Is there an estimated ship date? Couldn't find one anywhere on the site.
Can we get more renders of the full board with all the colors? The half renders are making it hard to visualize the whole thing.Thanks!
Love the design....but split back space is going to be a pain in the arse to deal with.
I'd be in for a Tank if they'd offer it without split backspace. I emailed Rama to ask about this, and they said no.
Pardon my extreme ignorance, but do I just buy this and a bunch of cherry switches/keycaps and I'm good to go?
I'm considering picking one up, but could someone explain what a split backspace is? I saw it in the comments and I'm new into this keyboard community.
And I'll probably take it. HAZE (GOLD / DEEP PURPLE) version. It will be good to look in a pair with the M60-A(LAKE).

Can anyone confirm the switches are indeed south facing? It looks like they are in some of the rendered pictures, but wanted to make sure that's how they actually are oriented.

1k for a tank... I wonder how much it costs to manufacture.

I wonder how much it costs to manufacture.Incredibly expensive Brass is pretty tough to machine and material cost / moving the beast is a taskQuote from: vonswoopington on Tue, 02 October 2018, 12:49:30Can we get more renders of the full board with all the colors? The half renders are making it hard to visualize the whole thing.Thanks!Definitely! Will be doing various set renders like we did for the M60-A ---Also have a prototype of Haze / Race arriving in a few weeks, will have video material up when it arrives
I really like this keyboard but as for the split backspace - if I want to go with an aftermarket keycap set (say GMK), I don't see that they manufacture a backspace in that smaller size? Am I missing something? Or what is the workaround?

Am I missing something? Or what is the workaround?The typical split backspace layout moves backspace down one row to where the backslash/pipe key is on a standard keyboard. Most modern GMK sets include a 1.5u R2 backspace key for this purpose. Then on the top row where backspace would be, you can have the backslash/pipe key and, depending on preference, the tilde key or perhaps Delete. Again, most modern GMK sets have a 1u R1 backslash/pipe key to support this layout.I was a skeptic but after trying it there's no going back. Having to move your hand slightly less to hit backspace is completely logical - after all, it's probably a very small percentage of users that use backslash/pipe more often than they use backspace.If you really want a 1u R1 backspace keycap, you'll often find it in any keyset that has a Planck kit or similar.
Is this new? Or somehow I missed it yesterday or at launch? Now there is no reason for me not to buy at least 1. https://ramaworks.store/products/koyu-base-extraBut if this is available for purchase, why can't we pick the top/bottom combination?
Oh yes, KingRAMA, I have been drooling over your Koyu for a long time... what would it take to add a reversed Haze option? I guess no opening that can of worms?
Very clean, my guy.
Will there be a pcb layout like m65??

Yes, sorry! it is new, if you would like it added, just reply to your order confirmation email with the base you would like Due to the reasons listed above, logistically it becomes too much of a challenge to create custom combinations unique to individual orders in the way that we package our products. However, I do really suggest to swap bases with other users to get the combinations you want

However, I do really suggest to swap bases with other users to get the combinations you want Depending on how many Tank/Tank Lite orders you get, would you consider adding the Tank or Tank Lite bottom as an option for addition bottom? Or at least the Tank Lite alum bottom? I am assuming Tank Lite's alum bottom gets the same mirror polish and PVD treatment based on the description. I'd love a subtle mirror finish in the back and bottom. They don't need to be exlusive to the Tank models, the tops already are. BTW, is the mirror finish fingerprints resistant? Or am I spending a $1000 to be its slave polisher? JK, if I bought the Tank, it will be for eyes only.
