2025’s perfect Christmas gift? The Akidas Predator football is in stock ready for the festive season
Have you ever wanted to do kick ups with Purple Aki’s face over and over again? Or let off some steam by beating up a stuffed version of the urban legend’s face? Well, thanks to the international sex doll company, Inferno, now you can.
Inferno specialise in creating life-like romance dolls based on the likeness of porn stars, influencers and even bizarre urban legends that would roam Merseyside trying to feel people’s muscles.
The latest additions to their catalogue, after much demand, include a ‘Purple Akidas Predator football’ for £19 and a ‘Purple W-Aki head’ for people to use and abuse for £1,515.
In August this year, Akinwale Arobieke died, aged 64, when he was found unresponsive in his Liverpool home.
After his death, there was an outpouring of revelations on social media of Scousers’ close encounters with Purple Aki.
These encounters often allegedly began with a compliment or request to feel a youngster’s biceps.
But encounters with Purple Aki could quickly turn into aggressive sexual assaults and demands to feel thigh muscles.

Who was Purple Aki?
In 1986, Arobieke was given a 30 month prison sentence after being found guilty of the involuntary manslaughter of 16-year-old Gary Kelly, who jumped from a railway platform and was electrocuted.
However, he successfully appealed against his conviction and was awarded £35,000.
During the 1990s, he became an ‘urban myth’ in Merseyside, Liverpool after approaching young men and asking permission to touch their muscles.
In 2003, he was sentenced to six years in prison for 15 charges of harassment and witness intimidation.
He was made subject of a Sexual Offences Prevention Order (SOPO) while he was in prison, which banned him from touching men’s muscles, going to gyms or asking people to do squats in public.
Arobieke touched a man’s biceps without permission and was jailed for 15 months for breaching the SOPO within six months of when it was issued.
In 2010, he was arrested and sentenced to two and a half years for touching a 16-year-old boy’s muscles but he claimed to have been set up.
Again in 2015, he was arrested and charged with harassing a young man on a train from Manchester – which he also claimed he had been falsely accused.
A year later his SOPO was lifted after an appeal.
After suing the Chief Constable of Greater Manchester Police or malicious prosecution and misfeasance in public office, Arobieke received a substantial payout in 2022.
Inferno were besieged by demands for an Aki doll and DIY plastic versions of the ‘urban myth’ which led to them making the football and head just in time for Christmas.
The sex doll company believe they are entering the mass consumer market with what could be this year’s must-have Christmas present for Merseyside and beyond.
For those wanting the football wrapped under their Christmas tree, they will find it with patchwork pictures of the Purple Aki’s face on a ball that pays homage to the iconic Adidas football boot from the early 1990s.
The ball is even the official regulation size meaning this ball could get kicked around during a professional football game.

Inferno aim for the Akidas Predator to be a cheeky iconic popular culture product, used for practical jokes.
Instructions how to use part of the football for a Christmas tree decoration will be published on Inferno’s social media accounts closer to the festive season.
Akinwale Arobieke’s long-held fascination with pumped up physiques led to notoriety and repeated brushes with the law.
Usually beginning with a compliment or request to feel a youngster’s biceps encounters with Purple Aki could quickly turn into aggressive sexual assaults and demands to feel thigh muscles.
Inferno founder Ben Stroud, described Purple Aki as ‘Liverpool’s bogeyman’, said: ‘As a company we have always responded to customer demand. And we kept on seeing comments and messages about Purple Aki after he died.
‘The phrase ‘he touched so many lives’ was trending on Twitter so I asked a few Liverpool friends about him and was just amazed at the story. So the requests for products made sense.
