I'm betting there's a fairly large overlap between LEGO-geeks and

of digits 1-6 on the faces, I have building block representations with one

Green, but no black?  It's _almost_ the classic color assortment.


Yeah, I have blank black dice, but they are harder to ink with white ink for
technical reasons, so I just stuck with the other five colors..


The "5" side was tricky since there is not a standard 1x5 brick,

There's always the 1x1 brick with studs on four sides!  I'm sure there are
plenty of other options out there as well, but each one will probably get
progressively farther away from the look of basic bricks.  Well, except one,
which is to do all numbers in terms of X amount of 1x1 bricks.
