Are the numbers on these just painted onto the surface of the dice? I'd be concerned with durability over time.
Also, the black numbers on purple look like visibility would be an issue.
HellpopI've bought dice from MDG before and these look the same as the others which are just stickers. I got some of the fake turqouise dice and a couple of the numbers were crooked. It should be known that I've gotten four other sets besides the fake turquoise set and they were all fine. And at arms length they look fine.
If you plan on rolling these a lot I would definitely use the softest felt dice tray you have and stay away from rolling multiple dice at a time. They are quite weighty and over time could definitely chip or tear the stickers.
As for visibility; it isn't as bad as it looks, but it could be better.
MonsterIslandMisfitumm...the dice I got are all painted...here's the link to the drop

Don't know if maybe it's just different lines of dice, but all the numbers in my 6 sets of dice were painted. Even so, the paint was inconsistent on one of the d10's, but I got 6 sets of dice and the rest were very good quality, so...I dunno.
Arker_1Yes, those are acrylic (plastic) dice with engraved, painted numbers. The "stone" dice that MDG sells are quite different. Namely the numbers are not engraved, so they use what are effectively stickers for the numbers.
So yes, they are a different line of dice with different attributes.
