"That's no moon - that's an IKEA PS 2014 pendant lamp!"

You can see the painted one at my blog

It's pretty damned big, I play with it every time I go to Ikea. My wife is now used to the statement of 'prepare attack formation' or similar.
So many projects..... so little time.......

I have one of these in my kitchen (the orange one), and I always refer to it as my personal deathstar (usually triggering a silly grin from me :D and some eye rolling from my wife... ::) )

It's pretty cool, and the opening and closing of the surface regulates light even better than the dimmer we also have installed.
Miniatures you say? Well I too, like to live dangerously...

Yeah, if we had one in our house, I'd say "That's no moon... it's a space station" so often that my wife would kill me. She'd probably get off as a justifiable homicide.  lol
