They're pretty, but they don't roll any better than most other d20s for me (which could just be because I used to just toss those ones into a drawer and ignore them ( " 'orrible D&D things.") and now when I actually need them, they repay that sentiment in spades.
and they've told all of the other d20s out there as well.

Yes one must care for and love their dice, lest the dice gods become angry.
Seriously i have so many sets of dice because i like to have the unique ones for every faction.
I got a bunch of 40K ones from baron of dice, as well as his battle tech roll sets and infinity.
then i picked up more from scrapyardork for battle tech. Japanese navy dice from fatboy games for my victory at sea fleet. still have all my FOW dice for the armies i used to play even though i am out of that game. That's not counting the proprietary dice for DUST and monpoc.

Interesting. They are described as larger than regular d20s.
@aphyon, when you get yours, could you post a photo of them next to some other d20s -- if you have any -- for comparison?
I have a dice jail for bad dice. It was a gift. Just something amusing to have when playing RPGs.

Thanks.That would be great.
The dice from the battlebox sets are ~20mm. I have a 26mm d20, and a few 30mm and 34mm d20s, but nothing at 22mm, which is the Infinity dice size according to the Baron of Dice site, and I cannot estimate how they might fit in the hand.

It helps quite a bit. 22mm seems a nice size. Those numbers look nicely incised too. I think I'll treat myself to a few sets. Haqq dice set is a given, but for the 2nd set, hmmm. I do like red dice ( they roll faster.) so maybe the generic red set , the thrice coalition.
Thank you very much aphyon.
Edit to remove repetition.

I have a small mountain of dice from Baron Of Dice for Star Wars Legion, Battletech, and Old World. Great guy and I have liked each of the sets of dice I have gotten from him.

I did order 3 sets of these dice, Haqq, Yu Jing and Pan-o. These are the 3 factions for which I have the most minis. I am quite pleased with them. They are noticeably larger, 3mm longer from tip to tip, than my other d20s, and about 3 grams heavier than most other d20s I have. Here's another photo for size comparison. Top blue die is chessex, green die is GameScience, bottom die is Icestorm Nomad die and Red-Orange die is Yu Jing from Kaldstrom. Center is BoD.
ETA: I hit the exalt button by mistake instead of edit. D'Oh.
