Too Cool High Low

Vague enough title post for you?  It'll make since to you soon, well, sorta, I promise.

A little over a week ago I was complaining posted about the dodecahedron terrarium and how I was not cool enough for it. . . but I'm totally cool enough for the Z Gallerie version! Heck yeah, I am -

I've been pretty upfront over the years that I am totally okay with "knock-offs", and at a fourth of the cost of the hand crafted original (and slightly larger so my giant hand will fit with no problem), this is no exception.
