Cheaper alternatives to hankeys toys and bad dragon?

[Erik715]

As the title suggest does anyone know of any sites in the US that sell similar toys to bad dragon and hankeys toys at cheaper prices and with discreet shipping?

On Aliexpress you can find what you are looking for at more affordable prices and with pick-up points for discreet delivery.

Most of my toys are jt but be warned - their silicone is probably the firmest you'll come across so always size down on order. Otherwise great toys. Don't know why they won't make softer to be honest. Aliexpress is a great place for cheap though

Smooth-On sells the easy to use, safe silicone in the durometer of choice in the US. Molds are personal preference (soda, water bottles etc) Those things can easily be reshaped with a little creativity.

Nothosaur is an alternative to Bad Dragon, although not as cheap.

They have an amazing variety and don't seem particularly expensive.

I have ALOT of experience with smooth-on. I used to work with it for my job. I used it to make molds for resin casting. Whenever I made a mold, I would try to mix a little extra so that i could make some toys. One of my favorites is a bowling pin (actual size) that I cast from a plastic bowling game. I still use that bowling pin as a plug quite often. I think I posted a guide for mixing and casting smooth on somewhere on here.
