Just wanted to share ideas on what the "alternate style" dice prize will look like. Last year, the translucent dice were the hot commodity, but they were shown in the Regional promo picture. Without any pictures, what could FFG mean by alternate style? What say you?
[Speculation] 2015 Regional Prize - Alternate Style Dice
Completely normal but 2 foot long on each edge. Turbolasers should not be something that people don't notice when they are fired.
I bet they're the same dice, which is why they are not pictured.
You could have different booms/kabooms style or change the dice color.
Edited by DeltmiThey only have one hit result. You just placed Top 4 at Regionals. You can work around that handicap.
I'm guessing the original production run probably had some air bubbles that made them less than photogenic.
I had the very good fortune to win a set of the elusive dice last Sunday. As you will most likely have learned bu now the 2015 Regionals edition have a more marbled look and I actually really like the look. I also love my translucent dice from last yeah despite the visible bubbles.
Since I have access to a CT-scanner I immediately felt the urge to scan and compare the 2 dice editions. And the results can be seen below:
The new 2015 edition dice are the 3 leftmost dice both pictures
The setup of dice before scanning. Everything is supervised by R2-D2 who insisted on being there.
3D-MIP reconstruction af the CT scan (picture of the screen). The blue volumes (ROI's) are colored Region Of Interest) where I used the software to color the air bubbles inside each dice. The viewing angle is "opposite" compared to the photo above.
I might scan the original dice later this week, so stay tuned
They look like the dice from Attack Wing...
Still want though 
My translucent dice need new friends too.

Saw an unboxing video for the prize kit, and they do look exactly like the swirly almost metallic finish of the Attack Wing dice.
Personally I want another set of clear dice, so I'm hoping they become less popular with the swirly finish available...
They're ATC dice. Rub in how awesome ATC is by rolling an eight crit die.
Can you post the DICOM CT image files, or are R2-D2's medical records still private?
Edit: and RTSTRUCT, assuming that's where the ROIs are.
