Tina’s Dice Digest August 2020 Edition (\#8) Welcome to no. 8 of my Dice Digest! I should probably call this the September edition, but Let’s start this edition off with new tri-colour glitter dice from Udixi, as well as new duck dice andoversized dice they call“Castle Dice”(25mm d6) . Personally, I’m not super fond of the wizardy font on the tri-colours, but the design as such looks pretty good. Will be interesting to see these in person. let’s just ignore that it’s already mid-September. Time flies! Page 1 of 12 Tina’s Dice Digest August 2020 Edition (\#8) HD surprised us with three lines of sharpedged dice. These will be limited release for now, and have so far only been made available to retailers for pre-order. I’m sure we’ll see in the next few weeks which of the known retailers managed to snag sets of these limited dice. Also new from HD are skull dice in different colours, and a teaser for upcoming colourspray set that will likely be popular, once it hits stores (release date not known at this point) . Page 2 of 12 Tina’s Dice Digest August 2020 Edition (\#8) Haxtec has released new metal dice they call “Real Scene Dice”. They are metal dice with pictures of actual RPG themes on the faces below the numbers. The dice are said to be zinc alloy, and it’s not clear how the images are applied. They are most likely stickers that are adhered to the die faces, so it’s not clear just how good these will look in person, and how durable the glue on the stickers will be. Page 3 of 12 Tina’s Dice Digest August 2020 Edition (\#8) Yusun also has new metal dice. They’ve been doing a lot of metal designs lately, including their striped ones in several colours. Bryce’s Dice is back with a new exclusive design, this time a twist on HD’s Ancient line. These are Ancient-style pink dice with an olive green used look, evoking a “used eraser” feel that gave these their name. Page 4 of 12 Tina’s Dice Digest August 2020 Edition (\#8) Metallic Dice Games now has some of their exclusive Stardust sets available as mini versions. I think they look great. Quick reminder that the D&D 5e Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frost Maiden dice set is being released on Sep 29, 2020. MRSP for this package is $29.99, and it contains • Eleven dice (two d20s, one d12, two d10s, one d8, four d6s, one d4) • Player-friendly foldout map of Icewind Dale and Ten-Towns (10.5"× 15.75") • Durable, felt-lined box that functions as two dice trays • Twenty double-sided cards with descriptions and illustrations of characters and creatures one might encounter in Icewind Dale Please note: It looks like the set will contain two d10s and no percentile die, unless this isan error in the product photos.
