Packaging Information
Filecard Information
Rumor has it that DICE was once a Cobra NIGHT CREEPER, but was kicked out for being TOO evil! Dice operates as a partner to the Cobra Ninja Swordsman SLICE, specializing in choke holds, pressure points, snares, traps, blunt instruments and eye-gouging. His weapon of choice is the Bo-Staff, which he can manipulate with blinding speed and bone crushing power. His most dreaded technique is a motion he calls the "Flying Dragon." Dice is most troublesome when he gets behind the wheel of the Cobra Rat.

Body Construction
Dice's body is entirely original - no parts were taken from other figures.
Dice's entire mold was re-used in 1993 to create Red Ninja.
Like all the Ninja Force figures, Dice's body was designed with a "real ninja move." Dice was designed with a spring-action hip. So if Dice's left arm was pushed back, his upper torso turned left. When the arm was let go, the torso sprang back forward - thus creating a round-house punching motion with the left arm.
