A lot of people have mentioned this to me over the last few years, and I really want to get something together that'll make people happy, and give their awesome props a great home.
I'm hoping to offer these as kits, a one-stop shop to grab everything you'd need to build a light up display stand. It'll include custom routed pieces of wood (like my Han in Carbonite box kit) LED strip tape that'll glow at the push of a button, and a clear backing to diffuse the light, probably frosted acrylic or something similar.
Here's my rough draft prototype, first look:
More pics and discussion in the Build Thread
These will light up!
What I'm offering now for preorders is this round version. There'll be more details, and likely a third inner row of circles to better mimic the freezing chamber. I'll update with more finished photos shortly.
You can follow along on the building and development of one of these stands over here at the build thread:

Okay. I've figured out my pricing and would love to get started producing these, as long as we get enough orders together.
It'll be an easy-to-assemble kit containing:
two CNC cut 1/2" thick mdf top panels cut with chamber floor pattern
two CNC cut 1/2" thick mdf blank bottom panels
four laser cut 1/8" thick hardboard panels cut with stair step pattern
a generous 30 foot length of remote controllable color changing led strip tape
ac adapter for leds
white opaque light diffuser film to back openings
The top panels will have pre-drilled holes on theback rectangular section that line up with spots on the bottom of the HiC to allow for easy mounting. Using these mounting holes, it'll be able to support a free-standing HiC if you plan on bringing it to a convention.
USA shipping from baltimore in a 48"x24"x4" box.
The US price is $265 including shipping.
For orders outside of the country, I'll have to figure out the shipping, but just like the HiC box kits, I can have these made in the EU, Canada, and Australia so it might not end up being that bad. likely we'll make the CNC parts near you, and then ship the other parts from baltimore.
I'm opening this up to a batch of ten orders, and if this half-fills we'll start production on that batch, and start a new one if needed. I'd like to get started producing, but will be away for three weeks, Aug 25-Sept 16ish. I don't think I'll be able to get these shipped before then, so we're looking at a late September delivery.
