Generation prompt
Create a two-figure toy card using both reference images: the first reference is the figure on the left, the second reference is the figure on the right, both translated into the same collectible toy style with faithful simplified facial likeness, matte vinyl skin, painted eyes and visible shoulder ball joints. The two figures stand side by side on a printed card that has a glossy sticker sheet at the bottom holding four small accessories: two interchangeable hands, one small prop each. Packaging: printed card with a soft gradient background, rounded corners, a hang hole at the top, a transparent blister over both figures, a soft specular sweep along the plastic. Card art: two bold diagonal shapes in complementary colours, simple graphic shapes only, with no words, numbers or other text. Styling: matching outfits in complementary colours with one contrasting accessory each, so the pair reads as a set. Lighting: even product lighting from two soft boxes with a slight top-left key, light grey seamless background, soft shadows under the card. Photographic product shot, playful and clean, no illustration style, no HDR.

What it is used for

  • Follow the action-figure trend on social media, since celebrities, athletes, friends and pets all work as subjects.
  • As a gift: turn the other person into a packaged action figure.
  • Product concept images for small businesses selling toys or accessories.
  • Fan and band merchandise: an individual carded figure for each member.

Blister Pack Hero Figure

The standard setup: front-facing packaging with the figure clearly visible.

Reference photos: One front-facing half-body photo with even lighting. A half-body shot preserves the facial features more reliably than a full-body shot.

Turn the person in the reference image into a collectible action figure sealed inside a blister pack, photographed as a toy product shot. Keep the person's facial likeness recognisable while translating it into toy form: simplified but faithful features, painted-on eyes without sclera texture, smooth matte vinyl skin with a slight sheen, a visible ball joint at each shoulder and elbow, a thin mould seam along one arm, and a slightly oversized head in the style of a six-inch figure. The figure wears an outfit derived from the reference photo, simplified into toy-friendly shapes with no fabric texture. Inside the pack: the figure stands upright on a clear display stand, with a small accessory tray beside it holding two interchangeable hands and one small plastic prop. Packaging: a printed card back behind the figure, a transparent vacuum-formed blister in front of it with rounded corners, a soft specular highlight along the top edge and one faint scuff mark, plus a small peg hole at the top. Card art: a flat colour field with two large diagonal shapes, a short series name of two words in a bold condensed face at the top, and a single number printed in one corner; no other text anywhere on the card or the plastic. Lighting: bright even product studio light from two soft boxes, one soft shadow under the pack, a light grey seamless background. Photographic realism, no illustration style, no HDR.
Negative prompt
extra text, gibberish lettering, brand logos, glass-like plastic, cloth fabric texture, two figures in one pack, HDR, distorted face

Reference only — the image models available here do not take a separate negative prompt, so this list is guidance for editing the prompt above.

Why this works: Main variant. Keep the three sentences covering the joints, the mould seam line and the eyes without sclera texture; if the figure's facial features get simplified too far, add 'keep the facial proportions of the reference image'.

Front And Back Packaging Set

For a set showing the front and the back of the pack, good for a photo grid or a product page.

Reference photos: One half-body portrait; this set produces two images, the front of the pack and the back of the pack, from the same face, so generate them separately and combine them afterward.

Make a toy packaging photo of a single action figure based on the person in the reference image, showing the pack from behind. Keep the face recognisable on the small printed photo area while the figure itself is only visible as a silhouette through frosted plastic. Details: the card back shows a printed photo of the same person in a small framed panel on the upper right, three short painted playing-card style panels with abstract icons instead of text, a barcode block in the lower right corner, a warning symbol triangle in the lower left, and a hang hole centered at the top. The figure inside is seen from behind through the frosted blister, so the back of the toy hair and the shoulders are visible with the ball joints at the shoulders catching a rim highlight. Card stock: printed board with a visible fibre texture, slightly bowed at the edges, one corner bent. Lighting: two soft boxes, a slight gradient on the white background, one soft contact shadow under the pack, the plastic edge glowing where it curves. Studio product photography, 1:1 framing with the pack filling the centre and generous margins. No readable text other than the barcode block, no brand names, no illustration style.
Negative prompt
readable invented words, brand names, logos, glossy glass plastic, extra figures, HDR, cluttered background, distorted barcode

Reference only — the image models available here do not take a separate negative prompt, so this list is guidance for editing the prompt above.

Why this works: The back-of-pack variant deliberately steers around the packaging-text trap: a photo panel, graphic panels and a barcode replace the text.

Reference photos: Two portraits, one of person A and one of person B. The prompt assigns the roles by first and second image, so do not upload them in the wrong order.

Create a two-figure toy card using both reference images: the first reference is the figure on the left, the second reference is the figure on the right, both translated into the same collectible toy style with faithful simplified facial likeness, matte vinyl skin, painted eyes and visible shoulder ball joints. The two figures stand side by side on a printed card that has a glossy sticker sheet at the bottom holding four small accessories: two interchangeable hands, one small prop each. Packaging: printed card with a soft gradient background, rounded corners, a hang hole at the top, a transparent blister over both figures, a soft specular sweep along the plastic. Card art: two bold diagonal shapes in complementary colours, one short two-word series name in the top left in a heavy rounded face, one number in the bottom right; no other text. Styling: matching outfits in complementary colours with one contrasting accessory each, so the pair reads as a set. Lighting: even product lighting from two soft boxes with a slight top-left key, light grey seamless background, soft shadows under the card. Photographic product shot, playful and clean, no illustration style, no HDR.
Negative prompt
three or more figures, mismatched toy styles, gibberish text, brand logos, glassy plastic, HDR, distorted faces, extra hands

Reference only — the image models available here do not take a separate negative prompt, so this list is guidance for editing the prompt above.

Why this works: Two-figure variant. The point is that both figures share the same toy style: reuse one single passage for the style description and change only the colors and the accessories.

Nano Banana 2 Litetext → image1:1 · 1K

A product photograph of a generic six-inch collectible action figure sealed inside a blister pack on a printed card. The figure is an adult in a simplified grey jumpsuit with matte vinyl skin, painted eyes without sclera texture, visible ball joints at the shoulders and elbows, a thin mould seam along one arm and a slightly oversized head. The figure stands on a small clear display stand with a tray beside it holding two interchangeable hands and one small plastic prop. Packaging: printed card back, transparent vacuum-formed blister with rounded corners, a soft specular highlight along its top edge, one faint scuff mark, a peg hole at the top, a printed flat colour field with two large diagonal shapes, a single two-word series name in a bold condensed face and one small number in a corner with no other text. Lighting: two soft boxes, one soft contact shadow, light grey seamless background. Clean product photography, photographic realism, no illustration style, no brand names, no HDR.

Why this works: Text-only sample variant, the cheapest option. It is a fallback for the page and does not represent a real user result.

Use this prompt

If the result is wrong, change this first

The text on the packaging collapses into gibberish.

Cut the amount of text to the minimum: keep only one short series name of two words or fewer and one number, and require 'no other text' for everything else; the more text you ask for, the more it breaks down.

The figure still looks like a real person and has not been turned into a toy.

Emphasize the physical features of the toy itself: 'visible ball joints at the shoulders and elbows', 'mould seam line along the arm', 'painted-on eyes with no sclera texture', 'matte vinyl surface with a slight sheen'.

Two different figures appear inside the same card.

State explicitly 'a single figure inside the pack', and delete any wording about multiple angles.

The clear blister looks like glass or has no thickness.

Write 'vacuum-formed plastic with rounded corners, a soft specular highlight along the top edge and a faint scuff mark'.

Accessories are drawn as strange small objects.

Name the accessories with generic toy parts: 'interchangeable hands', 'a small plastic accessory', 'a display stand'; do not name specific weapons or branded props.

Notes

  • The two real difficulties in this template are the packaging text and the figure's joints. Keep the text as short as possible, and always spell out the joints: with no joints the result is just a plastic doll, not an action figure.
  • For the reference image, use a front-facing half-body shot; a full-body photo tends to be compressed into cartoon proportions.
