Here in Brazil there's a famous brand of chocolate called Baton. The chocolate sells well in general, but lots of kids ask for their eggs during Easter, and they usually come with toy cars or action figures or a water gun or whatever.

In one particular Easter, the eggs came with a toy that was a long cylinder with a smaller, rounded tip at one end.

This cylinder had just one feature: it vibrated a lot when you turn it on.

It also came with a minuscule pen, with almost no ink, you could attach to the device. Their explanation was that it was a fun vibrating pen toy. When asked how's a pen that vibrates any fun or useful, they had no answer, and why the device was significantly larger than the actual pen, also no answer.

So for Easter that year, kids got a penis-shaped vibrating toy... And a pen.

Who doesn't love a good old vibrating pen!

In the US in the 90's there was a pen, IIRC it was marketed as the Squiggle Writer, which was basically that. Fairly large plastic pen that had a vibrator at the far end, and interchangeable ballpoints that could be slotted into the writing end. When running, as you wrote with it it would cause the pen to draw little loops.

It was a plausibly deniable sex toy.
