Review on ๐Ÿ“ฆ Mimic Chest by Forged Dice Co by Bill Lyons

Revainrating 2 out of 5

i want to love it for game accessories

has been an amazing dice holder for quite some time. I eagerly opened it only to find an unfortunate amount of flaws in the workmanship of what I received. On the plus side: it feels very durable and quite heavy! The weathered paint looks amazing - it looks like a chest that has been used for years. It holds a lot more cubes than I expected even after looking at the photos - it's deceptively spacious! I love the latch that keeps the lid closed - it's a great design and feels secure, and it's easy to open even with big hands. Negative side: - I can see the glue coming out of the hinges - looks like it was hastily applied. , and it looks like the glue has expanded as it dried, causing the hinge to lift and the lid not fitting flush on all sides. Some screws are not fully screwed in and one of them is inserted at an angle so that the screw head is sticking out. Some of the teeth appear chipped and only partially stained. I hope to hear from the seller and will update my review if anything changes.

Pros
  • QUALITY: Handmade from high quality polyresin. At 1lb 8oz, this mimic is not lightweight. Quality hinges and a working latch that keeps the lid closed make this a great storage solution to carry around or leave in plain sight during a board game.
Cons
  • Weight
