no orange/yellow sorry

but I may run a bonus pack (not from MD)

Bonus pack is fine by me, do you want to run that parallel to the MD buy or afterwards?

Can you disclose the prices for the sets ? And how they will be organized ? I guess with MD we can not have small kits like on PMK. Not that I care much, but I'm curious, I like to plan ahead  :cool:

the kits are like I presented them here. probably grouped by common/international/extra for easy access. I don't know yet. I believe the MOQ will be 50, but that depends on MD. I can't show you the price list yet, but they are very close to what we had in round 1 and something lower than that for high tiers (150).

Hey Matt3o, would you consider making the numpad have the additional secondary function labels like many DCS kits?

Right now AFAIK there has never been a DSA numeric set that actually has those labels (arrows, page up etc) because SP didn't have the DS moulds with them. Given this set is dye-sub and that isn't a limiting factor.

Would be awesome for the TK keyboards and right now DSA users have no other choice but number-only pads.

So, Massdrop today added a listing for 4 doubleshot ABS sets, including black on white, Olivette, Dolch, and something called "Granite."  Go figure.

On top of that they also have a listing for "Doubleshot ABS Sculpted Keycaps". I hope interest for this set isn't going to be spread too thin.

Those are Tai Hao sets, and I doubt it will affect Granite considering the Tai Hao GB is in production now.

Hi guys,

Is this set going to be compatible with Filco Majestouch 2 and/or CM storm Quickfire XT?
Thanks in advance for your answers.

Does the blank pack have a 1.75 in it?

I usually swap caps lock and left control or just map both to control, would rather either blank them or or swap the label.

The text pro modifier has a 1.75 control in it in, but just measuring whats shown in the blank pack I don't see a 1.75 blank.

The image is wrong. I'll have them update it but I believe we have to wait tomorrow.

I believe they count all the sets sold (not just the common kits), but I have to check with massdrop.

I'm pretty certain it's number of sets, not buyers. Hopefully they can add another price drop? I'm having trouble deciding between text and icon modifiers because I want both but it's very costly.

What situation is the specialty kit for?

confirmed with MD that that is the number of kits sets, not buyers.

I'm also trying to add an additional price drop.

The specialty kit is for the JD40 (I seem to recall), the Filco Minila and few others.

I would go icon. They are really unique to this set. The specialty kit is for things like the JD40.

Just to make sure - I have to add the common kit on checkout, correct?

Ohh I see now, everything is based off the base "29.99" price. Text Pro is $25 so, -5 from the base set. That took a second to realize.

its crazy - I started with a counter showing 304 - and 20 minutes later it is 398 ....   :eek:


I think I buy a full set for my son as well - so he has something solid when he grows up he is 4 now  :thumb:

QUESTION - the spacebar is standard 6,25 units long right? if so why is there another 6.25 extra available?
