, no shinyness.
Likereal offers a stp option that doesn't work, but their thinking is in the right direction.
Likereal has tabs that aren't hugemongous.

Con:
Lolajake is very shiny.
The sam plus looks HUGE.
Their tabs are thick.

Likereal has their focus on non-circumsized models.
Flat back balls.



Imo, if these two companies were to combine maybe they'd make something more ideal. I heard lolajake is supposedly working on the shinyness issue, it is not realistic looking at all and I've heard cornstarch doesn't even help.

Does anybody have any input, ideas, opinions, experinces they'd like to share?

I have 2 lola jakes and here is what I have found:
The shininess has gone away.
The 3D balls are cool but tend to get in the way at times.
Check on the weight of the one you are buying I bought a Lucas plus and it was just so heavy the glue had a hard time keeping it on for any length of time.
I also bought the sam (not plus) and it is good at times I wish I had gotten the 3D balls but not sure if I would have rubbing problems with it. The Sam is pretty small on the play side of things but can do the job.
I am going to see what the new Tyron (or whatever it is called) is like when it comes out.
In the end I am pretty happy with the Sam but you may want to go for the plus version.
I am also not a huge guy so the Lucas was just too big for my frame in the end.
Cheers

Feel free to drop me an email if you have any specific questions, its a lot of money to invest.

I don't have a Like Real but I have a Lola Jake so I can only say what I've heard about Like Real.  As for the Lola Jake model I have the Chris.

Lola Jake

PROS -
Very realistic.
3D Balls are awesome.
The tab is big enough to hold something for a long time.
The adhesive works really well WITH the tape kit.
Good size for sex, but not that big for sex.
Internal pleasure rod. (Not sure if Like Real has one.)

CONS -
Comes shiny. (I emailed them about it and they said baby powder removes it.  I haven't tried that yet so I can't say for sure.)
The internal rods are VERY hard to get out with out A LOT of lube. (Not sure if it's easier to remove with the pleasure part or not.)
Won't stick well with out the tape kit.
Very big for packing for a smaller guy. (I'm about 5'9 so it's OK for me.)
The tab is very big. (Though you need it so it can stick.)
If you want it fast, you have to pay an extra $150.00

LIKE REAL

PROS -
Very realistic.
Not shiny.
Smaller tab.
STP option. (Doesn't work though.)

CONS -
VERY hard to keep it stuck on you for packing.  And next to IMPOSSIBLE during sex.
Tab is too small to hold the prosthesis
No 3D balls.
STP option doesn't work.

I've been tossing around this question in my mind a lot as well. Though I think I've come to the conclusion that I'd rather have a LolaJake than a LikeReal. What made me come to the conclusion is that the LikeReal had really big disadvantages that far outweighed its benefits. These include:
-The tab design is apparently horrible, it will NOT stick (or not easily). I've heard a guy on the forum saying it'd just fall off if he ever sat down.
-The STP doesn't work, not such a big deal because the LolaJake doesn't exactly have one.
-No pack and play model.

So, if you're not intending to use it for more than just a realistic packer then it's fine. However, I think it's pretty expensive for just a packer that you'd have to modify yourself to make an STP that works as well as cutting off the tab if it doesn't work for you. If they fixed their tab-stickability and STP (which looks pretty good in theory, but again is apparently horrible), then I'd say it was near-perfect even without pack and play.

Thanks for all the input guys, I appreciate it.

I was interested in the sam plus until I seen the video on it and its size compared to a gv packer, its pretty huge.

So I was thinking the one that's smaller than it which I think is the Chris.

Myles, how long did it take for the shinyness to go away? Does it look more lifelike?

Im thinking both will probably be too big for my small frame.

I have a like real so I can just tell you about that, I will be looking into either the tyron or a lolajake next time I need one.

Pros:
Really realistic
and thats about it lol

Makes a great everyday packer

Cons:

Adhesive sucks. The first time I stuck it on I shaved completely, it flipped upside down by time I was done walking around the house and forget doing anything physical with it on.

The "dual" model.. I couldn't make it work for sex if my life depended on it. It is too small and too soft.

The makeup stuff they send with it to make it less shiny makes it shinier, I just use baby powder.

Didn't get the stp option so can't pee with it on.

the tab seems huge but still doesn't help it stick so i ended up cutting some of it off because I don't use the adhesive.

Im looking into a prosthetic for multiple uses. So id either get a stp packer, or a pack and play since there's no good triple use one.

I was thinking more lolajake but I hear all these complaints about their shinyness. I want realism. So im leaning towards likereal but I want a circumseized one.
I didn't know likereal was shiny too?

likereal is only shiny if you put the stuff they give you to make it less shiny on it haha.

and one of the customizations you can do for the lolajake is an stp so... for the right amount of money you can have all three....

You might wanna do some research on that STP from lolajake. I've heard it wasn't worth it, but who knows it could've been changed.

yeah for the record I claim having no info on the quality of any stps, I rarely ever use one and never got one with my likereal I was just ensuring that everyone knew all the options.
