D&D: Five Accessories To Make You Feel Like A Kid Again
Your inner child will be delighted when these nostalgia fueled D&D accessories show up at your gaming table.
D&D is many of our favorite forms of escapism right now. But if you too grew up with Saturday morning cartoons helping you travel to far off lands, this list is for you. These accessories will make you feel like a little kid again and be the talk of your table. As always, links to shops are in the item descriptions.
Pokeball Dice Box
Pokemon fever hit my school so hard in middle school. Your favorite Pokemon was basically a personality test (Jigglypuff), and finding the shiny Charizard was a matter of pride. It’s so weird to see that Pokemon is still popular with kids, and while I’ll never learn all of the new ones, seeing my nieces and nephews excited about something that I used to love is genuinely sweet and wonderful. And if you, too, are nostalgic for the days of pocket monsters, this dice box will help you collect all of the gym badges. It’s a simple design, but with room for an entire set of D&D dice and twelve magnets keeping the ball shut tight, your dice will be safe and sound between games. Pick your favorite kind of ball (including a Team Rocket style!) and start making friend with all of the D&D animals.
DiceSaber
This may be my new favorite dice vault. Have you ever wanted a lightsaber of your own? Well this one slides open to reveal your dice! You truly can customize the saber of your dreams with choices of hilt and blade colors. Unfortunately I think the FFG Star Wars game may require too dang many dice to fit in this dicesaber, but I think if you showed up to the game with a saber and a big bag of more dice, everyone at the table would not only understand but be visibly jealous. I sure would.
Care Bear Dice Bag
This Care Bear drawstring bag is a blast from the past. It’s fleece lined, double paracord drawstringed, and has a button flap closure. So your dice will be extra safe and sound, just how the Care Bears would want. I can’t promise your players will be as kind or caring as the Bears, but at least your dice bag will have that Care Bear energy!
Castle Popper Dice Roller
Have you ever played D&D and thought, “This needs more pop’o’matic bubble?” Well then have I found the dice tower for you. Instead of rolling your dice town the tower, this short castle will let you bounce them with delightful old school board game nostalgia. I love this thing, and I can honestly say that if anyone showed up to my table with one, it would be all we used for the rest of the session. In fact, I may get one for the table myself.
She-Ra Inspired Dice Vault
We’ve seen a couple of weapon inspired dice vaults around here. There brilliant and fun ways to get your dice to the table. But this one has a twist. Inspired by She-Ra’s Sword of Protection, this dice dagger will have the kid in all of us fighting for our friends and justice. If you’re a fan of the design but don’t need more dice vaults though, it’s also available as a toy prop.
