Toy Figurine and Packaging

A toy play set, comprising:

• a toy figurine;
• a vessel within which the toy figurine is packaged, the vessel defining a sealable compartment that, when sealed, defines a fixed volume;
• and
• a dissolvable layer disposed on the toy figurine to obscure clothing of the toy figurine underlying the dissolvable layer, wherein the fixed volume of the sealable compartment is sized to receive an amount of fluid sufficient to fully dissolve the dissolvable layer and, once dissolved, the dissolvable layer renders the amount of fluid opaque, and wherein the vessel is at least partially transparent so that, when the dissolvable layer is dissolved and opaque fluid is removed, the clothing of the toy figurine is visible.

• and
• (a) opaque outer packaging that, when disposed on at least a portion of the vessel, hides at least a portion of the toy figurine positioned therein from view, (b) accessories that match the clothing of the toy figurine and are packaged in obscure packaging so that the obscure packaging and the dissolvable layer collectively hide an identity of the toy figurine, or (c) both the opaque outer packaging of (a) and the accessories of (b).
