Thanks to a family member for this one.. I received a phone call about a lamp on Craigslist. I looked up the ad and I was stunned. The title was "Galaxy Table Lamp". I would have NEVER found it as I search for fiber optic. Anyways, it was a never used, still in the box Fantasia Galaxy lamp. Looks like a saucer and has the spherical heat spray. The base is chrome. The lamp is amazing. Pristine new condition. All for $19 bux! I was stoked.
This is now only the 2nd lamp I've seen with the static spray and this patterned color wheel - the other being the Love Bug. I adore the effect this gives in the dark; I see this effect as projecting the wheel's pattern onto the spherical array of fiber tips. Makes a great night light as the patterns spin and swirl across the sphere.

That would be cool to have overlapping color wheels. From what I have seen so far, I don't think Fantasia ever did that. Single color wheels so far. There are a lot of things that come to mind that would make a great lamp.
Yes, the reflection of the light off the chrome is something I really like. Gives it depth and looks really nice.
