3 RPG Dice Sets That Roll Like a Saturday Morning Cartoon

Title card of Space Ghost television episode.

There’s something magical about Saturday morning cartoons. The bold colors, zany characters, and larger-than-life energy captured our imaginations and never really let go. If you’re like me—a GM with a love for nostalgia, vibrant aesthetics, and the satisfying click-clack of dice—it’s only natural to want your dice to reflect a little of that cartoon chaos from childhood.

So if you're pulling inspiration from wild worlds and cinematic action, or just want your session to have that cartoon sparkle, grab your soda and a bowl of overly sugary cereal—because today we’re diving into three RPG dice sets that roll with the energy and style of a Saturday morning cartoon.

If your dice don’t roll like they’re about to shout their own name in a cartoon theme song, you’re missing the magic.

1. VHS Dice Set: Surge Green – Bold Enough for a Saturday Morning Mutant

Seven vibrant green RPG dice with white numbers on a black surface.

Remember the mutant-filled, sewer-dwelling turtle heroes of your childhood? The Surge edition of the 1985 Games VHS Dice Set wouldn’t look out of place in their lair. Bright green, punchy as an action montage, and packed like a collectible VHS tape, this sharp edge dice set doesn’t just roll—it throws a cinematic punch.

Crafted from high-quality resin and packaged in a retro-style VHS box (complete with a laser-cut foam insert for protection), this 7-piece set is perfect for mutant rogues, slime-powered sorcerers, or just anyone who likes their dice loud, bold, and borderline radioactive.

Bonus: It’s basically a collector’s item and a party at your game table.

2. Sweetheart Dice – Pure Cartoon Chaos in a Blind Bag

Love themed dnd mystery dice sets arranged in a black tray.

If your party’s cleric moonlights as an ’80s arcade champion—or your warlock has a soft side—they’ll fall hard for the Sweetheart Mystery Dice Set. As I attempted to explain in an earlier post, just the mystery roll itself is like a self-induced love potion. 

But anyway, this isn’t just a love dice set—it’s a full-blown cartoon power-up.

Each mystery dice bag delivers a surprise 7-piece RPG dice set in dreamy pinks and reds, a heart-themed enamel pin, and a matching sticker. The designs lean romantic, sure, but there's mischief in that swirl. It’s the kind of cheerful chaos that belongs in a magical girl transformation scene—or a campaign full of cursed familiars casting love spells that backfire.

Great for Valentine’s games, bard mains, or anyone who believes crits hit harder when you roll with heart.


Like if a magical girl and a cartoon heartthrob teamed up to design your next mystery dice set.

3. Orange Kawaii Cat Milk Carton Dice – Bright, Bubbly, and Ready to Pounce

If your dice collection doesn’t already include a kawaii cat with citrus vibes, allow me to introduce Orange Cat—the most animated set (so to speak) in Fruit Meadows. This 7-piece resin dice set channels Saturday morning joy like a Froot Loops ad with a feline mascot.

Packaged in a tiny orange milk carton and paired with a matching enamel pin and art sticker, these dice are sunshine incarnate. I used them in a campaign where every character was fruit-themed, and Orange Cat was a chaotic rogue who stole hearts and loot. These dice are bright, bold, and zesty enough to steal the spotlight from even your most glittery d20s.

Dice Should Be Fun, Not Just Functional

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: dice are mood setters. Show me what someone’s rolling with and I’ll get a solid read on their character’s vibe—and their player’s too. When your dice match your setting’s tone, your roleplaying hits harder. When your dice look like a cartoon explosion, you bring that energy into every single combat, every crit, every natural 1.

And who doesn't love a cartoon explosion in their hoard?


Your Table Deserves Style AND Substance

Your dice are both your tools and your toys. You deserve a set that brings a smile to your face with every roll. Whether you're a GM looking to inject some Saturday morning madness into your next campaign or a player whose character feels straight out of an animated intro sequence, these three sets deliver on both flash and fun.

And let’s be real—nothing makes the table go quiet like a nat 20 on a neon d20 that looks like a bag of Skittles exploded. Let your dice do the talking, and let them speak in slapstick, toon-inspired tongue.

Why Your Dice Hate You (And How to Fix It)

Why Your Dice Hate You (And How to Fix It) If you're like me, you've stared at a d20 with fury in your eyes after yet another failed saving throw. You blame bad luck. You threaten your dice. Some of us have even banished them to dice jail. Sound familiar? You're not alone. It might feel like your dice hate you —but there’s more going on here than just misfortune. Let’s dive into the real reasons your rolls are cursed, and more importantly, what you can do about it. The Curse of the Cold Dice Ever sit down to your weekly game and notice that for the first 30 minutes, it’s nothing but ones and threes? You’re not imagining things. Dice that haven’t been rolled or warmed up can behave unpredictably. Plastic, resin, and even sharp-edged dice can roll differently based on minor temperature and wear factors. You might think your dice are cursed, but in reality—they’re just misunderstood. The solution? Get those rolls moving before game time. Roll your dice a few dozen ...

Dice War! Shiny Math Rock Battle of the Bands: Plastic Power vs. Metal Monster

Prepare to melt some faces, dice dragons—it's time to MATH ROCK! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 There are two kinds of adventurers in this world: the ones who want their RPG dice to glide across the table like a whisper, and the ones who want their rolls to land like a warhammer through drywall. Humor me here. Choosing between plastic dice and metal dice is kind of like picking between a corgi and a pit bull—both have their quirks, their licks, as I know too well, their love bites. But one's all about charm and lighthearted fun, while the other is built for protection and power (not to mention power hugs). And if you’ve been around the table long enough, you already know your d&d dice set isn’t just a tool. It’s a mood-setter. A ritual object. A physical echo of your gaming soul.

I Know What You Rolled Last Summer... and It Wasn't Good

Image
Why Your Dice Matter More Than You Think We’ve all been there. The sun was shining, snacks were stacked, your party was geared up for a legendary quest—and then it happened. A cruel streak of ones. An insult to your bard’s dignity. A betrayal of wizarding proportions. I’m talking about those rolls. The cursed kind. The kind you'll never live down because your DM won’t let you forget. "That beachside one-shot ended with my cleric falling off a lighthouse because I rolled a natural one three times. In a row." Last summer was supposed to be epic: a vacation-themed TTRPG extravaganza with my core group. We had premade characters, a custom setting (“Palm of the Forgotten Gods,” thank you very much), and mood lighting. But what we didn't have was luck. Dice luck, specifically. This is my story. But more importantly, it's yours too. Because if you’ve played tabletop RPGs for any length of time, you've probably suffered from brutal dice betrayal. Fortunately,...
