Abstract
A toy figure has a loosely held skeleton with multiple structural elements resembling or simulating bones of the skeleton. The skeleton also includes a fluid or liquid material that resembles a soft tissue coupled to a portion of the structural elements. In addition, a play set includes a receptacle in which a viscous fluid is located so that a portion of the skeleton can be moved to engage the fluid. A child can move a portion of the skeleton away from the receptacle, thereby displaying the fluid on the structural elements.
