Judging from a search on the AFA site, no.

That is amazing... but the plastic prison is wrong too.
I'm 100% with Bandonov and company. I don't find that AFA plastic cases are that great looking anyway on top of that.

How would you feed her?
Now being serious, this cases are good for your collection that is near and dear to you so you can protect them, but to do everything to get an extra buck when you sell them... wrong

I realize it's a joke, but it doesn't sit well with me.
I removed your link. Sorry.

No need to be sorry. It didn't sit well with a lot of people; caused quite an uproar at MIT, where the satirical site was started.
A couple kids showed me, quite distraught, and I had to debunk it for them.
As a dark satire, it didn't seem far removed from the 'put my girlfriend in an acrylic case'...'those cases are tight'...comments that came earlier in this thread. A natural downward spiral... Draw your line where you like.
No intent to offend.
