I'll happily accept Gamescience dice, for example, provided they're old school -- no D10s.James Maliszewskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00341941102398271464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487871339000666216.post-12089119654487720452008-09-09T17:39:00.000-04:002008-09-09T17:39:00.000-04:00Those early dice were pure crap.That might be true...<I>Those early dice were pure crap.</I><BR/><BR/>That might be true of those soft plastic early dice, but is certainly not true of the Gamescience dice.

I've seen a few shatter on contact with table surfaces after long use. Very dramatic, and good for a few laughs.<BR/><BR/>I'm kind of surprised you'd want them. Dice crafting is one of the few areas where undeniable progress has been made over the past several decades. Those early dice were pure crap. The new stuff (Q-Workshop and Chessex are my personal favorites) is both very durable and comes in nifty colors/designs..metamorphosissigmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18163514061779555557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487871339000666216.post-73154355495544380482008-09-09T16:48:00.000-04:002008-09-09T16:48:00.000-04:00Okay, I've just been to their website and I don't ...Okay, I've just been to their website and I don't know how to look these dice up -- I don't know who made them.<BR/><BR/>Check out this auction on ebay: No. 180286922141. This gives you most of a set; you're only missing the red d6.<BR/><BR/>If all else fails, I have 5 sets, one of which it still in the plastic bag; I'm sure I could part with it without too great a sense of personal loss.
