If this is going to happen I would be in for the new Japanese set of Keycaps, at least 3 sets ( Blue, White and Red).

HaveANiceDay · « **Reply #2 on:** Fri, 03 June 2011, 10:12:40 »

AFAIK there are no retail Topre caps in different colors for the non-JIS layout.
Of course Topre can make them, but the prices are a joke. I guess high quality dye sublimation IS expensive.

I don't suppose I'll see the mythical Red Control key in my lifetime.

I'm not going to destroy my Yellow Keycaps for making white, blue or red ones. That for sure.

I'm still waiting for ClickClack keys. Or the Geekhack keyboard.

Why do people start threads like these that don't know how to organize a group buy?

Oh wait, I did that with the Clear Signature Plastic keys.

Nevermind.

Keep Calm and Carry On.

Great! We just have a volunter willing to help us organize and buy some Nice keycaps. My only intention here is to find out how many guys are willing to buy and right after someone with more group buying experience can take over.

HaveANiceDay · « **Reply #14 on:** Tue, 07 June 2011, 10:20:11 »

I still don't get it. There is no signature plastics equivalent for Topre keycaps. You have to order from Topre directly, and they won't do 20 keycaps for a few dollars.

Mazora · « **Reply #15 on:** Tue, 07 June 2011, 10:26:46 »

omg. IM IN !

I'm a bad soldier too.

A better use of time would be to start posting at the Japanese keyboard forums in an effort to find the supplier of Topre keycaps.

But then, 90% of the Group Buy posts in this subforum end up this way so who am I to talk.

Thanks for your feedback. Do you have any other idea ? I would like to make it happend ;-) . Newbie question, is there any company out there beside topre capable to do this kind of job (low volume)?

noodles256 · « **Reply #17 on:** Wed, 08 June 2011, 01:14:49 »

there is a guy in the alley near the coffee shop i go to that might be able to help

sinis · « **Reply #18 on:** Wed, 08 June 2011, 01:22:52 »

everytime i read coffeeshop i have to think of netherlands. in the usa they really sell coffe there I assume. wikiped tells it at least.

Anyhoo Signature Plastics gave some lame excuse for why they couldn't do Topre. Something about $50,000 metal molds IIRC.

I do know nothing about the plastic mold required, but for such amount of money I will buy my sit in the chair board

I'd also be willing to willing to join in... I'd want a set of green caps though.

HaveANiceDay · « **Reply #26 on:** Fri, 10 June 2011, 20:02:31 »

You've been naughty, all of you! As punishment, NO ONE IS GETTING ANY CUSTOM TOPRE CAPS!

Maybe this one will work.

You are a cruel man, raising their false hopes like that.
