Great idea , while the new season is coming soon.

I like the color of Alphas in the second picutre above. Maybe you could make the color of font for the background of Modifiers ,and the color of background for the font of Modifiers. ;)

That's okay... they are working on like 5 spinoffs for HBO.

I for one am only interested in SP. I could deal with Back Space, but between back space. shif t and the mismatched serif's on f1/f10-12, I just can't deal. That said, I also don't think there would be anything wrong with running it both ways.

Now if maxkeys can just fix their molds, then I'm fine with that :D

Just think of it as getting old school SP SA caps before they fixed that stuff.

Oh? This seems intriguing.
I am still undecided about whether or not I completely support Maxkey's way of doing things.
Still, them fixing their molds is good, gonna wait and see if they actually turn out decent.

that was my first plan but a lot of people from r/mk told me to change it because it might be hard to read in reality. It could've been a nice idea tho. :(

We've heard "they're gonna fix the kerning" since March and several sets that were supposedly going to be fixed still had the old kerning, so I wouldn't necessarily count on it.

I could be interested in a maxkeys set of this. Of the two in the OP, I prefer the less greenish bottom set. Using the Night King picture as a reference, have you considered pulling the color of his eyes for the legends (alpha and mod) using something like BFK or BOH?

Maxkeys supposedly fixed all of the inconsistent stock molds with the Superhero set (and one other which escapes me).

I would hold the manufacturer decision until the production samples of Superhero arrive.

I totally agree. A lot has been said about the fixed molds but without the finished product nothing is certain. That's why I didn't join the Superhero group buy because I was afraid they were just lying (and I love Batman).

Seeing is believing.

It'd be probably maxkey. Still waiting for the release of lime, superhero, and ashen R2 to confirm the fixes they've made. I mean, if the kerning issues are already fixed why not maxkey. Cheaper and faster alternative. but if you have some concerns regarding this. please let me know

If you can add enough to fit in 40%s or a hackjob'd planck layout it'd be nice too lol

Opinion taken. Do you think any other color can match the primary color way? just added the blue one to account night king's eyes but yes i agree, it doesn't match at all. maybe i just can use the blue color for some novelty legends maybe? still working on things regarding this.

Hmm. I'd definitely prefer legends overall.

Having a kit like the Calm Depths Planck kit would be nice as long as its feasible. I'm no group buy expert tho idk if that will be hard without jacking up the price or causing issues

I think that will jack up the price real high bec rn the calm depth price is at 100+ usd. but let's see what we can do. I will coordinate with zfrontier so they can give me an idea if i can make a separate kit just for the planck kit

Nice to know :) 
Oh for the emblem i really didn't noticed it, i still don't like it but it make sense now.  Well my suggestion is the fire sword. Also not sure if Maxkey can do novelties for keys bigger than 1u, but if they could you can do surely something nice for the enter, still i'm thinking about dragons here.

In general i think that on any key a nice dragon logo could be cool, you can take inspiration by googling "dragon logo", there are some nice things around: 

(http://i.imgur.com/IRwyC6x.jpg) 

Also i would suggest to slightly rework the dragon glass, It seems more like a kitchen knife :D   You can even turn that into Jon Valyrian sword

...Do you think any other color can match the primary color way?

I've been a bit preoccupied with other things today, but looking at this again I think one of the main problems with the red and blue you have in your mock ups is that they are too saturated in those images and quite jarring.

I had a short play around with the colorize tools. These aren't anywhere near perfect, but with some tweaking you can definitely find colors that will work. How important is it to directly reference the theme? e.g. blue eyes, snow, obsidian etc? If you allow yourself more freedom it will be easier.

...Do you think any other color can match the primary color way?

I've been a bit preoccupied with other things today, but looking at this again I think one of the main problems with the red and blue you have in your mock ups is that they are too saturated in those images and quite jarring.

I had a short play around with the colorize tools. These aren't anywhere near perfect, but with some tweaking you can definitely find colors that will work. How important is it to directly reference the theme? e.g. blue eyes, snow, obsidian etc? If you allow yourself more freedom it will be easier.

...im kinda decided on not including some...

I wouldn't disagree with that decision. There's no rule that says you must have accents, so if it really doesn't suit the theme then why try to force it?

by complicating things i mean the pricing bec we currently have 10 novelties already and adding another set might jack the price. maybe I can just make a poll about this included in the IC form. Bec I personally like the effect made by the ones u made.

someone from reddit (nineleveno) suggested this:

Alternatively, if possible, maybe a separate color kit? Keep the base kit as it is in the mockup on here, then the color kit could be a second set of 10:
Esc x2 (obsidian and blue)
Return x2 (obsidian and blue)
Numpad Return x2 (obisidian and blue)
Arrow cluster (obsidian OR blue)

highly considering thissss

Got it! But i think you should add the ice spear key, and how about The Wall for return or backspace key? and i think the symbols with minimal style and thinner borderline is better (exp: night king is the eyes and crow instead of full face  ^-^ ^-^, same as three eyes raven is only head with three eyes, no need full body :D
The colorway is very sexy but i think the noveltiles need improve. Anyway, I'm in  :p :p :p :p
and many minilar fan will be happy if you add minilar kit :D
Sorry for late comment  :-X :-X :-X

Still no reply from zfrontier so far. I think they're still waiting for maxkey's response regarding the pricing of the set also if the novelties are good for tooling. Will update everyone as soon as they replied. Also, so far 49 people have filled out the IC form since i posted it 9 hours ago.

Recently got a reply from zfrontier. They're still waiting for maxkey's quote of the base kit + novelties. They're still not answering some of my questions like if an add on planck+hhkb+45% comp kit would be possible. Will update asap if they reply.

Maxkeys are the ones who make the keys, OP is choosing zFrontier to proxy the orders. The reason I don't like zFrontier is because their "customer service" is atrocious. They don't seem to care about this community.

they're doing good so far. They tend to make things cheaper and also they have free shipping through dhl if ur order goes higher than a hundred dollars. if ever you will encounter some problems regarding this, i will do my best to help u and make things easier for all of us. :)

I definitely know what is Maxkey and what is zFrontier.   
For the customer service, you might be a bit wrong on this, they are fixing every problem they have with the international shop, they changed their policy to satisfy the customers, afaik they fixed every problem.  I guess your are referring to the double 5-5 of the GMK Ocean Dolch that was fixed by zF, they had to change their policy but they did so.  If you are referring to other, feel free to write it. 

For the ''WHY" it is pretty simple, since OP can't/won't run the GB directly he has to go for a vendor. zF is the only Vendor that make this easy. Unless a good vendor will jump in and say "hey OP I will run the GB for you", thing that probably will not happen, zf is the only one safe bet here.   

Without even talking about Maxkey MOQ, usually should be around 200 orders. Unless this set will be very popular, it is hard to reach even 150 orders with EU/US shops and there aren't many shops that can buy all the extras, while zF can do it. Also, with him it is pretty easy to reach the MOQ since he can sell directly worldwide (no proxy, china included, etc..)

Still no idea m8. ZF said they will give me updates regarding the revision of the novelties today. They're still not answering me regarding the compatibility and accent kits. But i guess after that they can start the GB already. last thing to do after being approved is getting renders. Might get thesiscamper to do my renders but prices are really steep for me coz i recently purchased a new board.

Rofl why,  you just dropped the ''You know nothing, Jon Snow '' randomly  :thinking:   


Yeah the person running the GB usually seeks for someone to run it if he can't, so why OP should bother, having multiple NO by vendors if zF that is a good vendor is already ok, and mainly is a INTERNATIONAL vendor (so OP doesn't need 2+ proxy). 

I do believe you can have any opinion you want, i mean if you say ''I don't like X" i'm fine with this, i'm not discussing this, i'm just answering you because you wrote:

On a side note, whatever if you want to skip a set that you like because of the picked vendor, well i don't understand you but feel free to do so :D  (yeah as SiegeTowers said, i was trying to convince you to join the GB)

._. I don't understand why people take things so personal here. I said this is going through zFrontier and you said would you rather wait a year like if I had mentioned to take this set through SP. zFrontier have also tried to run sets without asking the original "designer" and try to profit off of it and they had a super lame excuse. As for you not understanding why I won't support it, it's called morals. Same reason why people don't want to get in on CtrAlt gb's or support originative. There's always excuses for silly things that happen. Anyways, didn't mean to strike offense on you or the op here. It's cool if you like zFrontier, but was there really a need to take it all the way there? Lol. Regardless of this silly post of my little opinion, gl to this gb. I'll still be following cause the set is nice and can't wait to see the pics. Hopefully the date is soon so this goes out into the wild.

Just got word from ZF. All of the novelties are now approved. Although the planck kit will not make the final cut. Now I'm gonna ask you guys, Would you want us to copy the compatibility of MAxkey calmdepths? or just go as far as Lime's compatibility? let me know because quotes will be coming out soon. ;)

Lime since we have novelties too.  It will be too expensive with the Calm Depths kit since we have to add novelties.  Really no reason to have another $120+ kit via maxkey, better go for as cheap as possible imho  ;D

I like Calm Depths for the 1.5u R2 Backspace.

Heavens, this looks amazing. I prefer accents that match the alpha legends, hence complementing rather than contrasting the core colourway, but the kit is amazing without a third main colour thrown into the mix. Good luck - will be in fo sho!  :thumb:

Good to know! thank you for that. I actually tried doing that but it looks kinda awkward so i just tried to account Night King's eyes and the dragon glass.

Why have a 'META' key yet leave the 'MENU' as it is?
MaxKeys already have the molds for META and SUPER on 1.25u and 1u, use them!
As it stands, this will not fit on either my Poker II or my TADA68, without having some kind of windows keys or novelty keys, which is a shame because it looks great.

My thoughts on the novelties are; Dragon glass knife looks good, dragon eye looks good (maybe needs to look more evil though?), "Winter is here" is awesome, and we need a "winter is coming" to go with that.

I know the set is "Night King" so you've made novelties only surrounding him, but I really feel like the set would benefit and become way bigger of a GB if you had the 4 main houses sigils in there and maybe a few other things from the series like the hand sigil and such.

I made a few suggestions today, some are simple and some are more advanced. I don't have any experience with making this for keysets, so I don't know how complicated they can be. I hope you'll find something you like, and if there's something you want to use but need some corrections please let me know.

I don't know if OP can use houses sigils.  On a side note, I would really like a lot houses (especially Targaryen and Stark). 
Also not sure if some of these novelties can actually be made, for example the Targaryen would be hard i guess.

Ah okay, no problem. What do you think about raven 2.1? I think it looks pretty dope.

The baratheon and 1+2 and Targarian 1 are not copyrighted from the show so they are usable if you want.

Here's a take on Lannister and Stark without using the official sigil:
