Armed robber breaks into store… to steal $250 sex doll

Police in Iowa City have released a CCTV image of an armed robber who entered an US adult entertainment store one thing in mind - stealing a $250 'Mega Masturbator' sex doll.

Police are appealing for information over the incident, which occurred at 3am on January 12. All that is known about the assailant is that he stands 5,8" tall and held a hunting knife to a store worker before making off with his swag.

Thankfully, no one was hurt in the incident, though police are appealing for information that could lead to the arrest of the suspect. Iow City CrimeStoppers are offering a reward of up to $1,000 for information.

As for the product itself, it is believed that the armed robber walked out with the 'F*ck Me Silly' version of the Mega Masturbator, which does indeed retail for the eye-watering price of around $250.

According to a reader review on Amazon, the product is great except for that it "Has a bit of a chemical smell even after being left to air out for a week or so." Really? How big is someone's back garden that they don't feel weird about airing out a headless female sex toy for a week?
