[0011] According to this invention, by illuminating the pattern formed on the pattern plate from below while the pattern plate is placed on the display stand body, a high visual effect can be obtained that is integrated with the display object (figure, stuffed animal, mascot, or other three-dimensional decoration). Furthermore, by adopting a product specification that includes pattern plates with different designs, it becomes possible to provide display stands with a wide variety of presentation options. Furthermore, by making the light-emitting means and sound-reproducing means controllable for starting and stopping, it is possible to achieve a highly immersive experience that combines visual and auditory effects, thereby improving user satisfaction.

[0012] The pattern plate has a transparent or translucent image, such as an animation, printed on the base material, and is fixed to the top surface of the base by adhesive or screws or other fastening means. A light-emitting LED is positioned on the bottom surface inside the base, and the light from the LED is uniformly irradiated onto the pattern plate via a light-diffusing member. The base has a built-in speaker that can play music or sound effects related to the displayed object (figure, stuffed animal, mascot, or other three-dimensional decoration). The operating means consists of a push button, and the operation of at least one or both of the light-emitting means and the sound-playing means is controlled in response to the operation of the push button.
