The existential angst of having to choose only 3 sets of dice

[olivermoss]

The dice case/tray combo I am using for D&D holds 3 sets of dice. So, I must needs choose:



Close up of just the d12s to see details:



Notes:

* The red dice look waaay better in person, they grab and play with the light in amazing ways.

* The black + rainbow dice are steel anodized to be rainbow with black enamel. Don't ask me how often I think 'Eddie Munson would go nuts for these', I can't count that high. Also, the sound they make hitting the dice tray is so satisfying.

* The silver sparkles in the purple / silver / blue dice also look better in person - cell phones aren't great at details. Maybe I should do a proper set of glamor shots with my real camera at a point.

* The grey/smokey dice with green ink are like paranormal investigation vibes, so I need them

* The very green dice are gelatinous ooze vibes, they're a D&D monster that eat adventurers and leaves their gear. It's a classic all the way back to the OG basic ed D&D. They are very cool if you understand the reference.

These are not all my dice, but how do I leave any of those behind?

flip a coin?

I think if i had to choose just three, I'd opt for the red dice, the Eddie dice and the paranormal investigation ones. those are appealing to me most right now. but they're all pretty cool, and have different things to offer - I wish you luck narrowing it down!

Those are the three I currently have loaded. They kinda go together, especially in with the case having a dark purple interior. I'm going to have to swap sets, they are all too good.

I vote for the black + rainbow dice, the silver sparkles dice and the very green dice. :-)

I'm going to have to swap them in and all, they are all too good.

On the upside, as much as I love dice, I feel very supplied and not like I need to collect.

My faves are the anodized, then the pink-purple-blue, then the red. But they really are all great! (Though the anodized and the red fill a similar aesthetic niche, so I'd maybe replace the red with the green ooze ones for a broader variety.)

Tough to leave any behind, though!

Yeah, I am going to need to swap dice in and out. I could get a giant case, one of the dice arena ones, but I'd rather keep my kit somewhat manageable.
