DoraTaco Periodic Table d6

This also isn’t necessarily an oddball die. It’s a custom d6 that Japanese retailer DoraTaco offered as Periodic Table die. The science nerd that I am, I had to have this one.

Gio Lasar’s handpainted Halloween d6

This isn’t so much an oddity as more of a really special, unique die. Back in 2019 at the Spiel fair, some of the European collectors in attendance met up for a dice collector dinner, which is also where I met some of these lovely people for the first time in person.

The “Real d10s”

Some of you may have come across d10s that have an actual 10 instead of the usual 0, and today I wanna show off the two specimens I own. I think they’re most abundant in this particular D&G mould, but I also know Chessex has or had moulds in the Danish factory that have a 10 instead of 0 (this was used for the Chessex Speckled Scorched d10 set, for instance).

The Danish Lottery Dice

Most long time collectors will have probably heard of or come across these in their day: The fabled Danish lottery d34.

Weible Joker

These are kinda funky and very unusual. The company who is offering these is called Weible, and they are actually still available for purchase today, though not in the original triangular packaging they first came in many years ago.

The King Cards dice most people don’t know about

When people say King Cards, most collectors think of King Cards Pearl or King Cards Rainbow, which are fairly well known to collectors. However, King Cards also released other things that you don’t see all that often. Here are a few examples:

Dice & Games Randoms

Chessex has the PoD randoms, but I firmly believe that D&G also had weird random dice that they tried out or never made as full sets and then maybe put in the Crystal Caste Jingle Bones bags or distributed to the public in some other fashion.

D&G Olympic

There’s these three sets of dice I’m lucky enough to have in my collection that were made by D&G in gold, silver and bronze respectively. I’ve seen them called King Cards Pearl in the dice groups, but to my knowledge they were never part of the Pearl line associated with and sold by King Cards. They certainly don’t appear in any of the King Cards catalogues I have.

Random Rarities

Sometimes there’s just really random dice that one could consider rarities and that a lot of collectors never even knew existed. I would count most of these into that category. Not all of them fall into that category of ‘rare and sought after’, in fact a lot of them are probably ‘rare and actually fairly uninteresting’. 🙂
