Looking for d8 dice numbered 1-4 twice

Pretty much what the subject says. I'm tired of rolling those pesky pyramid-shaped d4's and am not much of a fan of those pill-shaped ones, either.

I should probably wade through the "funky dice" thread, but I was hoping that someone could point me to a place where I can buy some 8-sided dice numbered 1-4 twice.

Did a google search and found a source for the dice I wanted at DICE & GAMES LIMITED in England. There were no color choices to pick from, but the picture looked like white with black numbers.

I ordered a few and will report back as to quality, etc, when they arrive.

I picked up some 12 siders numbered 1-4 thrice (w/ Roman numerals) at GenCon a few years back, they’ve become my “d4” of choice. Google seems to suggest that they’re readily available from multiple sources, if you're not fully content w/ the 8 siders you ordered.

That's so cool! I love d12's more than probably any other dice! I agree, however, that I need to wait and see what I get first d8-wise.... but I may have to order some anyway! 8)

D12 numbered 1-4x3 sound cool. These will be the next dice I buy for sure. :D

I forgot I actually have two types of 12 sided d4s -

The one w/ Roman numerals (marbleized) http://i.imgur.com/E85mEMy.jpg

And the larger pipped ones ("Who knew" sized) http://i.imgur.com/1lqpr40.jpg
