Here's how the dice are shaping up so far:
d1=:' o '
d2=:'o o'
d3=:'o o o'
d4=:'o o o o'
d5=:'o o o o o'
d6=:'o oo oo o'
d=:6 9$d1,d2,d3,d4,d5,d6
dice=:(<"2)3 3$"1 d
dice
5!:2 ;:'d1 d2 d3 d4 d5 d6 d dice'
facerowsrs=: 0 0 0,1 0 0,0 1 0,0 0 1,:1 0 1
facecharsrs=: ' o'
facesrs=: 0 2 0,1 0 3,1 2 3,4 0 4,4 2 4,:4 4 4
dicers=: <"2 facecharsrs {~ facerowsrs {~ facesrs
5!:2 ;:'facerowsrs facecharsrs facesrs dicers'

The following is getting away from the actual rules as of the task but
is perhaps useful nonetheless ...
>From a storage and processing POV, it will be leaner and faster not to
store the dice boxed. The boxing is nice for display purposes though
so that could be made a separate verb.
facerows=: 0 0 0,1 0 0,0 1 0,0 0 1,:1 0 1 NB. row types on faces
facechars=: ' o' NB. chars used to draw faces
faces=: 0 2 0,1 0 3,1 2 3,4 0 4,4 2 4,:4 4 4 NB. define faces as rows
dice=: facechars {~ facerows {~ faces NB. create dice
displayDice=: [: smoutput <"2 NB. display boxed di
throw=: ] {~ [: ? [ $ [: # ] NB. verb to throw dice
toss=: 2 10 throw ] NB. throw 2 dice 10 times
sumThrows=: [: +/ [: ([: +/ ,)"2 'o' = ] NB. sum each throw
fd=: [: /:~ ({. , #)/.~ NB. calc frequency distribution
