Las Vegas Novelties was a sex toy manufacturer.
History
It was co-founded by Serenity and Mark Goodman.[1] Serenity purchased Goodman's half of the company in 2001, becoming its sole owner.[1] Steve Lane was the Director of Operations, Robyn Hewitt was the Head of Domestic Sales, and Seth Andrea McCoy handled all press inquires.[2] The entire company, including its manufacturing and sculpting process, was based in Las Vegas.[3]
In New Zealand, the Las Vegas Novelties catalog was distributed exclusively by Vixen Direct.[4]
Products
Jewel De'Nyle and Jacklyn Lick were the first to sign with Las Vegas Novelties.[5] The company's first products, which were a mold of Serenity's buttocks and six dildos designed by her and De'Nyle, were released on September 1, 1999.[3] Additionally, both Serenity and De'Nyle did Pearl Necklace molds, which were replicas of their hands holding their breasts together.[6] De'Nyle also had a pocket pussy for the company.[6]
Las Vegas Novelties and Stormy Leather collaborated on two jelly dildo strap-on kits called Sapphic Desire, which included a non-leather harness and a sample tube of Astroglide.[7] The first Sapphic Desire kits were shipped to distributors on June 11, 2001.[7] Serenity and De'Nyle were featured on the kits.[7]
In July 2001, the first items of the Kylie Ireland Signature Series debuted at the Adult Novelties Manufacturers Expo shortly after Ireland signed an exclusive, five-year contract with Las Vegas Novelties.[8] Ireland also designed the Anal Twister for the company, along with Chloe.[9] Chloe, along with Tawny Roberts and Julie Meadows, was part of the VCA line of Las Vegas Novelties.[10] The company molded Roberts for a Foot Fantasy item.[10]
Las Vegas Novelties entered a co-branding agreement with Instinctive Seductions to include their massage oils and bath crystals in their Serenity's Sea of Solitude and Jewel's Cuddly Couple kits, which were introduced at the Adult Novelty Manufacturers Expo in July 2003.[11] The former kit included a 10-speed Decathlon Vibe and the latter kit included a Pulsator.[11] Both kits also contained candles, Astroglide lube and Vivid Condoms.[11]
In January 2002, Las Vegas Novelties signed Michael Stefano.[10] He had his penis molded for an eight-inch dildo.[6]
