Can't stop thinking about these extremely real and legitimate product photos from an Amazon listing for a 3P (or possibly a knockoff of a 3P) Transmetal 2 Megatron. Just Generic White Family genuinely enjoying these toys that they are definitely really interacting with.
@trixter I would love to see a study on Amazon product images. It’s basically an art form in and of itself. Take a generic stock photo and poorly photoshop the product in at the wrong scale. Do it 3-5 times per product. It's so consistent. Does it actually help sell the product? I'd love to know. Also that Cryotek color scheme looks pretty cool.
@bsokol I'm curious where the sellers get them, too. Is this part of some Amazon Seller Package? Do the product manufacturers provide them? DO they help at all? Because I know I'm exceptionally discerning but when I see that I assume the product is garbage. I've noped out of a lot of outdoors/cycling stuff because of poor quality photos and text.
@trixterpushing the tablet stylus out of the ad guy's hand No, look, fuck off, I hate photoshop and I could do this better than you. I hate you for making me want to fix this.
@Konghammer The photo models? I'm 100% certain if you poked around Amazon you'd see those exact same photos on a hundred different listings, with different toys shopped in. They're essentially stock photos.
