D Total
Inspired by Youseph’s and Bridget’s Gamescience dice reviews, I searched the internet for more information on Gamescience dice. I watched a couple of YouTube videos of Lou Zocchi explaining why his dice are far superior to any other dice, before I stumbled upon this very interesting video about the D Total!
I didn’t get any of those at Gen Con, because they were a bit too expensive for my taste. But the D Total is definitely one of the most impressive dice I’ve ever seen!

There's a good experimental analysis of the randomness of various makes of a dice (all d6) at:

It doesn't make the more common, cheaper dice look very good. Of course, we don't know whether gamescience would fare any better, but my guess would be they'd be in the "square corners with pips" category.

I think their dice look great – but aside from the sales pitches, there has yet to be any real evidence to prove that they are any better than regular dice.
If I happen to get some in the future, fine – but there's cheaper alternatives that are (until dis-proven) just as good. I have used the Zocchihedron and find it pretty fun, though.
But with all of that said, I'd like to try that D Total.
