If one of those big hard foam dice* is included too, well then toss another $5 or so on top of the old $22 price for a single stash. I'd definitely pay $28 for a Giant Treehouse set. Without the die though the pyramids aren't as useful. Could you make a cardboard (or corregated plastic or whatever) die? It shouldn't be too hard at all to design a cut-and-fold / tab-A-in-slot-B 8x die that is at least basically fair.** What's my upper limit? Would I pay, say, $32 for Giant Treehouse? If it came a solid die, yes; a cut-and-fold die, maybe. $40? Probably not, even with a solid die. Ryan * Perhaps this discussion of 8x Treehouse sets would be a reasonable place for me to retiterate my request to include the numbers 1-6 on the dice as well. You get enough Giant Treehouse sets together (with the included dice) and you can play Blockade or Martian Backgammon (or Martian Race, if I may be so bold). ** Use three rectangles that are basically 8"x16". Surround each rectangle with alternating tabs edges and slot edges (three of each). Those should fit together nicely into a d6. Why, you might be asking, wouldn't you use two 8x24" reactangles (fit together like a baseball)? With the die put together like that, two of the face would have only two heavy slot-and-tab edges while the other four sides have three heavy edges each. By using three 8x16's, all six sides have three heavy slot-and-tab edges. And don't even get me started on the classic cross pattern for folding a cube.
