6 models, no miscasts...
But seriously, it looks like it could be done in plastic and given how many of those they are making that'd make the most sense - much cheaper.

They're plastic, drybrushed a bunch.

From the US GW site's blog

And in other news:

This weekend the Warhammer 40,000 Munitorum Dice will be going on sale on our website. They will not be on advance order, but ready to purchase immediately. As shown in White Dwarf, each set comes with a Lasgun magazine dice tin to keep them safe and a set of Servo-skull dice holders should you need to mark something with them (such as an objective, a destroyed weapon or a wounded character). Bear in mind that they will only be available while stocks last, so if you do want them then make sure you roll over to the website (see what I did there?) and order them quickly.

What all different dice are they going to be selling? Any "normal" D6 or just these fancy marker ones?

**pixelgeek**

This is an odd development to say the least. One has to suspect that this is a manufacturing problem that has lead to a very limited initial supply.

The dice were not advertised as a splash release and they are prominently featured in the rules so it would be asinine for them to make the dice limited.

Most likely some problem producing the dice in China

like space hulk?

**SagesStone**

Or all those other limited edition dice?

which, to be fair, were a whole lot less useful than some of these are.

None of which are directly referenced in charts in the rule books so I don't see how it is the same thing

Tom polder (who posted pic) is from Netherlands so that's 13 euros (phew!)

**Bolognesus**

hurrah for crappy phone pics again!

**jspyd3rx**

I just got mine at my local flgs. Really limited, so you guys best hurry to pick some up. Our group in Miami Florida is quite large, so it sucks that we only got ten in out store.

**FrozenSoul80**

When are these going up on the GW website?

**Wolf_Ov_The_Void**

@ ThomasPolder

Suppose you bought the dice @ GW Amersfoort just like i did, we are lucky to be Dutch

**Bolognesus**

Nope not amersfoort. Seems to be an issue in communicating release dates in the entire NLregion then though.

**Kroothawk**

Just for the record:
Dice are up on "New Releases".

And when I ordered some, I was informed they are treated as an Advance order? Seems odd.
