Spent maybe the last two weeks working on these custom LED lights for my detolfs housing my Disney, Marvel and DC collection. I also must say trying to limit Marvel AND DC to just one detolf was pretty rough. The lighting under each shelf is in the shape of a U using connectors, each shelf is separated with custom length wires and female/male connector plugs so I can easily pull out individual shelves for cleaning as needed. All four LED light strings connect to one individual plug that is plugged into the room lighting outlet that kicks on with a flip of a wall switch

digging the shelving...very open style...it really allows for the figures to be highlighted

LED strip lighting! It's a paint-safe tape of LED lights that you can cut at specific increments so you can make corners if you need to. It's pretty cheap and you can find it on Amazon

Thanks, that’s a good idea- and they’re not as expensive as I had thought. Amazon has rather a baffling array of them, and I’m not sure where I could plug them in for the main shelves without having an annoying wire - I could probably work something out with the corner though, which is the bit that most needs it.
Any tips for what to avoid or what to look for?

If there's no adhesive tape backing, then go with regular wall tack because that's generally paint safe.

Thank you! That’s what caught my eye about the display in the store!
