A beloved toy from the '90s anime era is set to return. Tamashii Nations, a toy brand under Bandai, will reissue the original Moon Stick toy from the magical girl franchise Sailor Moon. This iconic wand was a staple for fans of the series during the 1990s.
The upcoming release is inspired by the wand featured in the '90s Sailor Moon anime and will be part of Tamashii Nations' Resparkle collection. The original 1992 toy was known to light up and play a jingle when its star button was pressed. It is anticipated that the new Resparkle edition will feature these same interactive elements. Fans can expect more details to be unveiled this weekend at the Tokyo Toy Show 2026, taking place on August 29 and 30, where the first Moon Stick in the new collection will be showcased.
While Bandai has produced various Sailor Moon toys and replicas over the years, including a life-size Proplica version released in 2014 and reissued in 2024 for its 10th anniversary, the upcoming Resparkle Moon Stick aims to recapture the essence of the original '90s toy. Unlike the detailed replicas, this new release is positioned more as a toy for fans.
Specifics regarding the release date, price, and pre-order availability have not yet been disclosed. Information about these details is expected to follow as the Tokyo Toy Show progresses. Despite the excitement for the return of the classic toy, some fans have expressed a desire for Bandai to continue developing the Proplica replica series instead.
