ABOUT
Roll a perception check! Capable of engulfing almost anything and dissolving organic matter with its acidic form, the gelatinous cube is a beloved and iconic D&D monster. Now, this gelatinous cube has engulfed four dry erase boards. You'll have to reach inside it to claim them—if you dare.
The boards included in this set are ideal for drawing any map that you can imagine. Each board is gridded and double-sided—the front features a square grid (1”), while the back provides a hexagonal grid (1” diagonally). The displayable box will also hold your dice, pencils, pens, markers, or other accessories.
Whether you’re mapping out an abandoned castle or creepy forest, or simply looking for an incredible display piece, the Gelatinous Cube Board Set is a must-have for D&D players, RPG fans, and fantasy lovers.
*Dry erase markers not included.
STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS
Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.
In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.
The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
