It usually triggers the transformation, summons a weapon or stores energy, and is tied to the character's own colours and costume design.\n\n## Merchandising\n\nToy companies develop the items as toys with sound and light mechanisms and sell them in series tied to each work: Bandai has released Sailor Moon transformation toys since 1992 and Pretty Cure ones since 2004. Figure makers also sculpt the character together with the item, as in Good Smile Company's Nendoroid line.\n\nSee also：[[concept_magical_girl|Magical girl]]、[[work_sailor_moon_henshin_toys|Sailor Moon transformation toys]]、[[work_pretty_cure_henshin_toys|Pretty Cure transformation toys]]、[[work_madoka_magica_nendoroid|Nendoroid Puella Magi Madoka Magica series]]\n\nSee also：[[concept_magical_girl|Magical girl]]、[[work_sailor_moon_henshin_toys|Sailor Moon transformation toys]]、[[work_pretty_cure_henshin_toys|Pretty Cure transformation toys]]、[[work_madoka_magica_nendoroid|Nendoroid Puella Magi Madoka Magica series]]\n\nSee also：[[concept_magical_girl|Magical girl]]、[[work_sailor_moon_henshin_toys|Sailor Moon transformation toys]]、[[work_pretty_cure_henshin_toys|Pretty Cure transformation toys]]、[[work_madoka_magica_nendoroid|Nendoroid Puella Magi Madoka Magica series]] \u003c!-- see-also --\u003e",
