I know that wicked cool toys is making one, but after looking at the pics it doesnt look in scale to me, the tops of the ring posts are only like 2.5/3 inches from the top of the cage. Today i decide to make my own, i was originally gonna try to make one out of a pets cage but that was too expensive of a route that wouldnt look that good in the long run. I went to Home depot and found some commercial ceiling light covers and went to Work    |

That looks very cool, and you could definitely have a lot of fun with it.
The only thing is, I would never use metal with my figures because:
1. It's heavy as f***
2. It'll scrape paint off like a motherf***er
But seems perfect for posing. Just don't slam the figures into it!

That's awesome! I had made a cage out of wire that looked just like that but ended up being to dangerous for me to use lol. If possible I would like to kinda copy your idea lol.

Thanks for all the positive comments guys! Ive been a long time wfigs lurker back to the late bca/ttl era and ive seen a lot of great work on here. Just a lil tip make sure when youre the excess plastic, take your time looking at all those metallic squares for 2 hours can play tricks on your eyes lol and maybe by two sheets just in case. I messed up at one point so the second came in handy
