Made a couple Tesseracts over the weekend with my grandson. One is his and the other goes in my comic room. Pretty simple to make. Got all the supplies at a Michael’s (local craft chain) by us. Photo cube, spray paint (for frosting the inside of cube), turquoise LED lights with remote and cotton for the inside. Not a bad result for how cheap to put together.

They can stay lit or pulse but I couldn’t upload a video from my iPhone.

I have 5 grandkids. Four are boys and we have had science experiment days in the past when they were younger. I like to try to mix it up a bit with them, but as they get older I have to keep upping my game. We already had Photoshop class too!

I might have to try this. Thanks for sharing.

How do you attach the wall mounts to the wall?  I see there's a screw hole at the top of the one on the left, but is that how you've done it?

I just put up the first one. Really easy. Just slide the mount on and hang it on a nail.
 

When they get back from CGC, X-men 1 (autographed by Lee and Williams) and X-men 5 will go on each side of 4.

@HighVoltage@Waylanderhere's what I have handy in my album, I probably should have posted this one instead (taken before I added the racks, but a clearer pic)

Our oldest swiped that chair for his gaming area, which forced me to move in the racks.

The ASM 100 and Star Wars on the back wall are recreations I did some years ago. The DETOLF is not something I photographed entirely it looks like, but you can get a bit of a closer look with these

A Batman figural prototype run I built together with my youngest - they all vary from different stages of prototyping, from clay, waxes, hardcopy's, molds, and first shots - all dating from 1966 to around the early 2000's. There are quite a few additions not shown here but this can be a tough display to photograph due to glare so I went with the one that looked best from my awful attempts at photographing it.

This is the first version of the store bin with header I got from @Rip for the series one diecast line, I had the full run but decided to focus instead on the Canadian bilingual, and am looking for the X-Wing and regular TIE Fighter carded to finish the run. The art on the wall are Star Wars Sunday pages which can be seen here

You had me after the first two pictures!

All right. The room is finished! I’ve posted some pics already so I apologize for a few repeats but there is new stuff as well. A lifetime of collectibles that finally have a place of their own.
