I've got several Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas promotional items, and since I'm an idiot I have no idea what the four silver things pictured below are...

Also, anyone know why the dice have holes for screws in them? Are the silver things supposed to hold the dice in place or something? I can't find pictures of these anywhere on the 'net...

Thanks in advance!

If the dice have screw holes in them, I'm guessing they are to put on your bike tires. I remember kids had those on all the time. And those other things, no idea.

Probally some "gangsta" thing so you can screw them into your giant fake gold chain or something.

I agree with foodmonster, the dice look like they are valve caps for a bike. As for the silver things, they look like links for a bike chain, don't know what they could be used for though. What do they look like on the back?

How did you get that stuff?

Or bottlecap openers.

Or bottlecap openers.

I thought that at first too, then I realized that if the dice ARE valve caps they'd either have to be huge, or those openers are for tiny bottles, cause look at the size comparisson.

Now see I've never seen those bike values before, to my immediate knowledge anyway, that's why I thought bottlecap openers at first.

Novelty valve caps are usually pretty small, about the size of a dime, nickle or quarter at the biggest. Sorry if I sounded like a jerk :)

So I guess...no one really knows for sure? Retro gamers just aren't cool enough apparently. ;)

I think the guess about the dice being used as valve caps is probably right...the hole seems to be the right size.

Thanks for all the responses!
