If nested blocks aren't possible, how do I do this?

Store Design

I want to create a section for the home page of a site I’m working on where you can choose multiple images that will be presented as a slideshow. When you click on the image, it will open a modal that has links to related products. The images will be of models wearing various items from the store and the products that appear in the modal will be the items that they’re wearing.

I thought I could create a custom section and have a block for each image but now I’ve found that you can’t have nested blocks so it seems I can’t select more than one product per block.

Is there another way to do what I’m trying to do?

I guess I can add multiple different product chooser fields to my block, but the UI of being able to have a repeater would be better.
