Tropicana announced today that it will discontinue its new product redesign only a month after all of its orange juice containers were revamped. The Times calls the move PepsiCo's "own version of New Coke." We've heard quite a few grumblings around town about how generic-looking the new Tropicana cartons were and apparently some people took their gripes to the company itself. One customer asked Tropicana, “Do any of these package-design people actually shop for orange juice? Because I do, and the new cartons stink.”

Subway ads are always undergoing transformation, but And I Am Not Lying recently spotted a more advanced form of subway ad art. He reports:

Those great big billboard ads you see on the subway are nothing but giant peel-and-stick Coloforms, really. I love the accidental collages you see when people randomly pick and peel those thing like they’re great big scabs, and I just knew it was a matter of time before someone started making art out of them.

That's Darth Vader with the Murakami eyes, and Princess Leia getting the Iron Man treatment. These ads were all spotted at the Lorimer L stop, has anyone seen something similar?
