I happened to be in China for a while, wondering if anyone is interested in purchasing these MKC Titanium StarCraft keycaps. Comes in original titanium color, blue, purple, red, or gold. They don't have any backlit compatible Protoss keys as far as I know.

If so, please answer this poll for which ones you prefer: http://strawpoll.me/1799052

Depending on the price I am interested in a black, silver, blue or red set of SC2 keys.

Will the pricing be similar to IMSTO?

I'm not sure about pricing yet, still not completely sure how many sets I can bring back to the states with me. Though, these are slightly different from the caps that IMSTO has, so pricing will probably be higher.

trypophobia incoming with the zerg key

I have trypo and the zerg key looks ok, especially if backlit. I think the grouping just isn't terrifying enough for me.

The colour scheme vote is a little tough, since terran is blue, zerg is purple, and toss is gold - so to have one colour for all three is a bit tricky. That being said, I'm in for this.
Someday somebody will best me, but it won't be today, and it won't be you.

I'm thinking I can get a couple of the blue/purple/gold sets, and then mix/match the sets OR sell the keycaps individually. Do you think people would be more for that? I've only really seen the titanium colored ones on GH from my searches.

I wouldn't know if there's enough total interest to warrant that. It was just a thought - it would really depend on whether you can reach the minimum you need for this.

The thing is, I don't really need a minimum :P. I'm just going to order them by myself. I guess I could just get a number of sets, say like 20, and then sell them off over time.

Prices shouldn't be too out of line compared to other sales like this. I've decided to get 5 sets of each color, unless there are large amounts of people expressing interest in certain colors!

Looks like I can pick about 7-10 sets of each color scheme, so no worries there!

Well, the largest ordeal was contacting the sellers! Order count as of now is for 10 Titanium, 9 Blue, 9 Purple, 9 Gold, 5 Red. Sadly, it seems that MKC does not make the red keycaps that you see in the pictures. They're now completely red as seen here  :(.66866-0

Hopefully I'll get pictures up by the 10th, so stay tuned.

Titanium was the name used for the color. Seller told me that these are (probably) aluminum.

Titanium set 5x
Blue set 9x
Red set 2x
Purple set 8x
Gold set 8x

I looked through almost every set to spot for defects/blemishes, and sadly I found quite a few. I took those ones out, and will list them for $5 each. By blemish, I mean like some of the aluminum coating is chipped off, or there's a spot. It's actually really not noticeable, but I don't feel comfortable sending those out at higher prices.

There will be some selection from the following sets with undamaged individual keycaps for $10 each.

I'll take a purple set unless somehow you have the undamaged keycap selection where terran is blue, zerg is purple, and protoss is gold - then I'll take those three lol. Send me a PM.

Somehow all the blue sets came in unscathed! The individual keycaps I have are mostly in red/gold/titanium with a couple in purple. I'll post up the stock of individuals.

If you want to reserve your caps, leave a message here, or shoot me a PM. I'm going to be listing into classifieds within 1-2 weeks, once I get everything sorted out and get shipping materials.

Got it :).

By the way, my flight back to the US is in about 15 hours, so I won't be able to respond quickly if you PM/leave posts here after I sleep tonight. Heads up for those who think I'm ignoring or something.

Reserved!

Edit: On another note, probably just PM me your orders/reservations. Don't want to spam this IC forum too much with just this. I'm going to make a full inventory list on Google Drive once I get back to the US.

Doing a final quality check on every single keycap... sigh. Found more chips on the coating for some in the blue set, so individuals will be available for those too. I'm expecting to finish sorting everything by this weekend.
