* ''Anime/PrettyCure'' sells a variety of dolls, plushies, and toys based on the weapons/trinkets seen in the show. The dolls have been made since the original series, while the plushes started production in around 2008 (meaning only the ''Anime/FutariWaPrettyCureSplashStar'' girls don't have them).

* In ''Series/TheMandalorian'' the FirstEpisodeSpoiler was that the title bounty hunter would find and protect an infant of [[OldMaster Yoda's]] species, called "The Child" (until his actual name is revealed as Grogu) but with a dominant FanNickname of "Baby Yoda." The production was so desperate to maintain this secrecy they avoided ANY merchandise of the character to be made in advance. The sheer popularity of the character made industry experts suggest they lost tens of millions of dollars from that alone due to not having any t-shirts or plush toys for months afterward.
