Phase 10 dice game wanted.

[roylt]

Was wondering if anyone had a set of Phase 10 dice they'd be willing to part with. I never heard of the game growing up and only found the cards as I was cleaning out my uncles farm after he passed. I enjoy the card game and would like the dice version.

Anyway, let me know and thanks,

We have the card game, Ive never seen the dice version.

Crazy. It’s a $7 dice game. But unavailable anywhere. On the secondary market they are asking $100!

You would think the company that owns the rights would make more. They could sell it for $20 and make a great profit.

I might buy the card game since you like it so much.

That’s it, but there is no way to buy it. I think it’s sold out. Hope you find a set Roy.

There have been several listed and sold on both eBay and Amazon since this thread started. All for around $40. They sell as fast as they are listed at that price. Even sets that are missing dice sell for over $20! Apparently there is quite a lot of people who like this game in dice form.

Fundex sold phase 10 to Mattel in 2010 then went bankrupt in 2012. Phase 10 was their most successful game, but I don’t know if they mean the cards or dice version.

Keep an eye on EBay, be ready to pounce quick. Maybe a cheap buy it now will pop up.

Or making your own from wood might be a fun project with the kids.

The card game is fun for sure. I have a friend that has the dice game and it is a little different and moves at a faster pace. I plan to contact him and copy the dice. I found online the number format but no information on the color coding. I'm sure I can copy his but an original set would be nice. He is out of town so we don't see each other much. And when we do we use the time to catch up. Games are a second thought or third.

Thanks for the input and I agree very cheap game should be had for 5 - 10 bucks. Mattel should bring it back.
