The K70 has a non-standard bottom row so while most of the caps will fit you won't get full coverage.

I don't think there is any set out there that will completely fit the K70 other than the caps it comes with.
There are a few now. MaxKeyboards for example offer their keysets with compatible bottom rows.

I just picked up a Corsair K70 RGB with Cherry Browns... any chance these keys would fit this keyboard? :)

JD has a good write up about how to pick out a keyboard here -> http://blog.ctrlalt.io/articles/how-to-choose-the-right-keyboard-for-you

Thanks for the links. I mainly wanted this keyboard for the RGB lighting and to try a different color Cherry switch, so swapping keycaps was not a major concern. I have another Filco and Realforce 87U that I can swap the keys on :)

In any case I'm in for a set just to try, love the color combo too much. Thanks!

Fyi the RealForce has Topre switches, and these keycaps are not compatible.

Unless you purchase the sliders too, and swap those over in the process, which is more complicated than just swapping keycaps.
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Thanks for the info, I'll try these on the Filco first and then see how it looks on the K70 without the matching bottom row.

Sorry if this is a bit late, but I'd also agree with option 3.

Also if it would be possible to purchase multiple sets of (4) R4 windowed keys I'd like to pick up several sets. It's been hard to find windowed keys, and while I can see most people only needing (2), if it were possible to buy more with my set I'd be onboard.

Ordered! I'm going to have to thin out the keycap collection once this comes in. The keycap to keyboard ratio is way out of balance.

If someone doesn't need the 1.5u ctrl and alt caps, let me know!  Already have a 1800 WoB set so don't really want to buy a whole set for 4 keys =/  (also the numpad 2u 0, and vertical 2u +)

This keycap set was an easy skip for me, yet I wish it wasn't so

My problem with all gmk keysets is that they lack the 1.25 CMD keycaps

Generally ctrlalt keycap sets are more respective and thoughtful in this area, yet not this set

IMO, this debut could have been epic with some additional extra keycaps and a more neutral two tone color selection similar to the Dolch (I'm not saying Dolch, yet many similar/pleasing two tone selections are possible)

heres the problem sir

every key in the set has a cost, i dont just mean in production to add to the cost of the set, but this isnt a pre established thing, every single key has been made from scratch, we have to start somewhere, so initially we have to target the most supported layouts, as this grows, more keys can and will be added in the future, but that can only happen if the project is a success, the more people who support this, the more chance their is of things like you are asking for happening, the flip side of that is the more people who sit and wait for these things to happen, the less chance there is of it becoming so

what i would say is this, the initial run is essentially a proof of concept, its the start of things to come, but for this project to be fully realised, it needs support

Site says 7 days left, so you should have a couple of days after the month ends.  If it comes down to the wire I can spot you

i believe jtk will be ready a good bit before retro, but that being said we are happy to hold one until the other is ready and ship together

what i would say, is anyone thinking about combining them, please be aware they wont ship until both gbs are ready, when we let people combine hackd/miami/hyperfuse, and they then decided once one came they wanted to start splitting things, it just becomes a bit of a headache

so in short, yes you can combine, but please be aware one may be later than the toher, so please make sure you are happy to wait before doing so

Is there any chance that we could see some completed sliders before the buy is over? I would like to get in to support this awesome effort, I'd just like to see them working before I do.

itll be cutting it close, i should have pics on hand in the next few days, but they will be available later so no problem if you wanna wait until another time
I'M IN THE PROCESS OF MOVING RIGHT NOW, WILL BE BACK AROUND SOON

I'm wondering on slider color.  Here's hoping purple, pink, turquoise, something fun and unique (but not orange, red, or yellow).

I second pink or purple. The master colours.

Orange would be awesome.

Orange would be an instant deal breaker for me.  You can't photograph it well and most of the time it looks like crap, with a few exceptions.  It's great as a minor accent color, but not something like a full board.

Photograph?  You put keys on them before you take out the camera.....

I am hoping bunny makes them out of the cheapest POM raw material they could find, so probably some milky white natural color, just cause they are functional, not cosmetic...

I think bright toxic/neon green would be cool also but yeah whatever works best is what matters.

Did a little searching and as long as it is a light neutral color, POM seems to be very easily dye-able.  So in that case anyone could have any color they really wanted, well except clear.. but that isn't really a color anyways...  So no reason for fighting in here.  ;D

some links for reference about dying POM

I won't deny I'm a man of strong opinions, but so are many people on here.  Visit any thread and you'll see people speaking out.  I've learned that if opinions aren't stated, and typically stated strongly, they go ignored.  I've also learned that there's usually a fair number of people with similar feelings.  For example, symmetry caps (all of two caps) for 60% layouts.  I've been very vocal about that, alongside other people who have voiced similar desires, and you see more sets with them now.  I'd rather be known as someone willing to voice opinions than many other labels people throw around here.

And I'm putting the money aside for this from sales in classifieds.  I'll be joining too.  Since I'm joining and am buying sliders, shouldn't I have a say in their color?  Or am I only allowed to voice my opinion if it agrees with yours?  If the slider is orange, it is an absolute dealbreaker for me and, as soon as I get them, they will be sold.  There is nothing wrong with vocalizing that now, especially since it's unknown if they'll be done again.  If Bunny wants to make everyone happy, he'll probably go with a grey color or a black or white, but I can still voice hope for others, especially since we've seen how sexy purple sliders are.

Not yellow? :(
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada
