04-06-08, 04:53 PM As my love for collecting dice has grown, so too has my regret for letting my very first set of dice go... After some research I was able to find out who held my original dice, and being my good friend he gave them back to me (for free at that!) But alas to my horror the d12 was missing! Now I need to find a replica dice for that d12 but the problem grows as it was a multi-coloured die set from "The New Easy to Master Dungeon & Dragons Game."

Ok, enough build up! My question is this: Does anyone remember the colour of that d12?

Thank you in advance.

Hope this helps.

Thank you Stardrake, I was fairly confident it was black with white... but I didn't want to influence any answers.

Thanks again.

Dragonmark... you are speaking of a much older box set. I'd love to have an original set of those dice!

04-07-08, 12:10 AM The first set of dice I had, which was inherited, was a pasty looking light blue with no color on the numbers. I think it came with a box set of basic D&D. Sadly, I gave them (my only set!!) to my cousin from Ireland who I turned onto the game when he visited many years ago.
