Do you mean a sticker on the base of a plastic toy? They can be a pig. I had something like that on a Sputnik once. The residue was stuck hard (and the label) and just wouldn’t come off. In the end it was a lot of soaking and scrubbing with one of those sponges with a green scourer backing plus fairy liquid. It still left some sticky feeling so more scrubbing with fairy and a scourer. I think I gave up removing it entirely and the very slight stickiness left was on the outside so not likely to cause an issue.
