For the next two weeks, I will make daily posts where I\u2019ll spotlight unusual or lesser known dice that I have in my collection that I hope are interesting for everyone to see and learn about. Each day I\u2019ll cover a different theme, I hope you enjoy this series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This also isn\u2019t necessarily an oddball die. It\u2019s a custom d6 that Japanese retailer DoraTaco offered as Periodic Table die<\/a>. The science nerd that I am, I had to have this one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s another variation of this design listed (but sold out) in the DoraTaco store<\/a>. They look slightly different and are called Elemental dice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Polyset versions of these are now also in existence: DoraTaco ran a Kickstarter for a full polyset of them, made by Q-Workshop. The polysets will look slightly more bland in that they are just white dice with black engraving without the grey elements of the original d6 where I believe the writing was printed on rather than engraved. These can be pre-ordered via the Kickstarter page<\/a> or bought on the DoraTaco website<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
