A new digital trend is taking over social media, and it is called Nano Banana. Instagram, TikTok, and X are now full of these quirky creations. Unlike traditional collectibles, Nano Banana figures are not real toys but AI-generated 3D models.
The figurines are made using Google’s Gemini 2.5 Flash Image tool. This tool can turn any ordinary photo into a hyper-realistic miniature figure within seconds. The result looks like a toy placed in packaging, ready for display. The Nano Banana trend combines digital art and toy photography without requiring any special skills.
Creating a Nano Banana is simple. Users just upload a clear photo to the Gemini app or website, paste a ready-made prompt, and run it. In moments, the photo is transformed into a toy-like model, complete with shadows, textures, and even packaging. Many people are also adding personalized text to the base, making them ideal for fun gifts or avatars.
The Nano Banana craze has also inspired creativity. Users are designing figurines dressed in cultural outfits or customizing them with brand logos. This has turned the trend into more than just entertainment—it is also being used for marketing and personal branding.
The popularity of Nano Banana echoes past viral trends, like Studio Ghibli-inspired portraits. However, these figurines feel more tangible, as if they could be displayed on a real shelf. For now, they remain digital-only, but their lifelike appearance gives users the same excitement as opening a new collectible.
As the craze spreads worldwide, Nano Banana has quickly become one of the most unique and playful social media trends of the year.
