In 1971, manufacturers started to import mini-motors from Japan to make electric toys, and by 1974, the first mini-motor plant had been erected in Taiwan, making the mass production of electric toys possible.
民國六十年，玩具業者從日本進口小型馬達，開始生產電動玩具。初期由於生產所需的小型馬達無法自行製造，輸入者成本較高，所以發展緩慢。民國六十三年，我國第一座小型馬達製造工廠成立，電動玩具便開始大力拓展外銷。
