Welcome to Purple Pawn, covering games played around the world by billions of people every day.
The Dice Turret is a (GASP) cardboard dice tower that is supposedly very strong considering the stuff it’s made of. The main advantage of a cardboard tower? Well there’s 2, actually. One is that the tower is very portable, since you can basically flat pack it. The second advantage is price. These puppies sell for a whopping $5.99 for a plain, white tower and $10.99 for a deluxe tower (which are pretty ugly, in my opinion.)
I can definitely see a need in the market for a low priced dice tower. This may be just the thing for those who can’t afford pricey VixenTor towers, and who aren’t crafty enough to make their own cardboard tower.

2Robert, I love that you are giving a review of the tower. However, please give it a full review (for good or bad). Send me an email with your address and I will send you one for your FULL review.
As for the designs, these are the start of some designs. If anybody has some ideas or art work, send it along and I will take a look at it. Design is always subjective. Maybe an art contest is order???
Thanks,
Brian

3I’m the guy who makes these wonderful little contraptions. I like the positive things you have mentioned about the turrets. However, I would really like your FULL review on one. Send me your shipping address and I’ll get one to you.
I’m not worried about the Graphic choices. I got some of the same comment and some that loved them. I have made adjustments to the color schemes and actual photos of the prints will be up Monday night or Tuesday the latest. It will also be the time when the graphics officially go on sale.
Thanks for you mini review and can’t wait for a FULL review.
Brian
