They look nice. They look easy enough to make. All you need are some led's and an ac adapter. Is there a close-up shot of how they run/hide the wires?

Both cases and shipping cost £290.00.
These cases are 4mm Acrylic (thicker available if required) lit via an LED in each rear corner, once lit they frame the case lighting up the edge in a choice of colours, i opted for white, but kinda wish i had gone for green with Alien 
Unfortunately they are not quite bright enough on these size cases to light the alien and pred properly, but on smaller cases/PF size i think they would do a nice job without dazzling the statue. I am told they do sell angled strip lights which can be added to the cases for lighting contents, so i will be looking into these.
They also do a range of options for bases, but i opted to do my own, i kind of cheated but am more than happy with the results.....i went to my local DIY store and purchased two High Black Gloss kitchen unit doors closest to the sizes i needed, ie pred stayed complete at 720x600 whereas with alien i bought the same size, but cut it down to 600x600 with the cut edge touched up and at the back out of view, plenty strong enough even to support pred!! i gave the sizes to Acrylic Vision stating they were the inside measurements for the case, on arrival they fitted exactly round the bases!
I have spoken to them about shipping overseas which is fine, prices will be given with quotes.

Yeah these are some nice cases, but by them not really lighten up the whole case almost makes them pointless.
