This romantic toy is hilarious, and sells for well under $10! Here are the directions: 1. Buy the toy 2. Tell all your friends about it 3. Treat the poor [rubberized creature](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blossom-pets) well 4. [Kiss it](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mama-duck-surprise) 5. Drown him in water mercilessly for 72 hours 6. Watch him mature 7. Take him out of the water, once he appears to be a 10-centimeter high a prince (no joke--this toy really works!) By the way, all steps other than 1, 5 and 7 are optional. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.3/10 - Popularity: 5% | Activity: 25% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Humor](https://www.trendhunter.com/humor) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Fairytale Toys:** Opportunity to create innovative toys that bring classic fairytale fantasies to life. - **Transforming Figures:** Disruptive innovation in the toy industry by creating figures that transform with the application of water. - **Magical Transformation:** The trend of creating toys that undergo magical transformations through simple actions such as adding water. ### Where This Applies - **Toy Manufacturing:** Opportunity for toy manufacturers to capitalize on the demand for innovative and interactive toys like fairy tale transformers. - **Children's Entertainment:** Innovation in the children's entertainment industry by introducing toys that offer unique and magical transformations. - **Gift and Novelty Retail:** Opportunity for gift and novelty retailers to attract customers with unique and enchanting toys like the fairytale transformers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Small Amphibious Plush Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/little-frog.md) - [Digital Fairy-Catching Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/got2glow-baby-fairy-finder.md) - [Aquatic Amphibian Children's Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tacos-frog.md) - [Fantastical Collectible Dolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fantasythemed-dolls.md) - [Career-Driven Fairy Dolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dream-ella.md) - [Mist-Making Genie Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/genie-mixie.md) - [Water-Activated Pet Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blossom-pets.md) - [Auto-Transforming Toy Robots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grimlock.md) - [Flower-Scented Collectible Dolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cry-babies-magic-tears-happy-flowers.md)
