that blue red one looks kinda like a chewing gum ball sweet...i want it lol

Feel free to note me and we can go from there :)

I didn't realise there were so many variations of that kind of die. I've never played a table top roleplaying game before, but I want one of these now ;3;

I've never played either, but dude there are some epic die out there!

My eyes have been openned! To Amazon !

Actually Ebay is a far better source =P

I've never used it before :O Is it easy to use ?

Ebay is pretty simple, it's just a bidding site that also has an auto-buy action.

No doubt I'll auto-buy something and still get sniped out of the thing I want.

THOSE MTG AREN'T DICE MAN

They are dice, but they aren't d20s. They are spindown dice.

How are these not D20's? I guess I always just thought D20 meant that it was a 20 sized die..?

So in talking to my roomie, most of the one's I have are D20's but the weird set (Dragons of Tarkir) up in the corner are spindowns

Yup. The difference is the actual placement of the numbers on a die. On a spindown, they are in order so that you only have to adjust the die slightly to decrease the number by one, to make it easier to keep track of MtG life totals. For d20s, they numbers are more spread out to make it feel more random upon rolling.

I suppose spindowns are actually a type of d20, but some nerds will bark at you if you refer to them as such, or try to use spindowns to roll a random number. But unless you are doing something competitive, it's just nitpicking. There's still only one of each number, after all.

Spindown (19 is next to 20, 13 is next to 12, etc. A path can be drawn in numerical order all the way around the die).

"Regular d20" (Numbers are more spread out.)

It was explained to me that D20's have numbers opposite so that any two opposite sides equals 21

I actually didn't know that, but that kinda makes sense.

Yep. If you want to know if your dice have a random chance to roll any number. Each side must equal to the total number of sides plus one. D6, the six is opposite of the one. That works with every side. It works with every d4s, d6s, d8s, d10s. Even d100s, as long as the two sides equal to 1 above the max number of sides. It's random.

Wow quiet the assortment. And they should sell well to both magic players and D&D fans. Regardless of what people say about spindowns vs randoms they will sell well regardless. Conventions have a lot of both type of players and players love this type of stuff. I have a friend that collects every different dice set he can get his hand on both D&D as well as Magic and has them all in a big display case. People just love unique things and love the idea of getting something unique to make them stand out from the crowd. I can even imagine they could possibly switch dice out and carry their lucky dice with them like this. And I love how many cool dice there are out there for pieces like these as each piece can be so unique.

You have quiet the array and they should all sell very well. As I have seen things like these but the dice were not usable like yours are as you can get your dice out so it serves nice form and function. Thats so huge. ^_^

How much for the sling?

A sling with a die is $14 for stainless steel, $16 for titanium

can i get the light purple shiny one? :o

The one on the top right? Sure, note me and we can go from there

at the top :o

Oh! The light purple sling? That's one of the titanium ones so it will be $16 plus shipping

That black and clear one at the bottom right is wicked as heck. If i had the 16$ i would send it to ya. ;-;

That particular one is amazing, it's almost like an opal in person

Cool.

Sorry but I'm not selling the dice alone or as a lot

Ah ok lol

nope just the light purple d20 in the right upper corner :) would love the sling to be silver please

Alrighty (though that die is a bit more pink then purple in person if that's ok), a stainless sling would be $14

gonna send a note :3 really digging the light purplish blue one under it aswell :o

I see 5 MTG spin downs in that mix.

I totally saw someone doing this on etsy, very cool.

Are you shipping to Germany? (how much it would cost?)

International shipping is $25

oooooooh <3 and you have MTG spin-downs <3

I just learned the difference yesterday actually XD

lol yeah, they're less "random" if you just roll them, but they're REALLY good if you're trying to keep track of totals because you arent looking arond the die for an hour trying to find the number you're looking for

some of the most beautiful dice out there right now is the Gemini collection from Chessex. I have both a polyhedral dice set and a matching D6 cube from them and i absolutely love them.. plus they have so many color combos its hard not to find something you like. Honestly I would want to order like a few of these slings as gifts for all my pathfinder friends. I'll see who all is interested and message you about that. Here is the main page of the collection : http://www.chessex.com/Dice/Gemini/....._dice_home.htm

I love Chessex! I have a HUGE collection of dice, by Chessex!
