Gents,
As anyone who has played a game with me knows, I LOVE dice. Most of the time, I am using "Dakka Dice," which are D6's with the logo from the "Dakka Dakka" website on the face where the 6 normally goes. I am kicking around the idea of making similar custom dice for this website, so I was curious to see what the interest would be. My plan right now is to order them in several colors, but I'm not sure yet what is available. Pricing will be roughly $1 per die (we are talking the larger 12MM D6s, not the smaller 6MM ones). Likewise, the logo will have to be made as well. I have a few ideas of what I would like to do, but I'm open to suggestions too!
So, if you think you might be interested, let me know by posting below. When I get production details finalized and have a set of colors to show you, I will start the formal ordering process proper.

I'd be interested. Heck, Greg and Dale might even pay for mine just so I stop using the red dice of doom.
-
I, too, would be interested!
-
I'll only buy them if they roll better than my current dice.
And if they roll worse than Stephan's current dice.
-
I'd be interested, however pricing and such would be a factor.
-
Interested here. A set with built in +1 (for Spartan stuff) and a set with built in -1 (for SFB and the like) would be much appreciated.

That sounds like a good idea, @$1 each I don't know about buying a whole block though! :P

I'm not sure what you mean...are you saying you want a die that goes from 2 to 7, or 0 to 5?

Ahhh...I see I got it wrong in my first post. These will actually be 16MM dice, not the 12MM. Sorry about that! These normally run roughly 80 US cents a die, so $1 isn't all that much more.
As for the design, here is the emblem I'm planning on using:

This logo would take the place of the "6."

That makes a lot more sense then 8) a 16mm die will show off the logo better too ;).

Okay everyone! The samples are done, and they look great. I am now moving to the ordering phase. You have about two weeks to get your orders in. Find all the details here:

Awesome! I like the logo--clear & simple.
