Looking for Something Different, Like a Dragon?

By Rob Baer | January 3rd, 2013 | Categories: Tabletop Gaming Products

Looking to get something for that gamer out there that has everything? Or maybe trying to help appease the spirits of your own dice?

Check these little guys out.

My buddy Jack starting making these neat little dice critters as something to do to hang out with his wife (she doesn’t like to game).  They are very well done, and 100% handmade by them.

He came up to the shop the other day to enlist my help with some new paint techniques, because he attended one of my “How to Paint Classes” a year or so ago, and was telling me all about a ton of stuff going on with him and his family.

Recently his families’ dollars became stretched a little thinner as his son got an early acceptance to West Virginia University.  Plus he already has a big commute work everyday as land isn’t cheap in the metro area here.

That coupled with driving completely back in the opposite direction to get his son from magnet school, really put a pinch on their pocket books this holiday. Which means more money out the door to OPEC as well.

To help make ends meet, he and his wife started selling these cute little guys on Esty, and has been selling a few here and there which is cool and really appeals to my entrepreneurial spirit.

They have 21 different figures available, right now over on their Etsy shop. So hey if you got a spare buck or two and can help out a fellow gamer, why not pick one up? -MBG
