Massive £200k stash of ‘useful’ male intercourse toys hijacked by brazen practice bandits

Thieves bagged an incredible haul of “high-performance handjob machines” after a brazen train heist, leaving sex-tech firm Ohdoki feeling deflated

Brazen bandits pulled off a climax-stopping heist after making off with a massive haul of high-tech “handjob machines” from a freight train.

The heavy-duty raid saw a shipment of adult toys vanish into thin air as the train travelled across the US, leaving the manufacturers feeling more than a little deflated.

The train pulled into Dallas, Texas, on February 16, but when workers went to unload the cargo, they found the seals broken and the products missing.

Two entire pallets of the adult gadgets had been snatched somewhere between Los Angeles and the end destination. The loot consisted of products from Ohdoki, a “sex tech” firm based in Norway.

According to the company’s formal complaint, the thieves made off with 289 “The Handy Massage 2 PRO” units and 330 “The Handy Massage 2 REG” units.

The total value of the stolen goods is a whopping $250,000, which sits at roughly £198,000.

According to the company’s own website, the “Handy” is described as a “high-performance handjob machine designed to bring masturbation into the future.” The company has confirmed that the missing kit hasn’t been tracked down.

Meanwhile, a Canadian sex shop boss recently found herself in the middle of a war on butt plugs.

Grace Bennett, the co-founder of Toronto-based Bonjibon, was left reeling after receiving a stern “cease and desist” letter straight from the Pentagon.

It turns out the US Department of War isn’t a fan of “backdoor diplomacy,” as they intercepted a stray parcel of bedroom toys destined for the Middle East.

The high-level drama kicked off when US Naval Forces Central Command in Bahrain rumbled a shipment of “pornographic devices.”

While the Kingdom has strict rules against such kit, a baffled Grace told CTV News Toronto that her shop doesn’t even ship to the region.

It’s suspected a randy member of the military tried to have the toys forwarded from another base, only to have the high-brass put a firm plug in their plans.
