Sorry for bumping this, but will there any international GB for this keyboard? Or should I order it through TAOBAO instead? I could use dotdotbuy for buying from TAOBAO

Yes, I'll be running it. You can go with Taobao if you know Chinese or get someone to translate, as you'll need to pay for shipping separately and specify all the options and all that jazz, but it's certainly doable and would save me some hassle.

ZZ96 is sorted out for now (waiting to send the payments to manufacturers), still need to prep invoices for TriC, and I'd like to get some of those sorted out before getting started with TANK. I expect to open it before the 15th and make 21st the payment deadline to give me ample time to transfer the funds over to China. Due to the ~40 orders that already exist in China, we're pretty much certain to get the lowest price tier unlocked already, so that's what I'll go by. Still waiting to sort out some color/customization info from TANK before that happens.

Which is why I said you need Chinese to specify all the options (within the order notes or afterwards via PM).

Update:

Will open up the buy over the next couple of days. The TANK team is considering changing up the anodizing to be "better" at a cost of about $50, and are also debating whether to offer it selectively. Without all the info hashed out, I cannot open the GB, and it is still set to conclude on the 30th.

The lowest price point has pretty much already been unlocked by the number of Chinese participants, so that's the price we're going by unless a significant number of cancellations occur depending on the decision of anodizing.

More info will come tomorrow.

If you intend to buy in, please fill out this form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1tCjV0PphRQ7GDP5vmELwR_1MDx5QJil8m_mHaE_SGXY/viewform

If you have filled out the form but would like to back out, please reply to this thread or PM me to let me know.

Since the PCBs are from Hojin, I assume that most standard TKL/pad PCBs would fit without issue.

Assembly from the TANK team is provided free of charge, but switches cost 2.5 RMB per, LEDs cost 0.3 RMB per, and stabilizers cost 25 RMB for the board. Due to the unnecessary layer of complexity that this adds, I won't make it an option unless you PM me to request it specifically once the GB opens.

We will be operating on a very tight timetable, and I will probably front the costs for it since the money needs to be sent before the end of the month, and there's really not enough time w/ the time it takes folks to arrange payment and for me to consolidate them into one account before wiring them overseas.

People who have filled out the form (so you know whether to contact me or not to back out):

To address some of the questions raised in the form:

Fully programmable, comes with the corresponding PCB, you can order one of them individually, the numpad can be attached to either side, all of the colors in the renders are available to choose from, you can choose the colors for the top/bottom/plate/backpiece, color options still TBD, has both WK and WKL options.

A reward for those of you who reached the end of this little update: http://sli.mg/a/38GbRy  :thumb:

I'm writing up the GB thread right now after receiving the final word on whether to use the "better" anodization. There was a group vote in China and the response was overwhelmingly in favor of yes, so now I have the final prices and can start up the GB.

V1 was run before, but I don't know when or the details regarding it.

Looks cool, but I'm not a fan of the tacky detail on the sides, that make it look like a crazy spaceship design that cheap companies like Razer love to follow these days. Less is more. Other than that, great project.

;D Because the side widgets can be replaced, so basically it can be turned into any shape~in the future

It's certainly a niche product. TANK doesn't follow the design philosophies that some other customs have held. A clean look may be nice, but variety is nice as well (even if it's not to your tastes, personally), don't you agree?
