Where can I get some pyramids?
As of 2024, Looney Pyramids are most readily available for purchase in the form of rounded-tip, die-injected plastic pieces. The most abundant current source of these is Pyramid Arcade, the multi-game set sold via the Looney Labs store. Retail game stores and book shops are also a good source of Looney Pyramids, sold in boxed copies of Zendo, Nomids, Martian Chess (opaque red color only), Ice Duo, and Homeworlds. The color Silver can be obtained only from the Looney Labs store website when buying a copy of Martian Chess and selecting the silver option, which costs extra compared to the standard Martian Red color for that product. The color Pink can only be obtained through buying the zippered-pouch set of Pink Hijinks. The color Kickstarter Green can be purchased directly from the website, and is the only product where pyramids can be obtained without an accompanying game or set of rules.

You can also acquire pyramids by making them yourself via folding paper pieces, or even making giant cardboard pieces.
To acquire the older style of injection-molded pyramids with the pointed tips, search second-hand markets for the terms Treehouse, Ice Dice, and Pink Hijinks. For rare pyramids such as the semi-precious stone pieces that used to be made by Crystal Caste, check second-hand markets such as eBay.
