How many RPG dice do you own?

[aramis erak]

Best estimate.

I put in 500+...
I may actually cross 1000+, and certainly used to, but my kids deleted a large part of my dice bag when they were little.
I've got about 200 FFG dice alone. 135 for SW/Genesys, 80 for L5R
I've got multiple sets of T2K and Blade Runner dice (4 and 2, IIRC)...
I've mutiple sets of Alien dice - tho' not needed, they do add a lot of in-setting Flavor...
I've several cubes worth of d6's... essential for running D6 star wars, Tunnels and Trolls, and Monsters! Monsters!

And I've enough dice to handle a D&D run easily. At least a half-dozen full sets of standard poly array.

3d16 from the 90's, when I ran T2K 2e (I puzzled over the aging rule for about 15 minutes, then realized they set the rerolls to be essentially 1d16 < Att to cost 1 point of that attribute... and so bought 3. My players found it FAR superior.

I've 5 sets of gray standard polies for use with Sentinel Comics... Why? it just felt neutral enough. And made them stand out against my players' assorted panoply of colored sets.

I've a 1.5" d6 specifically for phase counts in Battlestations! It is big enough to be read clearly within arms reach of the table it's upon. (1/5" pips)

I've 2d7 because they're cool.
I've 2d7 double marked (physically d14)...
I've a doublemarked d10 (physically 1d20 marked 0-9 twice.)
1 remaining Zocchi "plus mark" d20... 0···9, +0···+9.
1d50.
4d3 (bought a pack of 12, gifted one to each of my players while running Talisman Adventures)

And a bunch more leftover from before my kids, tho' some are absent due to said kids...

Not that many, I haven't counted them but probably 60-70.

I'm surprised that more people haven't confessed to "Not Enough". I do see that we have a number of Dice-aholic Anonymous members though. {Waves} "Hi all! I'm GuardianLurker, and I don't have enough dice! (Even though I solely play on VTTs now.

While I have thousands of dice, I've sort of given up on collecting dice. I had restrictions on my collecting to try and keep it sane. I relaxed those restrictions to give myself some positive reinforcement for sticking with my health goals. And now I'm not sure what other dice I would get. I'm sure there's some out there I don't know about, or that will come in the future. I'll probably buy em when I see em. But I've switched to collecting decks of cards (hey, they are also randomizers, just dependent rather than independent).

I went hardcore into collecting dice during lockdown, but have subsequently given away most of them. I want dice that are interesting and bring something new to the table, rather than just having differently colored dice for their own sake.

So I have some dice with inclusions (like an oversized d20 with a shark bursting out of the water that I got off of Etsy), a liquid core die (an oversized one that I use for the rolls in boss fights), ones printed with interesting stuff (like a Monty Python black knight d6 that shows him losing appendages as the pips get lower), etc.

I think I only have one "ordinary" set of dice, which are very pretty "blue blood" polyhedrals from Chessex.
