I have a fantasy dungeon infinity mirror I got off of Think Geek. It is neat for set dressing and wall mounted figure display, but unless you need a huge running hallway or in this case tube, it has limitations. Does it save space? Yes absolutely. Is it neat? Yes. Does it have limited applications because it is a mirror best used with low light in only certain settings? Again, yes.
At its best blending in and setting some nice ambiance.

In this instance, I intentionally used what it looks like in normal light to show off the figures back, but this is the major drawback, especially for small scale action figure photography. You not only have the mirror creating reflections but the clear glass/plastic in front of it creating reflections.

And just the nature of the Stargate, something people walk through. It seems like you'd be better served carving your own gate out of foam and then either using photoshop or smoke and lights, if you prefer a more practical effect to pull it off.
