[IC] A round 2 novelty key group buy UPDATE W/Keycap list!

[swagpiratex]

I would be down GF might be down too, pending designs, colors and pricing.

[Lu_e]

Dunno if this is the right place but;

Ragnarok red on black center-stem stepped caps lock would be sexy... please show interest if you think so too!

[Makeo]

Count me in! Can never have too many caps 

[YoungMichael88]

I think a red on sky blue biohazard cap would be awesome!  Throw it on a Frankenstein board!  Or on an all black board. Black goes with everything!  It just looks so good in your avatar. Also that color might go well with the crystal meth caps from the Br/Ba buy and fits the "chemical" theme. Maybe I'm just crazy!

[Zokudu]

I would be interested.

[kmiller8]

I would be interested specifically in Awesome Face and Look of Dissaproval keys in different colors. IMO the black on red LOD could definately be improved, and maybe a yellow on black awesome face.

And of course any other randomly done keys you guys can come up with

Besides all the nice ideas in this threat, did I just hear Awesome Face in different colors? I'd be down for that!!!! (Probably I would be also in for most of the other ideas mentioned here!)

Btw, has there been a white on red Lotus-cap yet, e.g. to go with Red Alert??

[Zos]

I'd be interested in a Jolly Roger as well. But spice it up with a black key on black engraving 

Super subtle!

Or a Half-Life lambda!

[phetto]

We've done that. It gets significantly more expensive though. Unless you've got something specific in mind?

I have nothing in mind, im no designer ;]

[suprsmo]

In for some more sc2 caps, but I know that's not going to happen.

I'll be selling some dyesub SC2 keys in the Imsto GB I think

Uhmmm MLP caps?

I'll get the Imsto GB up soon I promise. 2 midterms on wednesday, so probably asap after that. iMav finally accepted my $350 donation so I'll get my forum up whenever I have a few hours to spare.

To be clear though, we can do some dyesub keys in this group buy, but it should be mostly doubleshots. At the moment I'm thinking:

Red on white Biohazard from my avatar
Awesome Face
LOD
Jolly Roger (On actual black this time so it matches)  <-----------This!
Escaping Keyboard Guy
Triforce
... and I have to get to class but a bunch more I can't remember off of the top of my head. I kinda want to do a dyesubbed Skyrim key but that might have to be in the imsto gb too.

Nice one Rag. I'd def be keen for some real black jolly's!

[suprsmo]

I mentioned this before somewhere on the infamous Round4 thread but I'm interested in a "SHOUT" cap in replacement of the CapsLock key.  I know there were interest for this from other users so I'm sure we can drum up interest for this again.

I would buy that  )

Make it stepped and id buy a few !

[cgbuen]

Definitely still excited for the Bowser flag and Jolly Roger mods! Hope this can get started up soon!

[phetto]

is black with grey legend doubleshot doable? would look sick imo.

[cgbuen]

Came up with a quick idea after reading the RGBYO IC where they're thinking of rotating colors:

Blank SP DCS profile 1.25x modifiers in RA, BDH, and YBP. Throw in shift keys of different lengths in VCM and then people can mix and match blank "custom" RGBY sets (i.e. the different colors can go to any mod key) to go along with cherry profile otaku keysets.

Didn't think it would be too appropriate to suggest this in danielucf/hashbaz's upcoming RGBYO GB, where they're going to be doubleshots for sure. Not sure if it's a reasonable idea at all actually, but I just wanted to chime in with this thought.

[esoomenona]

Rag, do you stay away from copyrighted images in particular for these?

[rainbowshy]

Uhmmm MLP caps?

thisss
all the ponies

[tcextreme]

Always interested in some novelty packs!

[i488]

hi newb here.
have no idea abt the old designs. mind putting up some pix?

[nereme]

I would be up for some novelty cap

[dirge]

Suggestions:
Black on Orange Cherry font Esc key

I'd like this but why stop, do the entire function row in the same.  Really want someone to do a vintage cherry row

[kravlin]

Interested in some of these depending on what happens. Def interested in the bowser flag, as well as jolly Rodger.

[Ragnorock]

hi newb here.

Working on it, should be up sometime today.

[Ragnorock]

Okay, so because of the forum reset, I'm having trouble finding stock images of the old novelty keys. I did do a search through some other old threads, but I don't want to jack images without permission. If anyone has some pictures of the following, it'd be great:

Lotus
Guy escaping with keyboard
Keyboard

If anyone wants those keys.


Here's some of the ones I bought last time around. Don't think we'll do any flag keys this time, they usually get really low counts.



Anyways, here's my updated list of keys I want to run:
Biohazard: (both modifier and Esc keys)
- Red on White (matching Red Alert)
- Blue on Black (Maybe?) It would go with my upcoming doubleshot group buy
- White on Red (matching the abundant red mod sets)

Jolly Roger: Modifier only
-white on black
-black on white
-Red on White

Triforce: Esc and Mod
- Gold on Green ofc
- There is no good purple available from SP, so the gold on purple suggestion is out, but I'm open to others

Awesome Face:
White on Red
Black on Red (this for sure, its new)
Black on Yellow? (I don't particularly want to do the same colors, so throw em up, I'm open to whatever)

LOD:
- Black on Red
- Red on Black
- Willing to do colors that match keysets done by GH, CCnG etc, as well as anything else that looks sick.

Nuke I'll pass on because we just had the hazard group buy.

Escaping Keyboard Guy:
- White on Red
- Black on Red

PANIC:
Colors undecided

ANY KEY:
Colors undecided

Socially Awkward Penguin: (Have .svg)
-Black on White



Bowser Flag: (Need .Svg, might make my own if I have to)
- Black on white lets us do the flag
- White on black gives us just a bowser key

Fox key (You'll know what its from)
- White on Black or Grey on Black
- Orange on Black




If you guys want to do a particular GH key I'll lump that in with this and donate the proceeds to GH as usual. Apparently the $350 I sent em wasn't near enough! Give me a color combo!


Anything I missed? Thats a lot of keys! Depending on how many we end up with, I'm planning on starting the group buy at the 50/100 price tier, as I'll just contribute and buy 100 of each to lower prices and have some/lots of extras to sell. That said, if a key doesn't get a lot of orders even at a great price break, I'll drop it and save myself the effort.

[iArson]

omg fox key 

[Alessandro]

Nice selection! Needs Yugioh dyesubs though, I've restored my nostalgia in that game!

[MadScientist46]

Personally, I'd go totally crazy over white/black on orange awesomefaces!
But even more I love your suggestion to take a color combination to fit RA for Jolly Rogers and Biohazards. I guess they will make a nice addition to this (already very sexy) keyset!

[Ragnorock]

Yeah, I was also thinking of making a version of the JR key to match the Ragnarok set, since that was the original "biohazard end of the world keyset" but I started getting a little crazy with the offered color combos, most of them will end up with 2 colors going forward, unless there is unusually high demand for all 3.

Thanks for letting me use your images for the panic and any key though, OP updated.

@ Allesandro, trying to stay away from Dyesubs for this group buy, otherwise I would have included a bunch of the meme keys too. Also no offense, but Yugioh? MTG all the way.

[Acetrak]

Are colors set for the most part? I'd love to have the blue versions of some of these keys but I might be a minority

Bear in mind I'm 15 now, and to be fair, back then, 4Kids did one awesome job with it!

No they aren't set yet, what did you have in mind?

Fair enough, I remember when I was in middle school playing lots of MTG and YuGiOh came out. Suddenly hordes of kids everywhere and we had to accommodate them, which probably kicked off my elitist tendencies.

[pasph]

Also no offense, but Yugioh? MTG all the way.

Want to tell it to my 8 old son?
Try it

If he watches 5DS I'm going to have a tendancy not to like you. Get him watching classic Yugioh!


Back on topic! I'd seriously be in for as many new awesomefaces as possible!

[Acetrak]

I was thinking that some blue on white and/or white on blue would look pretty nice with the biohazard and Jolly Roger keys

[danielucf]

I know your old avatar picture was red on white Ragnorock, but it looked red on light blue. I still really think a red on light blue bio-hazard would be amazing. Also any of this you want to make that would match the toxic set would be pretty badass too.

[Lu_e]

ooo you're doing them in black now? hmmm....

Well here ya go; (or do you need an svg thingy?)

[SmallFry]

Any of these besides the Jolly Roger for the bottom row?

[Ragnorock]

The triforce mods, or anyones I list mod next to would be. If you have suggestions for ones you'd want share em!

[hashbaz]

I'm pretty much over novelty keys, but I'd be in for a Socially Awkward Penguin.  Love it.

Regarding including a GH key: donations/fundraisers are always appreciated, but make sure the admins give the OK beforehand.  Ming et al. are keeping a much closer eye on the production of "official" GH-branded stuff than they used to.

[snoopy]

I'm interested.

Some keys in classic cherry style would be cool (black on one of that cherry-greys)

[Ragnorock]

Ok, good to know, thanks for the info!

[Bim Gao]

Fox key orange on black, I'm in.
How about paw key, white on orange? I missed that

[Sifo]

I just want more blue keys

[Acetrak]

I just want more blue keys

I'm with you there brotha

[Ragnorock]

We can do paw key. Forgot about that. Need the .svg though.

[Sai]

i want the japan mod key though   
is it in the GB?

[Ragnorock]

I could put it in, but drop it if we don't get very many orders. There weren't many last time. We've already got a bunch of keys here, so I dunno. I'd sell you mine, but I liek dem. Actually rocking them right now.
