Not super large, but maybe big enough to get the point across? Haha

Well, here are my thoughts:

1. Price. Critical Hit Die, Jumbo D20, Set of foam dice all run about 10-15 dollars, and fall into the "Novelty dice" category. I think a entry level popper should be available for that cost, at lest under 20.
   
   
2. I haven't tested it, but I don't see any reason why you couldn't put more then one die in one of these, so large ones made for multiple die would be cool.
   
   
3. Readability would be a concern here. It's important the dome is clear enough to easily read through, and doesn't distort the die to the point of making it unreadable unless you are above it. How low the dice sits in it would also be a concern. Looking at the pictures, it looks like this is all covered though, but I would have to have one sitting on my game table to be sure.
   
   
4. Feet. Here some testing would need to be done. I'm thinking of two separate approaches to this, but I'm not sure which would be more popular. First approach is standard foam feet in each corner to keep it from scratching the table and from sliding. Second approach is, why not embrace the sliding? You are going to be passing this back and forth, so why not put a Teflon base on it (like on the bottom of a good mouse). Not only would it prevent scratching, it should give it a nice glide action to push it back and forth across the table between players. Maybe a felt bottom? Lots of possibilities here.
   
   
5. Customibility. Shapes, sizes, colors...themes. Obviously this would come later...but a Numenera themed one with a d20 and d6 already inside would not only fetch you more money...but it would also mean that people are more likely to buy more then one, since they might want one for all the Tabletop games they play, or if a GM received a themed one from his group as a gift, he might want to get a regular one for other games if he likes it.
   
   
6. Super deluxe digital version. It has special die you have to use for it, and it can tell what the roll is, and announces it in a programmable, selectable voice. Would it be cheap? No. Would people buy it, just to put there voice laughing manically when their player rolls a 1? Of course. Also, no more "roll and grab" or debate on what the roll was or any of that.

Link for the foam dice if anyone needs. The 2 6 sided I already had and can't remember where I got.

For some laughs, these aren't too expensive.

Here are some slightly over-sized foam dice. They may not be big enough for what you need though. Thinkgeek used to carry an even bigger set, but they don't seem to carry it anymore, and I can't find them anywhere. Just be careful, my daughter bit a huge chunk out of the foam d20 we had.

edit: Found them! However, they are only an inch bigger, and they don't include a d6.

Have you tried foam dice sets?

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003IHTZGW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_t1_VrA0Db8WW1VPM. Maybe here. These are foam but are large

Or these

Or look around on here, these guys may have something

jumbo polyhedral dice these might be a little over kill, and I don't trust them to roll fair, but at about 3 inches a piece they should be readable.

We found them at our local gaming store.

Try a Fancy Deck box, nice 4 row Binder, A new Playmat or some Funky Dice. How about Gigantic Dice?

When it comes to hardcore magic players, unless you're getting them that one card they're looking for, maybe sidestep it for non-card items.

These

Does not include shipping but these are way cool!

Been tempted to get a set like this for my little one. He's a bit too destructive still, would try and rip them apart, but maybe someday...

I expected this link.

I agree with this approach, it easier for everyone to remember. I got a big foam d20 in a Loot Crate a while back and use that for inspiration

I actually was looking for them to link a picture and couldn't find them anywhere.

I believe these are what the have currently. Mine are all yellow but they are from Kaplow so maybe the same size/type just different colors.

Sides of dice measure 3" each

There are some dice with larger numbers, and some quite large dice, if you look around.

When I go into decent game shops (not much lately, there's none local any more), they usually have a few dice that look to be about double normal size with large numbers.

Here, for example, are images of oversize (34mm) d20s, that show the kind of thing I've seen regularly in stores:

http://www.dnddice.com/cart/index.php/oversize-d20-s.html

Those are really quite big.

These are a little smaller - about 25mm, which is still pretty large:

http://www.mathartfun.com/shopsite_sc/store/html/PolyDice.html

They're not too expensive and have good contrast.

Amazon's site has a seller jumbo polyhedral dice from koplow (you see koplow dice in most game stores):

http://www.amazon.com/Jumbo-Polyhedral-Assorted-Colors-KOP10827/dp/B002IXM1EK

You can find those dice online in many places. Here's koplow's own catalog page :
http://www.koplowgames.com/page82.html

your local FLGS can probably order them in for you if they don't have them in stock already.

Those, IIRC are about double standard size (but don't forget if you double the dimensions, they weigh 8 times as much).

For really large dice you can go to Learning Resources foam dice:

http://www.amazon.com/Learning-Resources-Jumbo-Foam-Polyhedral/dp/B003IHTZGW/ref=cm_cr_pr_sims_t

Those are designed for classroom demonstrations. They're probably bigger than you want.

Here's a kickstarter that was recently funded, which has less gigantic but still large 2-inch foam dice:

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/miniongames/giant-2-inch-soft-foam-polyhedral-dice

This would avoid the table-damaging weight of overdoing a roll with a big plastic die.

And you can often find specialized dice that are relatively large. Some 'spindown'-type dice are fairly big

-- here's a 55mm (!) d20 that koplow sell:

http://www.koplowgames.com/newitems.html or http://www.koplowgames.com/17970.jpg

-- for d10s, for example, SJG's Munchkin dice are really pretty big. I wouldn't want one to hit me. They have a munchkin-head instead of a 0 but that should pose little problem. They went out of print but you can still find them here and there.

My white one has great contrast. Edit: It looks like they have reprinted them more recently:

http://www.worldofmunchkin.com/leveldice/ (those are expensive, if you shop around you can probably find the old ones much cheaper)



You can also look at improving contrast (choosing lighter colored dice with dark ink or dark dice with light ink, or even re-inking dice in stronger-contrast colors).

Another possibility is that with dice-rolling programs, some of those may be induced to display rolls nice and big, also.
