Another one in the product line is 'World Stage'. I don't think that the globe is necessarily the best subject matter but perhaps the ball could be plated or painted a mottled silver/chrome and the LEDs modified to be red or filtered ... or not.
There are a bunch of kits available to customize your own: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2/182-2626734-3649444
