Fingers crossed for an update soon. Really looking forward to this one. Would be a shame if it doesn't make MOQ.

Closing on Monday, we are now at 400 Base Kits with extras. Looking good! One final push to get it to 425 hopefully  :thumb:

Will it still be made if it's at least close to moq (ie 425 base kits)? Really looking forward to this set.

Should be around that time, yes. Both colors of the set are Stock, so there is no possible color matching holdup.

Extras are usually sold on the vendor's websites after the GB units have shipped to the GB participants.

Kono store posted about ASCII : GMK gave us an estimated transit date of May 6th! It will ship to customers soon after the warehouse is back in order.

But there is no plan posted about ASCII except Kono store. I am not sure if this is real.

I’ve looked at that set but this has a uniform color which I would prefer.

Have there been any updates regarding the shipping date? Last update from Kono's website says they originally estimated a ship date of May 6th. Just curious, as I'm sure covid-19 is delaying shipping dates.
