Any recommendations here for these two on what would make some fun backgrounds? I was thinking maybe just a big red curtain for the FO and maybe more SpaceWalls for the Empire but I'm kind of drawing a blank and don't want to just do the "Rebellion" shelf over and over... Wife is gone for a few days next week so I'll get a chance to paint their floors black at least...

First Order definitely needs snow. A bit of a cotton roll, like at Christmas when people set up a nativity. Then a large red banner split into thirds for the backdrop. Draw, print, or use a vinyl sticker for the FO logo.

Imperial section needs the black floor. To change it up I'd suggest a "space" theme. Try to incorporate a star view for the backdrop. Maybe even print out some quality ships kind of small so they appear in the distance. Star Destroyers come to mind.

I am currently setting up three Detolfs in a similar manner. We are displaying Marvel Universe figures. Each shelf section a mini diorama instead of just a bunch of figures in a row. It is rewarding, fun and bit frustrating. Here are a couple pics for reference. They are early days and I am adding floors and perhaps side pieces. Each one with playset bits though.

Good luck!!! In my opinion, don't rule out a future sandy desert shelf and a green woodsy foliage shelf just to break it up and make every thing really pop and stand out.
