United Consortium Makes a Splash with Bucked Line at ANME

LOS ANGELES — United Consortium’s Bucked line of liquids “created by gay men for gay men” was showcased at the recently concluded Adult Novelty Manufacturers Expo (ANME).

Featuring leather-scented masturbation creams like Smokey Wrangler, or realistic cum play products like Phantom — "a slick and stringy white lubricant that looks and feels almost exactly like semen," a rep said — Bucked creates products designed for the specific needs of gay men.

“Stride and Mount are the silicone and hybrid lubes on offer, with formulations that include vitamin E, coconut oil and aloe vera, which acts as a healing agent,” explained the rep. “It doesn’t hurt that the packaging is beautifully designed with sumptuous rich dark colors like dark blue, burgundy, teal, grey and burnt sienna. Faux saddle stitches pull the colors together and the overall look and feel screams high quality, masculine and sexy.”

Richard Anderson, Bucked’s lead consultant and brand developer said he had no doubt Bucked would be a hit at ANME, "because the energy and buzz from June Pride month has spilled over into July."

“We showcased the line all over the country at LGBTQ Pride events to show our support and commitment to the gay community, and the reaction was overwhelmingly positive. So we thought, ‘Why not bring that positivity to ANME by showing some footage of all the fun we had,'" added Anderson.

The video screen at the Bucked booth featured a highlight reel of its successful national tour, which, according to the rep, included “gorgeous male models in riding gear handing out free samples — and a spank for anyone who asked!”

“The fun of the spectacle was contagious, and once again Bucked was one of the busiest booths at the show,” enthused the rep.

“We’re so thrilled with our four distribution partners on this venture — East Coast News , Williams Trading, Nalpac and National Video,” said Victoria McCrobie, U.S. account development exec at United Consortium. “We couldn’t have come this far without them and we’re looking forward to a very successful next quarter together.”
