# Levitating Sci-Fi Shelves 'Dave’s Geeky Ideas' Released a Conceptual X-Men Shelf That "Floats" By Megan Facciuolo | Published 2014-06-11 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/daves-geeky-ideas References: [technabob](http://technabob.com/blog/2014/06/09/this-x-men-blu-ray-collection-concept/) & [davesgeekyideas](http://davesgeekyideas.com/2014/06/04/x-men-collection-blu-ray-stand/) Dave Delisle of Dave's Geeky Ideas recently came up with the idea for an awesome piece of X-Men merchandise. The shelf is in homage to Magneto's powers. The villainous Magneto can use his magnetic powers to levitate things, and he is doing just that with the [book shelf](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/puzzle-shelf) and its contents. The shelf is perfect to hold any [Blu-Ray discs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/penguin-x-moebe-book-stand), but it is best suited with the entire X-Men film franchise. It is a perfect way to display your inner geek and it will truly will be *the last stand* you'll ever need to display your X-Men movies on. The stand's clear plastic and glass would give the illusion its Blu-Rays are being levitated by Magneto, who also appears to be floating. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 24% | Activity: 43% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Home](https://www.trendhunter.com/home) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Levitation-inspired Merchandise:** Opportunity to create more merchandise that incorporates levitation into its design, possibly using magnets or other technology. - **Innovative Display Shelves:** Opportunity to create more creative and visually appealing display shelves that are not only functional but also serve as decorative pieces. - **Geek-focused Home Decor:** Opportunity to tap into the market of geek and pop culture enthusiasts for unique and quirky home decor items. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Home Decor:** Innovative and geeky home decor items can be an untapped market opportunity for companies and entrepreneurs. - **Entertainment Merchandise:** Licensing deals with popular franchises can lead to the creation of more unique and innovative merchandise items. - **Furniture Design:** Opportunity to incorporate creative designs and technology into everyday furniture items to create unique and visually appealing pieces. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Galactic-Themed Pen Holders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ufo-desk-pen.md) - [Dynamic Storage-Display Shelves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shelf-life.md) - [Mobile Illuminating Shelves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/for-a-fleeting-moment.md) - [Abstract Jigsaw-Like Shelving](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spectator-shelf.md) - [Floating Decorative Desk Setups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/levitating-cybertruck.md) - [Customizable Style-Conscious Shelving](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ledoux-modular-shelf-system.md) - [Room-Dividing Bookshelf Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frquence-shelf.md) - [Clock-Accented Shelf Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/omega-shelf.md) - [Next-Generation TV Models](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oled-shelf-concept.md)
