Let me know if you find any value in reviews like this, or if there’s anything you’d like to see instead!

FYI, the cork cover isn't supposed to stay on the base. It's so you can practice getting the d20 in the sweet spot without damaging the base or the die.

I love your disclaimer at the beginning. The way you explained everything in plain, easy to understand English showed a lot of class.

[Elythia]

It would be nice, if they figure out a way to make it actually roll through the air. I would also love to see a combination of led lights and glowing glitter or something similar for some cool "magical rolling" effects.

I honestly think this not that useful, and really expensive... but I love it!. Love custom dices, the LED ones, and the gemstone ones too.

I think it would be interesting to 3D print a dice tower with the result ending up on the center of the base and floating

So I backed it on Kickstarter because, like you I am huge dork for this kind of stuff. However, I also was inspired to create a set of combat mechanics around this die. It’s not an Every Battle event, only break it out for big fights. Boss fights. Because I want my players to feel like they’re doing epic level stuff. 😁

I like the concept. Worth 200? I dunno. I'd break bank on that at 100 personally. But I would love to have it. I'd also love one of these bases that can display a Tron Disk. Levitating desk art is pretty awesome, but this takes it to a new level of fun-utility!

so most modern electronics are not sensitive to magnets. It was the old cathode ray tubes, magnetic platter spinning disc hard drives, floppy disks and magnetic tape storage devices that were sensitive to magnetic fields. None of which are in use today. It would take an incredibly intense magnetic field an order of magnitude larger than this to effect solid state storage or a capacitor.

The only thing left in a modern computer impacted by magnet might be the speakers.... but you'd have to place a pretty strong magnet basically inside the speaker to do anything to it, and it wouldn't hurt it, just distort the sound.

Hey I just found your channel and have watched a few videos before turning in for the night; you're awesome man, your videos feel so fun and genuine. It's great.

[RIVERSRPGChannel]

That’s awesome
However I don’t think it’s worth a divorce

[cyclopean_overlord]

Thanks for the review! I think the dice are quite beautiful as well aside from their leviatory (leviative?) powers.

[storyspren]

I have the store page for this thing bookmarked and want it so bad. Space and money keep me from buying it on impulse, but I will get it some day
I'm happy to hear about how long the spinning lasts though, that adds to the magical vibe 👀

[Aemirys]

OMG i love this!! So glad to have discovered your channel!

[Emloch]

Why anyone would make the decision of using cork, above all other choices, as a mat for this display is beyond me. It's very ugly aesthetically.

[kaksspl]

You could incorporate it into the roleplay. Set it in the middle of a table, let it spin. Players can at any time knock the die down to use it as a magical artifact granting them advantage, but only once per session.Once the die is down, it remains down until the next gathering.

cover idea: the divine chalk alter shown in the 3.5 dungon master guide, under prestige classes.

[kevinolive]

The first thing that caught my eye on your “set” is the brown chest on your left that is nearly identical to one I received as a gift when I was 12 that including the broken clasp on the front. I think mine got incorporated into the Christmas pageant at church and it was no longer mine. The floating die is cool. I remember having a bunch of magnets at one time.

[grimreminder]

An awesome looking conversation piece, but the price? 200 is a bit steep just for an energy reliant D20. Then again, if you wanna keep an eye on it should it attempt to grow legs and disappear, worthy choice
