I have no idea what this is and I am torn between my curiosity and the preservation of my innocence.
Bad dragon sells adult sex toys of a wide variety, most common being dildos. Dildos that are modeled off of dragons or other fantasy-esque creatures.
I kinda want one.
Who am I kidding. Not even kinda. I absolutely want one. A specific model and everything. I just cannot remotely afford it and likely never will…
I just cannot remotely afford it
Let be honest, prices is kinda insane there. Imagine someone, who deliberately would tell “oh, $200 for a silicon toy that I will not use more then one time or even probably never, that I wanna buy just for pure esthetic purpose. What a steal!”.
Use one time? Please. I want to ride that thing so much it develops sentience just to escape from me. If I had the money I’d buy it in a fucking heartbeat and have zero regrets. Alas I have already purchased my Christmas gifts for me and even if I saved all that money it wouldn’t add up to one of those dildos. I am what is known as extremely fucking poor.
INB4 !Risa organizes a fundraiser to gift @Stamets a giant dildo in appreciation for all the memes.
I mean… I wouldn’t say no.
I’ll throw in $5 towards your giant unicorn schlong. Tis the season and all.
It’s an ice dragon actually, thank you very much!
I’ll match that.
Where is this fundraiser?
Direct in my paypal baby.
Where do I find that?

OP is the real entertainment of this post
I feel like I learned so much about you today Stamets…
All goes downhill from here
Well now I’m envisioning a giant dildo inching away like an inchworm
Over $100 is pretty normal for a high quality silicone toy. BD toys are often somewhat large and have many options such as firmness and color available upon request. They could probably get away with selling their $200 products for closer to $150 and still make a profit, but they’ve established themselves as the top dog (pun somewhat intended) of a very niche market and can get away with charging a premium.
And I think the vast majority of folks who purchase from them have every intention of using their products way more than once.
So, they’re the Lexus of sex toys?
Sexus.
$200 isn’t bad for something bespoke and handmade. A good dildo of similar quality that’s mass produced is $50, not to mention that Bad Dragon usually has unique coloring and can be made huge.
Let be honest, not everyone lives in USA\Canada. From where I’m from, average salary about ~500 euro and a good toy costs a lot less. So, paying 180 from your month income just for dildo is kinda too much for average person in Balkans part of Europe, Russia (well, delivering not working for them anyway, cause they cosplaying nazi Germany), most of Asia (except China, Japan and some other countries) and maybe Africa, but we not talking about them there. Not to mention, that just what I remember (too lazy to google average salary for every part of world) and I have one friend from USA, that also struggles to get decent income to afford at least food, so yea, even statistics can be controversial on those. Don’t know how situation in Australia tho, but those guys have spiders, they don’t need dragon toys. My point is, that $200 for a toy is too much. That a luxury item at this point, like a premium car or maxed out macbook. That a bit weird, but it is what it is I guess.
A maxed out macbook costs about 17 times more than that toy, and a premium car is no less than 150 times the cost. You are way, way off on your comparisons.
That being said, these dildos ARE luxury items. These are custom made to order dildos and get freakishly big, they are NOT your average sex toy, and the price reflects that. People aren’t paying $200 for just any dildo, they’re paying $200 for a Bad Dragon dildo.
I agree with you (that they are a luxury purchase), but the point I was trying to get across is that they are worth their cost (in silicone + labor), unlike the items you pointed out which come with famously generous margins.
They’re a bit up there in terms of pricing, but they’re good quality. Last I checked them out, Masterwork Toys on Etsy had better prices, but quality is comparable. Aesthetically I much prefer the one I have from them, it’s just a bit large. They’ve since introduced sizing options though!
If you’re in the EU you’ll also face import costs though. A $300 order from Bad Dragon can easily become a $500 with import fees. Speaking from experience.
Curiosity won out and I looked them up. Far tamer than what my imagination was cooking up.
Did you notice that they have a clearance section for those not particular about coloring?
Far tamer than what my imagination was cooking up.
It gets saucier if you log in and turn on Fantasy Mode.
MeatCanyon on YouTube, a horror movie buff and animator, was making vids with a giant bad dragon tentacle just wobbling around on his desk.
Fuckkng hilarious lol
That’s how they wrote it off as tax deduction.
Even if you can’t afford it you probably can’t get the one you want anyways cuz they don’t sell them directly anymore…
You have to wait for a drop and then you only get whatever they have in stock. It’s been going on since covid and it kind of sucks.
Which model though?
One large ‘Kelvin the Ice Dragon’ please.
Just setup one of those Amazon wishlists or whatever. U never noe!
I have one I’ve shared somewhere and haven’t fully recovered from that yet. Not used to gifts. But alas Bad Dragon isn’t on Amazon
Amazon Basics sex toy. That would sell.
It would sell and I can almost garuntee it wouldn’t be made out of a body safe material.
I mean, if CVS can do it, why can’t amazon?
Oooh, yeah! Kelvin is lovely! Good choice!
Dem ridges. Hnng.
Now that you mention it, he’s a bit like a longer Fenrir isn’t he? My main gripe with Fenrir is that he’s not very long.
I don’t need/want one, but I do want this cup.
I do think they’re neat though.
I assume dragon penis dildos.
And many others, but yes
Ok, seems like it’s a company that sells furry and scaley themed sex toys.
I’m guessing it’s like furries, without the fur. A scaley??
Both; I have two ligers (lion+tiger hybrid; discontinued, don’t recall his name), and a werewolf (David). Some are staples like the original Duke (the “bad dragon”) or Chance (horse). Others come and go. There are also several competitors which I haven’t been a customer of myself (Primal Hardware is a big one). My master has toys from both BD and PH, and seems to like the toys from both.
Dildos, larger then your forearm and shape like dragon dongs. Great fir really kidnapping your princess.
Sex toys aside, that’s a great logo and I’d be proud of any graphic designer that made that
It’s just a dragon head?
A cursory search for “dragon head icon” might clarify just how colossal the volume of shite designs truly is. This is clean, legible, and distinct.
Dude just really likes dragons I guess
My wife has a BD sticker on her water bottle. We joke about it, either you know what it is and are likely having a laugh or just assume it’s a normal brand you just don’t know.
If you own a BD product, you’re likely at least semi okay with sex. It’s good fun stuff :)
Someone somewhere has 14" dildo with a coffee cup sticker on it.
That could be me, if I had a coffee cup sticker!
I have a sticker from my pork supplier but I don’t have any dildos that need stickers.
We should get together.
They already said they have a pork supplier, but good hustle there.
Maybe I’d like to get porked.
I bet there are several with “My Little Pony” logos.
Just assert your dominance by saying how you love using their products
Or, allude to a quote from classic media, and comment “I haven’t seen that since grade school.”
Knowing the folks that want bad dragons, I think they want that kind of public humiliation

Being aware of one of the most widely known sex equipment companies on the internet means being a degen from up north eh? I dunno…
It’s called equipment now?! Back in my day they were battery operated “personal massagers.”
fellas, is it a genetic defect to masturbate?
Semen retention grants super powers or something
With something that makes a standard football look small?
Just hope no one in HR is also never seeing the light of Heaven else you’re in trouble
No one in HR is ever seeing the light of Heaven from anywhere but below.
“no, not gaming, but they are in entertainment.”
Oh cool, what do they do?
Fantasy roleplay.
Oh, like Dungeons and Dragons?
Yes, and no.
I didn’t know this store existed. They really do have some tasteful degeneracy sticks on offer I have to admit.
Oh there are so many of these! Nothosaur is a Japanese company. They have a lot of interesting models that are a bit more out there than what you’d see at BD.
Weredog is UK based, and very similar to Bad Dragon. I think they’ve had some sort of cooperation in the past? Unsure.
Since I’m Swedish I also have to mention Twilight Meadow, based in Sweden. They have some Nordic Folklore inspired ones. They’ve a few new models, and I think they’ve updated an old one. Very tempting. 👀
Well, those were a series of interesting rabbit holes (no pun intended)
Also, it reminds me of those anthropological finds of various phalluses that are described as ‘ritualistic objects’ in dry academic texts…nope, they were totally dildos.
Who knows in several thousands of years they’ll be digging up Bad Dragon dildos and holes and describing them as ‘ceremonial objects’
We all pray in our own ways, after all.
Also a lot of swag. Imagine getting a gift from them and it’s fucking playing cards.
Until someone google’s it, gets called to HR for their browsing history, and then rats you out
Exactly my thought, this might be clever in a world where Google doesn’t live in your pocket.
Is it sexual harassment if I ask if I can witness it’s use?
Yes. Not about harassment part tho.
“i put their products in my butt. sexually. anyway, I’ll be working on Spring '24 intake appraisals at least half the day, so can we reschedule the reaccreditation debrief for tomorrow?”
