[GB] JTK Red Riot and JTK Yolch [YOLCH 100% SHIPPED, RED RIOT SHIPPING]

[dubious]

Mine finally came in today, chucked it on my GH60 for now with Vintage Blacks in a Red Case with a TH esc key. Looks and feels pretty nice. Just had to put tape on the stabs on the Enter key.

[Mearaz]

Just got my red riot and its looks great but my Enter keycap has some issues, the stems are scratching against the stabilizers. Anyone else experience this with theirs?

They might not be sitting on there right.  Make sure you push them down all the way on both sides.  Mine made a popping sound.  If you know they are on all the way, make sure one side isn't lifting off when you press the key.  Some people have needed to add plastic wrap or tape between the stabilizer cruciform and the keycap stem to tighten the fit.

Same. Tested the same stabilizer with gmk, epbt, cherry. Only the jtk enter makes problems.

I tested it with my other stablizers and it has the same problem. If I use my GMK keycap, it has no issue. It might be an issue with the spacing of the stems because it wobbles.

I think Puddsy said in another thread that it's a problem due to the JTK molds -- not entirely sure though

[pixelpusher]

So, mine did that too, but then I pressed down hard on the right side, where the left popped off.  But the right side made a snap.  Then I did the same thing on the left side.  Then I put it on again and it worked.  Weird, but it fixed the issue for me.

is your stab wire still inserted into the stab?

[NitPik]

yea i dont know about you guys but pressing down until i hear a snap or pop is not ideal whatsoever

Good question.  It came out once but I fixed it. Haven’t checked recently

Well, they look awesome. It’s kinda ideal

that just reminds me of when i did something similar with my mira and gmk soware and that snap was my stab wire popping out

[Puddsy]

still waiting on status of extras (and also my sets)

[NitPik]

[PaultheSloth]

[dwarflemur]

I haven't had a chance to get a nice pic yet but red riot is lookin hella fresh

[Puddsy]

my last contact with zf was 3/3

and so my patience will be tested again

[LightningXI]

Is this why they're not shipping my TA 90 set? Because I ordered it a while back, and everybody else got it

Emailed a few times now.  )

If anyone has an open line of contact with Alex at ZF, please tell him to email me back. Thanks.

I hope they didn't sell yours on the Chinese market

buddha of jtk just emailed me to say he talked to them, so i should get an email soon

[Puddsy]

My sets have been shipped to me. Thanks to everyone who helped.

[nasp]

No we just have to wonder if ZFrontier is ever going to list them for sale on their international site.

[pixelpusher]

red riot is simply an amazing set.  Every day I look at it in admiration. The color looks so awesome in the gray case I have it in.  The texture on the caps looks and feels better than any other abs set I've used.  I wish we could have more blank sets from JTK. 

[Puddsy]

dreams really do come true

if i hear about extras i'll let y'all know

my enter keys have that weird issue but i just tape tricked the holes that match up with the stabs and that solved it

[Rogue_Jellybean]

Got my new custom mousemat in today to match with the set (:

That's a somewhat unusual use for a homing bump, but your profiles all look correctly arranged so I'm curious as to its purpose

[nasp]

So did ZFrontier end up keeping the extras for themselves??

My set came scrambled even in the tray which was super annoying and it was the only key with that profile I could find at the time. It kinda grew on me and now I don’t have the heart to get rid of it.

weird, both of my sets came in all lined up

[typischt]

This might diminish my chances to get a set myself, but I like you guys and also want to be a counter voice to the rumour that zfrontier sold all the extras at the chinese market.

I just received this email from alex from zfrontier (after asking for Red Riot extras):

Haha, that is strange.

But it‘s imo also how communication on zfrontier often works (i.e. Kira GB): You don‘t hear anything official and then someone who sent them an email informs all others. I‘m guessing that he / they saw the email and quickly spontaneously decided to give a short answer.

If you're looking for the extras from Zfrontier, they just listed them on their web site a few minutes ago.  Here's Yolch:

and here's Red Riot (yes, the url looks odd, but it really does pull up Red Riot):
