Dice<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Both these new colours are a clear design with Nebula-style wisps and the Borealis-typical additional colour-shifting glitter. Light Smoke appears to have black wisps and Icicle white ones. The blue ink for the Icicle line gives them a distinct wintery feeling. Perhaps somewhat surprisingly, both of these lines now also have the luminary particles inside that glow in the dark. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The street date <\/strong>(= date when you can buy them)<strong> is said to be Nov 20, 2020.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-css-opacity has-background is-style-wide\" style=\"background-color:#334569;color:#334569\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Chessex_Borealis_Revamp\"><\/span>Chessex Borealis Revamp<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Along with the announcements of the two new colours, Chessex dropped a pretty big bomb by disclosing that they&#8217;d be giving their complete Borealis line an overhaul. From late November onwards, all available Borealis dice will contain luminary particles, while the general design of the Borealis dice (material colour and glitter) stays the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The luminary Borealis will replace the currently available ones, so that the sets without the luminary particles will be phased out and go out of print when all remaining stock has been sold. Chessex recently ran more production batches of the regular &#8220;new glitter&#8221; Borealis before they started producing the luminary ones, so that the non-luminary sets might still be available for certain amount of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The luminary Borealis will be available in stores from Nov 20, 2020 onwards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\"

But did you know that there are also variations in the newer German Chessex moulds they use for their acrylic dice?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Granted, these variations are very minor, and only recognizable to the trained eye, but they are there all the same. Take a look on the right. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most notably, the differences can be seen in the curve of the&nbsp;2, where the tip of the 2 sits lower in some moulds, and higher in others. There\u2019s also one specific mould where the 2 and 0 in the 20 are closer together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When asking Chessex about their moulds, they confirmed that they have several different moulds that are all still in use. There are these differences between the moulds as pointed out above. Some are more notable because the early moulds were handmade, whereas the newer ones are machine-made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chessex also said there is no predetermined association of certain moulds with certain designs or time of production. All available moulds are still being used to date, sometimes for the same lines, sometimes for different ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This means the same Chessex line can be produced at the same time, using different machines that have these very minor mould differences. It can also happen that different machines (i.e. different moulds) are used at different times for the same line. This is not documented or tracked by Chessex, as it is inconsequential to the overall characteristics, quality or value of the dice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the most recent Chessex Lab Dice use the three different moulds. Lustrous Amethyst has been produced in the oldest d20 mould, Festive Dahlia has been seen to use the intermediate age mould and lines like Festive Flare or Nebula Spring use the latest mould.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, there isn&#8217;t any hard evidence to attribute these different moulds to certain years when they were starting to be used, but based on information from fellow collectors, it appears that the mould with the shorter curve on the 2 didn&#8217;t appear before 2012, and the one with the 2 and 0 closer together is the newest one that had its debut around late 2018 or early 2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the left you can see four different dice from the same year (2019) with three different d20 mould designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On moulds other than the d20, fellow collector John A. shared the following information with me:<br><em>Similar variations occur on the other shapes as well. I don\u2019t think all the molds from the second series started production at the same time; the d4 I believe was already in use by 2009 while the d% and d8 didn\u2019t seem to appear until 2014-15.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While this information doesn&#8217;t really help as a reliable method to tell the age of Chessex dice or as a tangible indication of old glitter vs. new glitter, it can help in determining if certain dice are newer than others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One somewhat useful conclusion that can be drawn is that any Borealis dice with the mould from 2018\/19 (with the 2 and 0 closer together) have to be new glitter versions, as this mould wasn&#8217;t yet in use when the old glitter dice were made (with the exception of Borealis Maple Green).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, claims such as saying that Borealis old glitter dice with the 2012 mould are categorically sub-par and faulty are a bit far-fetched. Production variations like, for instance, different levels of clarity were and are entirely unintented.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Time for no. 10 of my Dice Digest &#8212; this time on an all new blogging platform that I will be using for these from now on.
