The thing with the legs is a toy tardigrade.

Hello, the bottom left hand ones are called trainers. You might wear them doing sport, or if you wanted comfortable footwear for walking / day to day wear.

HTH.

I believe there is a t shirt with a witty slogan, in one image.
A pair of trainers, bottom left and cat water fountain in bottom right corner.

What’s the blue thing? And what is the woman doing top left???

All look like the typical things people buy to shorten their life spans. Or life spans of their pets and children.
It's a conscious thing as well - not like there's a shortage of information as to what health-harming chemicals that crap leeches.

I'm pretty sure I've seen Martin from Homes Under the Hammer wearing items nr 2 and nr 4.

I think some of those images have been cunningly selected to make you go ‘wtf’ and click out of curiosity, then once you’re on the site you’ll see other stuff you actually want to buy and they’ve got you hooked.

There's a waterbear on there. I know that from the Octonauts years.

The thing in the top right is a bum bag with a photo of a belly printed on it. Because that is funny. Apparently.

It’s the climate crisis meets capitalism meets internet.

The fact that you're asking this question is the reason they put those items in the adverts. They know the weirdest-looking stuff will attract the most attention and people will click through to find out what on earth it is. Then when they click through they see all the normal stuff and get sucked into buying a set of 42 plastic storage containers for 89p or whatever.

I have one of those bike chain cleaners, they are amazing but a real pain to clean afterwards.
