So I've been looking in alternate rules of chess and I've been reading a lot about alternate rules and none standard pieces and it has left me wondering does anyone make Chess sets with not standard pieces?

Thanks,
Stickman

I made a chessboard and chess pieces completely out of Legos. Each square was 2 2-by-4 bricks, and the pieces were simple, with pawns just simple 2-by-2 pieces with a small dot on top, rooks were circle pieces with some decoration, knights were horses on one side, and actual knights on the other, Bishops were the same as rooks, but with those pointy Wizard hats and heads, and the Queen and king were Unique to each side, adorned with the finest Lego decorations I could find (Crowns, jewels, and even some weapons)
