[IC] GMK Olivetti - R.I.P(canceled)

[jonathanyu]

How many of you will be interested in Olivetti set?
Basically just like the set that sold by Originative in the past.


Included:
Winkey Set
Winkey less modifier
ISO keys
1.75x shift
~`, |\ in modifiers color
Extra spacebar

Depend on interest:
Blue on white F5-F8
A profile bottom row
Comparison of A profile and B profile:

More

The one on the right hand side is A profile, the one on the left hand side is B profile

I don't have the original Olivetti doubleshot, so I can't compare the original Olivetti doubleshot and the GMK Olivetti doubleshot.  But the color between the GMK Olivetti doubleshot and the original Olivetti PBT is quite different.  Which one do you guys like better?  (I am not sure GMK have the original one's color or not)
GMK color will be V4 on L9 for the alpha keys, and V4 on U9 for the modifiers keys.
Original color will be the color of original doubleshot.

Sorry for the potatoes, I don't have a nice camera so I took these potatoes with my phone

And do you guys want windowed Caps Lock, Scroll Lock, and Num Lock?

[feizor]

Yes!!!

[HoffmanMyster]

Any interested in this?

Me!  Is someone else planning it, though?  I thought I heard rumours, but maybe I'm going crazy.

[bazh]

please slow down with all the GMK ****


my wallet can't take it

[scubaste]

I'm still bummed I missed out on the GMK Dolch, I'm not missing out on this. Count me in.

Poor word choice!!    )

I have this idea for few months, but I have never heard someone else is planning it

I didn't mean to accuse!  I was just hoping that we wouldn't have conflicting GBs being planned.   

[Lastpilot]

I never say no to more GMK blue things. 

[bazh]

if you're planning a blue mods pack to go along with the traditional white/beige, I'm all over it, I'm still dreaming about GMK Raindrop everyday

This, so much.  I've always wanted a GMK Olivetti but seriously...we need to start spacing these buys out.  This is getting painful.

I'm still wondering whether to go for feng's Cyan or wait for Ivan's Inverted Beige

[Wildcard]

As long as the tab key looks better, then I'm definitely in.

[Flamingchook]

Well I'd definitely be in. I've got a  classifieds thread looking for a set right now.

Also white on blue mods would be incredible!

[Orca]

imma in~ 

original~

[naasfu]

Definitely yes, please!

Does anyone have any pics of boards with the PBT version?  I think I prefer the lighter Originative GMK version, but it would be great to see some pics of these sets on boards for comparison.

[jonathanyu]

Definitely yes, please!

This is the PBT version.

[ComradeSniper]

Totally in. I'd love a short right shift and 1x \| key for my Viper also.

[bazh]

and also the CTRL keys

1x \| is in R3?

[jonathanyu]

and also the CTRL keys

And Alt Gr right?

Thanks!  I'm digging the beige of the GMK Originative mods much more than the normal grey PBT mods, and I also prefer GMK Originative's higher contrast difference between the alphas and mods.

[tjweir]

Interested.

A white on blue Esc and Enter would be rad.

[TBone]

Would there be any color packs? Like inverted mods or something? That would be so awesome.

[pichu23]

Another GMK...... My wallet... halp 

[jonathanyu]

Something like raindrop mods?

[Puddsy]

I don't think the same way. I prefer Olivetti as nothing more than blue on white. If you do weird color stuff to it, I start to hate it.

[yicaoyimu]

If this happens, I'm in for at least two sets. Also, what white color are you planning using for this set? The originative set uses a white color with colder tone while the classic beige set is a warmer milky white. I prefer the milky white personally.

I don't think the color's been decided yet.  Both of those options are in the IC form so you can choose what you want or enter another color option, I believe.

[phoenix1234]

Yes, definitely Yes. I may need 2 sets.

I know I'm probably in the minority but I am so sick of seeing Dolch!

I see. I need to read OP more carefully.

For the "GMK color", alpha keys would be V4 on L9, modifier keys would be V4 on U9
And I haven't decided the color for the "original color" yet

[3Love]

I think I have waited too long time. Is that true?

[HoffmanMyster]

I don't think the same way. I prefer Olivetti as nothing more than blue on white. If you do weird color stuff to it, I start to hate it.

I prefer more options like Raindrop had, but I also want the buy to succeed, and I think the best way for that to happen is for minimal fragmentation.  If we make it real simple with one set we should have much better luck getting it to production.

Does anyone know if GMK charges significantly less for blank keycaps?  I'm just curious how "low you can go" on a set of 60%/87 blanks.

[Zeal]

I had some plans on starting a GMK buy early next year and Olivetti was on the list of possible colour combos with both old and new W8 logos. Didn't want to start it late in the year since I know Christmas season is when everyone gets wallethacked. Didn't start anything yet, so no worries.

Does anyone know if GMK charges significantly less for blank keycaps?  I'm just curious how "low you can go" on a set of 60%/87 blanks.

Blanks & windowed keys have a minimum MOQ of 400 each to be produced. Don't ask me why for blanks, but that's how it is.

Well that's silly!  But to my original question is there a big price decrease on blanks?

[naasfu]

And dumb question:  If we want this set to match other mod kits such as from the purple and CMYW GBs, we should vote No for "A Profile" for Question #2, right?

Correct.

That's right , purple amd CMYW mods have B profile bottom row

[naasfu]

Great.  Thanks, guys.  I've filled out the form.

Please vote no on Proposition "A", haha.

[feizor]

space bars, we need lots of space bars!

[naasfu]

space bars, we need lots of space bars!

Yeah, we don't need to see people putting tape on their spacebars.  Ugh, terrible.

Thanks for the reminder.    I almost forgot that

[bianco]

interested. submitted form.
hopefully, this gmk gb will have a symmetrical option for the ~` and |\ keys having the same color as the modifiers.

[Sent]

Every single time I join a GB now...I always order far more space bars than I'll ever need.  I didn't before and have regretted it forever.  Now, I'm paranoid as ****. )

[ComradeSniper]

Totally in. I'd love a short right shift and 1x \| key for my Viper also.

1x \| is in R3?

It'd be on the number row, so that's R1 I think?

[Den441]

I voted for simple modifiers, I think that and a color pack would be enough to differentiate it from past replica Olivetti sets. If that happens, I might be onboard.
