La célèbre marque allemande Fun Factory has created a dolphin vibrator: the Dolly Dolphin II. And now I’ve got one, ta-da! The larger model (there’s a mini one too).
If there’s a “II” at the end of its name, there’s a reason for it. There really was a Dolly Dolphin I. You can still find this one on a few German sites that are so underground their design makes your eyes hurt, but it’s not very sexy, with its flat, red-and-black base.
But in the meantime, Dolly (the dolphin, not the cloned sheep) has levelled up. Let me introduce you to its features.
The dolphin, the second most intelligent species on the planet, according to Douglas Adams, and a great rescuer of surfers and shipwreck victims, is a very likeable little creature.
Charisma: an adorable dolphin vibrator
The Dolly Dolphin’s packaging is nothing special (cardboard, clear plastic, instructions, that’s it) and won’t be much use as a storage box for it. But never mind, it’s the dolphin we’re interested in, not its aquarium.
The animal is 18 cm long and 4 cm in diameter. Its shape is harmonious, cute and pleasing to the eye.
It’s made of silicone. Just as promised in the descriptions on the sites that sell it, it’s completely odourless (Mr Dolphin clearly brushes his fins well).
It vibrates, so inevitably it makes a sound (not exactly like this). But it’s a fairly quiet “Vrrr!”, perfectly acceptable for a vibrator.
Endurance
The cheeky marine mammal runs on two AA batteries.
To change the batteries, pull its base while pressing the two designated points. Don’t try to unscrew anything, or you risk breaking it. Personally, I did struggle a bit to open it (you don’t have to strain like a whale to do it, but the problem is, while you’re opening it, nothing tells you that you’re on the right track*um.., and you start wondering if you’re actually damaging the poor brand-new dolphin), but He managed it apparently without difficulty.
The Dolly Dolphin’s dexterity
The creature’s vibration strength is adjusted by turning a circular dial at its base. It’s handy for getting the intensity you want without having to think or hunt for the button while you’re using it, though there is one small drawback: just past maximum, if you keep turning, there’s a faint little click and it goes back to zero without warning.
The result: an instant turn-off for the user (me, in this case), unpleasantly surprised that Mr Dolphin has pulled the old “I’ve broken down” trick on her, followed by an existential question on the decidedly unsexy subject of “Yeah, but so what vibration setting am I on now? Medium? Maximum? Minimum? Oh, sod it, I’ll stop and have a close look at the dial!”.
On the other hand, its slender snout (the snout is very important), its sleek shape and flexible frame make the Dolly Dolphin easy to handle, whether you’re using it vaginally, clitorally, or both at once. It’s soft and flexible, and you can feel its vibrations along its entire length.
Power
It’s no vibration brute like the Body Wand, but the Dolly Dolphin II vibrates strongly enough to satisfy any user who knows how to handle it. It won’t get you there instantly either, but, at a gentle setting, it can be used without any problem for several orgasms in a row.
The Dolly Dolphin’s build
Mr Dolphin is sold on many sites as waterproof, suitable for use in the shower and bath. Searching online, I came across an account of the sad end of an oxidised vibrating dolphin. What’s more, lots of shops sell the Dolly Dolphin with the clear warning that it’s not waterproof, just splashproof. So I’m not going to risk hurting the animal; it’ll be staying on dry land.

Right, that’s enough of that, but I thought I heard a “Vrrr” just now. I’ll leave you to it, I’ve got something to do…
* Him: well, yes, the diagram in the instructions..
