Cue the George O'Hanlon voice: "Jane, don't stop this crazy thing!"

I doubt Jane would have let George keep this model around the house.

She'll probably run off with Uniblab.

Nah, she's got a boyfriend in Max.

I can't tell you how much I enjoy your strange and challenging commissions!

They you may be interested to know I now not only have 39 (not 30) of my "challenge dice" but two auxiliary sets of nine each: Scooby Doo and Hello Kitty.

THIS SOUNDS AWESOME!

The manufacturer, Pressman Toy, also has a 20-die "story telling" set (and 9-die smaller set) I'd like to find, but they were announced last summer and don't look to be available anywhere yet.

I also need a larger bag for everything. (Imagine drawing from 59 dice - plus two optional 9-die sets. Imagine the nightmare of trying to draw a $600 challenge!)

That could be a very very interesting undertaking!

Believe me, I've been tempted to approach some of the high-priced artists at comic cons to pull that.

I don't consider myself high price, but I think that could be fun!

Heh. I'm talking about the 'big name' people a comic book cons who charge three figures and only do take-home commissions.

"Twenty elements? I'll have to charge more for that."

"And that will increase the number of elements. Shall we make it thirty for $300?"

"Um..."

...now my name feels so small...

Note the quotes. I'm talking about the kind of people who have been paid professionally at least once but use that as an excuse to soak anyone seeking commissions. I've paid professional rates for high quality stuff a few times, but this kind of self-promoted twit charges the same prices for less quality. Sadly, too many buyers assume higher prices means more desirable product.

Oh I totally get that.
