After some research for turnarounds that weren't as obvious to me as the ones you see in shops, I came across these character turnarounds for TOY STORY 3. I presume these were used to promote the film as some sort of advertising/marketing strategy but just in general I think they are great to look at. Toy Story 3 in itself is such a vibrantly colourful film, that to see these characters up against a black background, is a great contrast, and the viewer can observe the character without having any other distractions from anything else.
I also love the irony of this turnaround that portrays the character as happy and welcoming when in actuality according to the films narrative, this character is the villain of the film.
My personal favourite from them is their turnaround of Ken, who obviously still has his fake smile plastered on his face. Since the film itself focuses on toys moving and talking to each other, I half expected the characters to move at any second, however I still thought it was interesting to look at.
What I found about these turnarounds is that they move from their feet, as if that it their pivotal point. That is the most realistic pivotal point since that is what humans and animals move from anyway, but it still makes the turnaround practically flawless. If I were to do a turnaround of a toy doll or of anything similar, then I would definitely be looking at these for reference.
