30 Replica Products, Magazine Covers and Designs

— March 1, 2009 — Pop Culture
When cycling through the replica articles in this cluster, you might get the familiar feeling that you’ve seen these innovations before. You have. These recycled magazine covers, blatant knock-off products and copycat designs are all proof that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery--or that we just don’t care about copyright law until we get caught.

My favorite replica articles are those that cover recycled magazine covers. As Trend Hunter’s own Ayman Helweh pointed out, a magazine’s cover is one of its most defining attributes. Selecting an image that is not new or original only draws suspicion of and attention towards the magazine’s creativity and resources.

Check out some other replica products, magazine covers and designs below.
