My 1999 obsession of finding the Crystal duck. I had to buy roughly 50 eggs before I found him.

I'm guesing all these toys come in those little eggs. Just showing a pile of toys thrown together, doesn't really show off the toy too well.

very colorful - perhaps some order, instead of a pile - but then again...(?)

I think this might have been a tinier bit better if you'd filled the frame with toys instead of creating a mountain. I also really like the "Find the Object" idea -- but it wa a little too easy. Making the duck a little harder to find (less center of the image and right on top) would make the game a lot more fun to "play". Finally, the colors all seem a little dark. They don't really pop off the screen.

Cute. There is a little too much going on in this picture though to make it a good advertisement.
05/11/2002 07:00:00 AM
Well done! Is the duck a special prize?
05/10/2002 11:39:00 AM
cute idea but not appealing to the eye too busy.

A bit too much going on in this shot.

It's very interesting but it seems more messy or cluttered than appealing.

wow, you have a lot of this stuff don't you!? tip: use some desk lamps or other directional light to side light this so that the objects' 3 dimensional forms come out more. use your on camera flash only as a fill.

good idea. The Kinder Suprise egg seems lost in the pile of toys tho. Perhaps if you'd shoved the egg onto some platform and had it sticking out from the pile, you could have used a little DOF to blur the toys slightly

You made that too easy! : ) Beautiful colors. My only comment is rather lame. You ready? I would have preferred the whole frame filled with toys.

How could I vote otherwise. Our whole family is addicted to Kinder Eggs and their creative toys!

it's a nice, colourful photo, but i think the lighting is a bit dim. A brightly coloured backdrop would have added to it.
05/06/2002 10:30:00 PM
i dont know, a mountain of toys doesnt seem like a good advertisement photo.
05/06/2002 08:31:00 PM
This is kind of busy
05/06/2002 07:55:00 PM
Cluttered look doesn't sell.
05/06/2002 07:19:00 PM
i love kinder surprise!! but the picture is cluttered
05/06/2002 01:51:00 PM
Great photo (I am unfamiliar with the product Kinder Surprise, do the objects beheath the surprise come inside?) Photo 10 Advert 9 (probably my fault) Creativity 10
total 10

too cluttered
05/06/2002 12:49:00 PM
Nice colorful shot here.
Little dark.
05/06/2002 12:32:00 PM
I spotted it :)
It's a nice idea to show the variation of toys that are inside the eggs, but I think the egg looks kind of lost in the picture. Also I would have filled the empty spaces in the top-left and top-right.
05/06/2002 08:25:00 AM
Pretty much a jumble to the eye. Hard to sort it all out.
05/06/2002 06:11:00 AM
Way to busy for me.
05/06/2002 05:34:00 AM
Methinks that someone eats way to much chocolate.
05/06/2002 04:14:00 AM
This is a very colorful photo... Is the crystal duck what is for sale?
05/06/2002 02:16:00 AM
you got a krystal duck in one of those?
