And people are always looking for more dice
Kickstarter copied into quote tag and spoilered for length, for the work blocked.
Spoiler:
Quality custom dice you can afford and a design process that's easy - even if you're not a graphic designer.
Help us provide the gaming community with customized 16mm (standard size) D6 dice - with more colors, shapes, and sizes available when we reach higher funding levels!
Right now, if you want to make custom dice for a game prototype, print-n-play game, or just to customize your old Yahtzee! game, it'll cost you several dollars per die - before shipping.
We see a way to provide the same quality engraved custom dice at a fraction of the cost. But we can't do it without your help, we need funds to purchase the necessary supplies and equipment (primarily meaning thousands of dice and a Trotec laser engraver)!
Better still, with an easy to use website, we want to simplify the actual design process to a point where ANYone can design their own custom dice easily. Our site includes thousands of stock graphics plus the ability to use your own graphics (as long as you own the copyright). In fact, all of the graphic elements we used in designing this project page below are available for use in designing your dice on our website - plus thousands more!
These add-ons are available to anyone with a pledge level of $6 or more (anyone actually receiving a shipment). You can include as many add-ons with your pledge as you like.
Shipping: No additional shipping charges required for add-ons.
Interesting. One thing I would be worried about is Copyright Images being used to create the dice. Other than That it sounds like an interesting Idea. I don't like the solid color style and would like to see some clear or crystalesq styles, which might come later.

This is a neat idea in that it is something I haven't seen with a Kickstarter before. The roll it forward pledge level and add on are very interesting indeed.
Kirasu: Have we fallen so far that we are excited that GW is giving us the opportunity to spend 58$ for JUST the rules? Surprised it's not "Dataslate: Assault Phase"
