One good way to show that something is a toy, toy-themed, or just mechanical is with a wind up key. Especially complements Toy Time, or alternatively, Clock Punk. It can also serve as a Weaksauce Weakness if something needs to be wound up to keep functioning. |

For completeness, one should mention the clockwork mouse Mr. Clicky, which the rats in The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents often use to set off traps. They carry several with them in their travels, having agreed to discontinue use of Mr. Squeaky since the sound of him being crushed was quite distressing to all. | |

Nano from Nichijou is a Ridiculously Human Robot, with the only indication that she's a robot at all being the wind-up key sticking out of her back. She desperately wants it removed so it won't be so blatantly obvious that she's a robot, but the Professor who built her thinks it's cute. Its only real function seems to be launching her big toe like a rocket. | |

In the Discworld novel Thief of Time, the History Monk protagonists use an experimental device called a portable procrastinator to artificially increase the amount of time they can use. It's worn on the back and powered by manually winding up the key. This is absolutely vital for their continued movement once time breaks, but only for one character. | |

Feed the Kitty: Marc Anthony takes a key off a toy car and pretends to wind up Pussyfoot with it to fool his owner into thinking that the cat is a toy. He succeeds, and Pussyfoot then gets himself into the aforementioned toy car, minus key. Marc Anthony finds it cute, until Pussyfoot manages to get the toy car working and starts driving erratically, possibly because of the aforementioned removal of the key. | |

The eponymous character from Gingiva is a woman whose head was replaced with a windup key. As indicated by Chatterteeth, this is customary procedure with the objective of transforming the subjects into mindless automatons that are expected to slave away at the factories for the rest of their days. Gingiva, however, managed to retain some of her personality while losing her memory. They embark on a quest to retrieve Gingiva's original head and hopefully her memories as well. | |

In Ninja Sentai Kakuranger, during the quest to obtain the Shinobi Scrolls, Tsuruhime had to undergo a test of her leadership skills. Since the other Kakurangers were busy obtaining their Scrolls elsewhere, Sandayuu gave her dolls that would mimic them. Unlike most examples of this trope, the dolls' wind-up keys were on the back of their necks. | |

Clockwork keys are an item drop at Thugnderdome in Kingdom of Loathing. They're significantly rarer than the other components of clockwork items; getting ten in a single run earns a trophy. They're also needed for the last stage of every clockwork item. | |
