That background is from a series of diorama sets called Ubiquitous, by a company called Nova. It's basically a box of parts and panels that you can put together in almost any configuration you want, so it's very customizable. There's two versions of it, with and without the LEDs. I have the LED version as you can see in the photos, and I will say that as cool as it looks when put together, it's kind of a huge pain in the ass to build. I'd definitely recommend it for anyone wanting a cool background for photos, just with the disclaimer that the process of actually building it is not very pleasant.

And thank you for the kind words about the lighting! That's something I've worked hard on improving at over the years, with a lot of experimentation and practice. I use Lume Cubes for the main lighting, which I think are perfect for toy photography, I love them. For colored lighting I just use some relatively cheap little color-changing lights intended for closet lighting that I found at a hardware store, but they work great for this.
