I would be extremely surprised if they were metal, or even to scale.
Looks like an instagram post more than a picture he took. I bet it's from a location that got them in and just snapped a picture.
Oh yeah, sorry - yes, saw them on Instagram - don't think they're available just yet...
Those look better than the pair I got from china off ebay....they were about 1/2 scale!
Just some observations from someone who spent way to long analyzing the Last Jedi screen used dice:
-The actual icon shapes are not too bad. The six sided icon is twisted for some reason. They also could have been a bit deeper.
-The icon positions are not movie accurate. Specifically the faces they were placed on, and their orientation. Example: The top of the pentagon shape points to the split circle, when it should point towards the six sided shape.
-The icons are not oriented correctly when you compare the chain link position to the Last Jedi screen used dice. The link should be located between the 2 (Circle), 5 (Pentagram), and 1 (i) icons.
-The corners are not rounded off correctly. They have a uniform small diameter cornering, which is easy to do in 3D CAD software. The screen used dice have a different diameter in the corners then the edges. This is difficult to duplicate in CAD software.
-They are a bit to dark in color, but this is most likely due to a zinc die-cast. This would be more forgivable if it weren't for that ultra bright gold chain attached.
A few months ago a promotional company wanted my CAD design for a limited run related to the movie. I wonder if this was them? I gave them a price and they went radio silent. I guess they decided to do it themselves.
You can of course gold plate anything, so these may make a good item to purchase and upgrade yourself.
I can't wait to watch the movie, I have my tickets for tomorrow!
