I suspect a big problem for talented vendors is coming up with product ideas. I stop at several 3D websites in my daily surfing, and look at the new offerings for use in Carrara (meaning Carrara and Poser format). I typically find nothing much that's really "new", just more sexy (supposedly) female clothes, weapons, cars, etc. Some are well done, but I already have a number of each, so I just turn the page. But there are some really creative offerings by some vendors, e.g. London224 here at Renderosity. I have a half dozen of his products, like the Da Vinci Glider which inspired this:

This one will probably inspire me to do an animation:

Another example is Dante78, whose medieval offerings have already inspired an animation (the medieval part starts @ ~0:57):

I don't think the images for his products do them justice, they look kind of dull brown, but they really have some nice textures. Also, I think he has made progress in providing good value and better functionality (interiors, opening doors and windows, etc.).
Anybody found any other creative vendors?

So true! The no-warrior-would-ever-wear-this women's warrior clothes have gotten way old ;p
There are some good props from ironman13 and poisen.

Indeed. Reminds me of the long ago acronym for many posted renders, I think from the Bryce/Poser folks: NVIATWAS. Nude Vicky In A Temple With A Sword.

Yes, very good examples. I have ten of Ironman's products plus more on my Wish List, like this one which seems like a great value:

I spent many years at a competitive university getting a Master's in Engineering, so the "test dream" is a recurring event. Some kind of horror movie is in that prop ...
I have several of Poisen's products and a couple more on the Wish List, again horror movie in those.
Good examples of creative vendors, I agree.
