Dice Australia / New Zealand

Richard „Virral“ Andrew of Canberra, Australia organisated 2013 a Indiegogo project

„The Australian Fantasy Football community is large and vibrant, and in order to celebrate that I’ve commissioned designs for a uniquely Australian set of Block Dice. Originally they were intended as a small custom run for players at Eucalytpus Bowl 2013, however the popularity of the design and the demand for a variety of Australia themed colours soon led to me to consider a much larger release.

Desgined by the amazing Melvin de Voor, the designs themselves are made to strongly evoke Australian themes, while at the same time remaining clearly recognisable as Block Dice. We have selected the Koala and the Gum Leaf as the main elements, alongside the styalised outline of Australia itself!

The colour combinations we have selected are all designed to remind owners of an aspect of the beauty and diversity that Australia contains.“

And after a while some more dice of Australian and New Zealand showed up, too. 🙂
