Hey,
This is an interest check for a keycap set inspired by Madvillainy, an album created by duo Madvillain (consisting of MF DOOM and Madlib) and released in 2003.
Madvillainy is one of the most influential and highly regarded hip-hop albums of all time. The album cover features the MC MF DOOM in his iconic mask.
This keycap set will most likely be produced by GMK.
There are 2 different versions, please provdie feedback on which one you prefer.

how about a full grey on black set? ;D

I second this. Grey on black caps will look super stealthy while still keeping the legend look that is so attractive. It's something that is only possible on doubleshot keys because of the limitations on dye sub. It'd be a better version of the Black on Black sets that have been around for a while because they would actually be black and not dark grey. Please make this happen!
Big fan of MF Doom! :D
I prefer the Version 1. Hoping for novelties! :thumb:
I prefer keyset 1. Maybe a darker grey legend and throw visibility to the wayside? Maybe not though, either way I approve. Can there be a color pack or something with orange Esc, Arrows, Enter, and numpad Enter, and the backspace? I like the scheme just for people with larger boards that colored numpad enter evens out the "accent" in my opinion.

That would be incredible! As long as we also got a black colored backspace. I'm a big fan of getting accents (especially orange :thumb: ) but I'd also like to have the ability to make it plain when I need it. Especially with a set such as this one.
Have you given thought to the kind of compatibility keys you're going to include?
IMO GMK terminal did a really good job with the extra compatibility keys. If a similar all in one kit could be made for this set, I would buy it in a heartbeat.
Is this going to be a Madvillainy themed set or can there be influences from Dooms other work/albums like "Mm... Food" which would look great on the enter key imo :)

How about "meat grinder" as the "backspace" key? :D

This is pretty rad. It looks almost identical to the special GMK set that is coming with the Extent though. I think they will have a red enter and a red escape.
Based on feedback from the community, this is the current design:

This is the ISO-UK set, with additional coloured accents:

I think I will organise the group buy to be like GMK Terminal. There will be one large base kit, and then further additional kits. I don't want the initial base kit too be too expensive, so at this point I will not confirm which compatibility kits will be available.

^^ That is the wrong attachment.

This is the all black set.
I like the idea of a barebones base kit and extra child kits but there might be problems with reaching the MOQ...
I would be down for at least 1 base set and a set of accent keys and novelties.
love it, the orange accent keys look really good, and i really like the simplicity of the white ones.

GMK is notorious for being difficult to reach MOQ since they need to reach 150 orders on each kit. I might be weary of what you include in the compatibility kits as they most likely won't make it. Then once it becomes clear someones kit isn't going to be made they'll drop out of the buy. Most GMK kits include color accents within the main kit because of this difficulty. It's much more possible to get kits into production with SP since their MOQ is much lower.
Edit: If you want to go really barebones with the main kit, I would look at what Manifex did with GMK stormtrooper. His kit came up to be $100 during the GB period, which I think is a really good price, and it had all of the "standard" keys but omitted things like 1800, 75%, and smaller layouts. It's completely up to you how to run this GB but it's best to look at all the options.

I think if you're just going to have 4 colored keys, it might as well be in the base kit. I also liked the original orange base and black (?) legend accent caps more than the current image. Also, numpad enter accent please! Tough to tell how well the dark on dark will play out in these basic images but I think that most of the purchasers would be expecting something similar to RF caps in terms of legend visibility, possibly a bit better.
While splitting it into kits might be an issue, I don't think a single color accent kit would have much trouble making MOQ if the base set doesn't have trouble either. Nor would a non-standard layout kit. It might make for a cheaper base set but more expensive add-ons but honestly, I like the concept enough (personally) that I wouldn't have any issue with that. Hope to see this happen.

take away the orange backspace and this set could also work as an IC for GMK Keycap Set Based On Kendrick Lamar's "To Pimp A Butterfly"

Apologies, but what/whom you are referring to?
I like it but I don't know if it'll make it to MOQ. Definitely might get a set, though.
As a totally biased fc660c owner, with a clueboard on the mail, would it be possible to add a 2.25 shift to the base kit?
A lot of sets have been including it lately.

Thank you for the feedback. The base kit will include all of the compatibility keys for the most common layouts, without being to expensive. Hopefully that will help it to reach MOQ.As a totally biased fc660c owner, with a clueboard on the mail, would it be possible to add a 2.25 shift to the base kit?

Are there any other keys I would need to include?
just the additional 2.25 shift and you will cover all the 660 style boards.
This is very interesting
Yes, yes, yes! I'd love to actually have sets inspired by albums I adore, like Madvillainy. The colors also also work quite well for Allelujah! Don't Bend! Ascend! (though I'd still be quite interested in something based off of LYSFLAttH as a set down the line as well).
Looking forward to this one!
I was looking through the mockup and I noticed you have two 2u deletes. Those are usually 1.5u so they can be used in row2 for a hhkb style backspace.
I hope others can chime in about their preferred layout but once the 1.5u delete is fixed my layout looks like it's covered.
just the additional 2.25 shift and you will cover all the 660 style boards.
Definitely like the base kit support. I'd be in for a set.
Oooh, I love MF DOOM. Can we please have a separate novelties set? Don't think I can afford the entire set.
Also, can we have an "ALL CAPS" capslock key? :P (and maybe the mask?) EDIT: Of course allready suggested...
MF DOOM based keyset? :thumb:
This set is dope af
I'm really into this. I think the colorway can appeal beyond DOOM's fanbase (and I think it has to to make MOQ). Those GMK MOQs are tough...
I can already see a DOOM artisan cap on this tho . . .
Hmm, not sure. Would be nice of the orange matched the orange in the cover. Would prefer grey over white as well as the cover is more black/gray than black/white.

Thank you for the feedback!
Here is an image with the changes you have suggested:
I have changed the off-white coloured keys (GR1) to a grey (2B), and the orange keys have been changed from V2 to V1.
What do you think of these changes?
Really digging this set. I miss the orange legends on black you had before. I do like the grey keys, would be nice to see the addition of a grey numpad enter.

I do think 2 accents with different base colors may be much though I do like one different base color. Yes accent numpad enter... Progressing nicely btw OP
What row profile is the 1.5u bottom row? I'm hoping for a R5 set.
The keycap set row configuration will be: R1-R1-R2-R3-R4-R4Ok. Thanks for the quick reply.
I like MF DOOM a lot, though it is a fairly hard album to derive a palette from I think it works fairly nicely - singular concern (not really), it sorta resembles the exclusive GMK set that's being produced along side the Exent keyboard; might be worth looking into.
Gotta be honest my first thought was the Extent keyset as well, not saying that is a bad or good thing.

Yea, I mean the red here is not actually red and the accents are in different positions and there's the white too but still, it just gives off a similar vibe for obvious reasons. Either way, I love the Exent set, so take that as one will!
I have added the coloured Enter key.

Please could you consider adding the keys to support 1800 layout. This set already has most of the keys required (already has split numpad +/-, already has 1u numpad zero, already has 1.75u shift). The only keys you need to add for full 1800 compatibility would be R1 Delete, Pg Down and End. Seems like a waste to include most of the stuff needed for 1800 users but not all of it. This is especially a deal breaker for me.
Would like other 1800 users to chime in on this plz! ;)

Since this is a product of some changes and feedback to options given, I think it's important to not dwell on this comparison since comparisons usually carry a negative connotation in the keyset realm. I liked the Exent set a lot, they didn't want to make it full or available unless you bought the board which was a bummer.
I actually view this set in the same light as dark PBT sets, which everyone makes and is a fairly easy to use and great looking set. I'm really excited for the large compatibility and I like the accents. Sometimes, it's just nice to have a set that will go with whatever color artisan you have :P

In what time frame are you aiming at launching this?
this set looks awesome, any chance of a 1.5u Backspace key as well?

This is used for the default Infinity 60% keyboard Standard and Hacker layouts (https://input.club/devices/infinity-keyboard/ (https://input.club/devices/infinity-keyboard/)), default White Fox keyboard True Fox layout (https://input.club/devices/infinity-keyboard/ (https://input.club/devices/infinity-keyboard/)).
Since these are programmable keyboards, I'm not sure if everybody uses the 1.5u backspace and it might just be a niche thing, but I love it since I do use it quite a bit and it's easier to reach. I've even programmed my VE.A keyboard to use the 1.5u backspace

That 1.5u is R2, I have added a R1 1.5u Backspace. If the R2 1.5u is fine then I will remove the R1 Backspace.
The R2 1.5u Backspace would be preferable to the R1 for the layouts I listed, but again it might be a niche thing and I don't know how many people keep that layout on those boards.

I've never seen a 1.5u key with "Backspace" written out and I assume its because it doesn't fit.

Those keys aren't made by GMK though and GMK is the intended maker of this set. As far as I know GMK has never made a 1.5u "Backspace" key.

I have it on mine, but it's split into Back Space, although I'm using a R2 Delete key in this pic, I've since changed it to R1 where the Tilde key is.

Sorry I was unclear, hopefully this image will explain it better. I'm currently using a R2 1.5u Backspace (where the 1.5u Delete key is in the pic) and I use a R1 1u Delete key (where the tilde key is)
If this is too much trouble, then I'll be fine with the R2 1.5u Delete key. Like I said, I don't know how many people use a 1.5u Backspace key (on R2) and what it essentialy boils down to is that I'd rather the key say Backspace instead of Delete.

So, the R1 1.5u Backspace key OP added is not needed, you just want the legend to be different on the 1.5u Delete key. The intended purpose of this cap is to be used as a backspace key on HHKB layouts, evidenced by the orange R2 Delete key in the current set and the orange R1 Backspace key.
Also, I like grey accents and am indifferent towards the legend on the R2 1.5u HHKB Delete key.
FYI you are not alone in your use of that key, it's not too uncommon: http://imgur.com/a/L7kdt
I'm down for the grey personally. Would be nice to see a render if/when you get the chance :thumb:
May I ask, which accents do you prefer, white or grey?Sounds good. I prefer the grey ones ;D
Hhkb still does need a r2 1.5u backspace. Maybe replace the 1.5 delete keys with the more neutral "x" legend Vypr pointed out?

Looks good
Shaping up very nicely!
As a 75% user I would have liked the alternative profile pgup/pgdown and home/end keys (also for 65% users), but I understand if those are sacrificed to keep the set economical.
can't wait to see GMK render pics when it moves to the next stage. :o

+1
75% and 65% have become very popular in the last year, and they only require 3 or 4 extra keys.
I am happy to make this compatible with 75% keyboards. Which extra keys are required, and which Row should they be?
I believe, R2 Pg Up, R3 Pg Dn, R4 End would make it 75% compatibleYes, exactly, I was thinking of those keys
I believe, R2 Pg Up, R3 Pg Dn, R4 End would make it 75% compatible. The R1 Del is supplied by the 1800 compatibility.
Yes, exactly, I was thinking of those keys
Any chance we could get a R1, 1u, backspace? Left arrow or BS works.
I joined just for this set. :)
This is rather expenisve :(

Did you expect to not have to pay VAT just because it's an European GMK buy? That's not how it works at all.
What do you expect shipping to US to be?
The reason this is more expensive than originally planned is because a large amount of keys have been added to make this set compatible with more layouts.

I understand - my sole point was that the person I replied to seemed to be implying that the prices are high for an EU (or UK, I guess) GMK buy as if the prices are supposed to be that different from an US one; VAT is basically the same, only difference is it is already included in the base price rather than having to pay it upon distribution arrival.
Shipping prices are awesome, by the way.
The base cost is pretty high. May doom (heh) a novelties kit? While I appreciate the complete compatibility, I don't think it's necessary to not expect some flexibility by the purchasers. I mean, just because there is one request doesn't mean it needs to be added. It worries me as if that continues to be the case and it's not broken into kits, it'll become very bloated in price.
As it stands this is on the very edge of what I would pay for a GB GMK set. Similar to Terminal.
^ agreed. Careful catering to every single weird request like stepped 1.75u FN keys and stuff like that, just look at every other successful GMK buy and copy them more or less and see what you end up with (eg. Muted that's currently being ran, Terminal, Carbon, etc.).
Since you are based in the EU, at least still for some months, you can ask GMK to omit the payment of the VAT, this way your set will be 22% cheaper. You must give GMK a VAT registration number, it can be the number of a business, or something similarYou're actually suggesting a fraud here and I would strongly suggest the vendor not to follow this wicked advice.

I don't know about the criminal law in the UK but around here in Italy VAT fraud is a criminal offence and I wouldn't be surprised if it was anywhere similar.
The only legal way not to pay Germany's VAT, which is 19% FIY Giorgio, is to wait for the actual Brexit, that way the UK would be considered an extra-european country and therefore not subject to EU VAT.

[..] if the customer has a valid VAT number.This make a huge difference. You're suggesting to provide a VAT number of a business, not theirs. You're implying that they can just fill the field and forget about VAT.

Please don't remove the black 1.5u delete key. Without it, I can't get myself to buy this set.
I would add 1800 compatibility back as it is fairly popular. I would probably remove the 1.5u Orange Delete in favor of a black. I would probably require the people who want a 1u Backspace to suffice with the R1 Delete key supplied by 1800 compatibility.
I think since a lot of the attraction of this set is the ability to use it as a solely grey on black keyset, it would hurt it to remove the non-accent colored caps in favor of just having the accent colored caps. Rather, it may be better (if the option is to eliminate one or the other) to eliminate the accented version while leaving the base colored version. I definitely get where the want for the accent is coming from but I also think the 2u orange Backspace still effectively captures that.

What if the base kit was all black with the additional orange backspace, but the novelties were bundled with the grey accents in a separate pack for those who wish to maintain the DOOM theme?
This would allow customers who want this just for the black and grey to purchase this, without having to pay to much and forcing them to purchase keys they do not want.
These would be the 2 kits:
- Base kits (All Black Keycaps with Grey Legends + 1 Orange Backspace)
- Novelties + Coloured Accents. (Grey Keycaps + Novelties)
Also what do you think about the second backspace being black but the legend being orange? This would be instead of the entire key being orange.

For me, I'm not a big novelty guy but it depends what the novelties are. So personally, I would like this if there was a color pack and then a novelty pack but this brings some MOQ questions up.
I would also like to keep the orange backspace as I feel it better displays the inspiration for this set and that a black base with orange legend may look more out of place. Whereas an orange base makes it clearly an accent.
It may be a poll would help.

I can see this working out best.
I like the black with orange legend; it's a subtle nod to geekhack as well. If you want, you could have the full orange key in the novelty kit.
I would be in for 2 novelty sets. Those would fit GMK Dolch perfectly if you keep those colours :D

Yes, I'm sure others will disagree and lay down ultimatums of never joining without ____ key!
I use the 1.5u Backspace and I'd much rather have a base colored than an accented so I can match the set with whatever I'd want. 2u is used by a large majority (I have this too) so it makes sense to have both accented and non. 1800 compatibility is pretty much becoming standard compatibility to add. IMO opinion it works, hopefully can get the price down a bit.
Personally, I like the grey accents and think they deserve a kit and a shot at MOQ. Buuuttttt part of me also thinks that an accent kit for this is any colored mod that has black legends and if you want to do that at a later date with the color tbd that works too ;)
Thank you for putting this together and taking the time to listen to us and our requests.
Really looking forward to this :thumb:

How do you create a poll on GeekHack?
The problem with an all black set and recommending people add their own color kit is there's a severe lack of orange keys available elsewhere, and that was one of the major draws for me. Black, orange, gray just doesn't exist elsewhere and only a few sets (carbon, skidata) that are expensive to procure have any orange mods. I do think a color pack would be in order. You can get black on black sets already from several places.

I think at the moment, to include the coloured keys in the base kit is too expensive. If I were to include the coloured keys in this group buy, they would be in a separate kit, however I was hesitant to suggest this as I am unsure about the coloured pack reaching the MOQ of 150.
If the demand is high for the coloured keys then I am happy to offer them as a separate pack.
Definitely interested in this! I agree with some users as to keeping the look as per indicated in version 3. But I wouldn't mind an all-black+dark grey set nonetheless.
Interested! ;D
Very nice. I think the text-only modifiers look much better. What do you think about adding 'code' to the blank win keys?
Looks better with text only. I like the 'code' idea too.
It's becoming an end game set, CAPS. :thumb:
I think "code" feels a bit out of place in this sets theme. But better than a blank imo.
I hadn't thought about text only for this set but it does look attractive. Bring it on!
Also I don't think that adding code will match with this sets Doom theme
Deff keeping an eye on this , I love the color scheme.
I agree that the keys don't look great blank, however I don't think "code" fits the theme.How about novelties? That mask on the cover would look great.

I can confirm that the mask design will be available most likely on a 1U R1 KeyWinkey novelties might raise some interest, as many are unhappy with the actual windows symbol.
Any novelties or price updates? Also any idea when the GB is planned to be run?

Nice looking set. I love black on Black.

Thank you for the feedback! I am still waiting to receive a quote from GMK for the latest base kit, however hopefully the price will be lower.
This keycap set is still happening. I am still waiting for GMK to provide me with a new quote, I am unsure as to why it is taking so long.
Funny how I missed this IC until now. Just wanted to say this set seems identical(apart from the orange backspace) to the one run specially for the Exent - http://i.imgur.com/YyiDVrM.png
Anyway, it looks great! I'm definetely interested.

That GMK render might have just sold me on this set. :)
Lovely render.
Any chance to have Backspace R2 instead of Delete? Oblivion has it so it's possible.
I will work on getting the render updated.Great to hear. Thanks for taking our opinions into account.
...since you're using an iconless scheme, which is awesome...I agree. It was one of the reasons I joined oblivion and I'm glad this set is following suit.
I will work on getting the render updated.Great to hear. Thanks for taking our opinions into account.
One more thing: since you're using an iconless scheme, which is awesome, that R1 icon backspace has no reason to be, in my opinion.
this could be changed to BS or a regular left arrowBack arrow would be an icon over a whole set of text. Won't just fit if you ask me.
The reason to keep the key is it would be one of only a few sets to support split backspace, making it more valuable.I'm not against 1u R1 backspace, but I guess a text would look better, even if abbreviated to BS.

...Is it possible to keep the R2 1.5u "Delete"? then add additional 1.5u "Backspace" for those who need.
Thank you for the feedback.
I have requested a new quote and render from GMK for the following changes:
- R2 1.5u Changed from "Delete" to "Backspace"
- R1 1u changed from "Backspace Icon" to "BS"
- R1 1u changed from "Backspace Icon" to "BS"Great. Looking forward to it.
Is it possible to keep the R2 1.5u "Delete"? then add additional 1.5u "Backspace" for those who need.That makes sense.
isn't the reason for a 1.5u delete key because some don't like backspace broken into two lines?To my understanding, the reason for R2 1.5u Delete is for HHKB compatibility.

I just meant why someone would choose one over the other.It really comes down to personal preference. Perhaps having both, if the price increase isn't noticeable, is a wiser choise.

I just meant why someone would choose one over the other. For my HHKB backspace purposes, both are acceptable. I think Honeywell had an issue where people didn't like their 1.5u having back and space on different lines so they got a 1.5u Delete key made. Or maybe it was the other way around I'm not sure.

Can you school me on how Varmilo relates to this GMK set?
My apologies, I meant this is the design I will submit to GMK.
I am currently in the process of submitting the most recent Varmilo group buy orders to Varmilo, and accidentally mentioned them
Looks very nice, although I'm pretty sure the orange ALL CAPS can't be made because that would require a triple shot cap. I read somewhere that they are possible but super expensive.
Are you planning for some of the novelties to be pad-printed? AFAIK GMK can't do triple shot, and there might be some issues with line thickness on some of those for double-shotting so you should check with GMK about their minimum thickness spec.
I am considering having Back Space, but the font will be smaller.Is that possible with GMK?

The render picture looks great!
Concerning the novelties, I think I would prefer the second version. It seems to be more consistent with the colour theme (only three colours).
I'm really glad to see this going forward, I remember spotting this thread in March, and being instantly interested simply for the MF Doom link. The Novelties are great, and the Grey on Black is something I haven't really seen on a GMK set, and I can't help myself with "stealth" looking sets.
Love the look of the novelties. Personally I'd go with Version 3, so that there's more hints of Orange than just the backspace, though I can also understand the appeal of having version 2 instead, for the consistency, especially for people who would would to use the novelties but without using the orange backspace.
Looking forward to more progress, and getting my wallet ready

A lot of custom boards allow the use of a 6u space bar. Many duck boards allow this so that you can mimic Topre layouts. I'm personally in favor of having a 6u space bar included with the set.

Scooped homing keys are a must, everything else I am indifferent about (6u spacebar would be neat tho)

I am considering adding a R1 1u DOOM mask novelty key, but besides that I think that this is going to be the final base kit.
A new price is coming soon. Please tell me if you notice any issues.
Thanks.
In an effort to streamline the set, most sets only include 1 R2 1.5u delete/backspace. I think most people use it as backspace so it would make sense to have that legend. Since the HHKB has delete, I'm personally fine with either one.
i like the little backspace/delete icon, but that might open a whole nother can of worms...I like it too, but since this is a text only mod set..

It doesn't make any compatibility issues but I think that "code" is a better choice instead of "super".Agreed.
It doesn't make any compatibility issues but I think that "code" is a better choice instead of "super". Super usually refers to being a windows key or the equivalent on other OS. Where Code can mean anything.

+1 on Code over Super. You'll need 2 1.0s and 2 1.5u's right?\
I just became aware of this today. The set looks pretty cool, that, depending on pricing, could be a great last of the year buy. The inclusion of both delete and backspace makes this a nice set to have and the full only text modifiers are also a very good addition to the stock of pretty much anyone, due to its low contrast, it may go very well with many OG and GMK sets. I'd like to see the legends to be a bit more contrasting if possible. Some renders could pull a bit more interest and please make the 6u space bar off centered, considering that you are targeting to cover the 18xx keyboards.

Does this mean that I have to include 2x6u spacebars? One centred, and one off centred?
It doesn't make any compatibility issues but I think that "code" is a better choice instead of "super". Super usually refers to being a windows key or the equivalent on other OS. Where Code can mean anything.
In an effort to streamline the set, most sets only include 1 R2 1.5u delete/backspace. I think most people use it as backspace so it would make sense to have that legend. Since the HHKB has delete, I'm personally fine with either one. I'm sure other HHKB-layout users could chime in.
Throughout this IC many have requested code, and so I will replace super with code.+1 on Code over Super. You'll need 2 1.0s and 2 1.5u's right?\

I'd love to see a few more novelties like the ones shown in the first page, if I understand your latest post correctly and you're only going to be submitting just the 4 of them (three of them being the same DOOM mask) it may not warrant them having their own kit which would be a shame. I think there's so much potential for cool ones to go with this particular theme.
Yeah, the novelties are and can be great with this theme. Maybe add the grey "Mm... food" enter-key?
I'd definitely be in for the base set. Maybe even the novelties.
I'll be following this for sure! :thumb:
If the price of the base kit is too high, I will consider removing the novelty keys and making them their own kit. If I do that I can include more novelty keys, however the only reason why I am hesitant to do that is because I am not sure a novelty kit will reach the required MOQ of 100. I would hate to see the novelty kit fail to reach MOQ and there be no novelty keys at all. I would rather present fewer novelties with a higher chance of getting them produced, rather than presenting lots to the community but the chance of the them not being produced being a lot higher.Yes, I think it is smart to try and keep the novelties in the base kit to make sure we reach MOQ. I´m happy with the current novelties. ^-^
Perhaps it's late to ask, but will you consider offering a NorDe (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=85609.0;topicseen) kit?
Nautilus has 1k base set orders and 50 Norde kits, please stop asking for norde kitsI'm sure it wasn't your intention to sound rude, and I'm sure a NorDe kit in the GB won't annoy you either. Since the GB handler is in the UK it might attract more european customers, hence the reason for a NorDe kit.

Norde kit's potential users tend to hesitate to join MD drops due to high taxes and shipping costs, therefore an MD drop demand for a Norde kit is not representative of the actual need for it. An Euro-based GB has larger chances to pull demand for a Norde kit than an MD drop has.
When would the set be scheduled for production?

I think I will start the group buy 31st July, and run it for 3 weeks. Assuming the production time is 14 weeks, I think customers will receive this in December hopefully.

What kind of vacation is that with no browsing GH twice a day?Unbeatable argument, I take my question back.
I have added the final pricing for this keycap set, please read the original post.
just for reference Honeywell had 148 keys and the Group Buy price was $135.Caps Unlocked is registered in the UK and therefore subject to the german VAT (19%). Also, being them a business, you'd need to consider some markup as well.
I have added the final pricing for this keycap set, please read the original post.Ready to place my order.
For people not based in EU the final cost for the set would be expensive considering the price plus shipping cost. Hope it reaches MoQ though, it is a nice set.
Sorry if I missed this some where, but where will this GB be held?
The only thing that could improve this set would be icon legends.. but too late I guess. And it's not like I won't buy because it doesn't have them ;)

Old and boring classic legends and icon modifiers work for me pretty well, though.
Yeah, sorry to say but it is too costly for me, especially for just black on black. At $100 I'd be in, but at $150 it's too much. Good luck with the GB though!!

This is the render on the M65-A. This render does not include any novelty keys, as they are currently being modified to meet GMK's guidelines.

This set has been delayed due to other projects, and due to the GMK Mondrian group buy being extended. I am also trying to get a NA proxy.Thanks for the update :D Good to know it is still on track, albeit delayed

Nautilus ran on Massdrop, sold 1900 base kits, and 82 Norde kits. Now try and imagine how many Norde kits this set will sell. There is no point in offering one if you can bet your years salary that it won't hit MOQ.

In a UK gb it would be great and price isn't to high for the extra keys..Although there's Germany's VAT to pay.
it will also take some time getting keebpeeps in the EU attention. They have to learn that there is light ahead and the keysets are available without the high import tax from the US.
Cut the ANSI keys out of this set and make that as a add-on...That sounds like a good way to alienate ANSI buyers.

I'm all for Wodan's suggestion of adding the international keys and making an even better base kit. Separating the ANSI keys into a separate kit sounds like a step backwards.

It would be cool with a everything "world wide" international based set. :p it's just when it's a UK based GB thats seems at aiming ANSI as it 1st priority and the reason the Nordic set is cut out of the base set to keep the cost down etc. Wish thinking was just a reverse version with ISO uk as first priority with Wodan's minimum kit added to the base set adding only the 16,50 € more to a base set with a moq at 150 as the quote from gmk in the thread.
Its a awesome clean set and the work behind bringing to the people :thumb: I am just a tiny sad that finally a EU gb for a set that so clean and classic and ships from the UK I will not be able to join bc of 16,50€ :(

Yeah ANSI is usually the focus but that's because the US has half the population of all of Europe. That's a huge amount of people that all use the exact same alphas. That's not even counting the Asian market, many of whom also buy ANSI alphas. Putting ANSI on the side puts a GB on the back foot from the start and in jeopardy of not being made. That's why I think adding Wodan's keys are the best solution. You add the most important international keys to the base set so that European countries keys are included and MOQ is met.
This is getting a little bit off topic though so I'll probably make future comments in the Wodan thread.
Point is just adding the Nordic kit to the base set and more Europeans would join.This is the exact point I'm making. :)) I just didn't like your separate ANSI kit suggestion lol

By experience, a single full set has better chances to reach MoQ than splitting it in alphas, mods and kits
Then lets put Wodan`s norde kit in the base set!Wodan's point has always been to include NorDe keys in the base set, since the increased cost, for a 100+ keys keyset, was around €16.50.

Yeah, that is a possibility and we need a brave GB leader to give the idea a try and evaluate if that combination is economically feasible; personally, I think it would have a hard time to be sell, due to a thirty dollars premium over an standard ANSI set that I doubt the common GB participant may be willing to pay for keys that will be in her drawer forever.
I will admit I am hesitant to add all of the keys from this: (http://www.keyboard-layout-editor.com/#/gists/6f7830fa68c43c022e3d691bddb1a9a2 (http://www.keyboard-layout-editor.com/#/gists/6f7830fa68c43c022e3d691bddb1a9a2)) as I feel it may add to much to the price of the base kit especially for ANSI users whom will never use these keys, but I understand that it will make this set more appealing to European customers.You could try and offer it as a separate kit.
If you want to purchase this keycap set, please let me know as I would like to gauge the interest level in this set before I start the group buy.Many sets have to deal with the fact that those who expressed their interest don't always actually order them.
Hey,
I would like to apologise for the lack of communication regarding this set.
Thank you for all of your feedback, it is great to know there is interest in this set.

I was aiming to run this group buy fairly soon, however group buys for other keycap sets are starting (or already running) and I do not wish to compete against them. I will confirm a date as soon as possible, but this group buy will most likely begin in October.
Another reason for the delay is that many users have expressed the opinion that this set is too boring, and whilst I love this keycap set, I am unsure whether there is enough interest for this keycap set to reach the MOQ of 150. If you want to purchase this keycap set, please let me know as I would like to gauge the interest level in this set before I start the group buy.
The novelties have been reworked slightly (same designs but the lines are thicker) in order to meet GMK's guidelines. The new novelty designs are being submitted to GMK and once they have been improved, I will release renders for them
If you have any other feedback, please let me know.
Thank you for reading.

Regarding a "Norde" kit these should just be the keys to add to the set for minimal European coverage:

though i do like the Q@ and Mu legend.

Not sure why not more set isnt using that Q+M sublegends.
Money all saved up! Start the GB! :))
Unfortunately GMK have rejected most of the novelty designs. I can organise the group buy however the only novelties that will be available will be the DOOM mask.Fair enough for me. I'm mainly buying it for the colour scheme.

I sort of liked the orange backspace key. It was something different from the Esc./Enter accents that seem to be in every other keyset on GH.
I'd have to agree, dropping the orange backspace isn't a big loss, I use split backspace. Orange enter and escape sounds cool, I've SkiDolcha so can just use that sets stuff if needed. I don't care for novelties of any kind. Still hoping this happens though!
Edit: Dare I suggest... a color pack of Esc and Enter keys of various popular colors?

I do like the grey on black look of the set. I would dare to suggest to invert the alphas (CR on N9) to make it a two tone, but I guess this set has already gone under too many revisions.

After much consideration, this is going to be an MF DOOM keycap set. The 1u R1 MF DOOM mask novelty will be included with the base set, with the following colour scheme:
- CR Base
- N9 Legend
and also:
- CR Base
- V2 Legend
In addition to this both of the R3 ALLCAPS Keycaps will also be included, as will the V2 backspace.
Add On Pack:
The add on pack will include the following:
- R1 Backspace Key
- R1 Coloured MF DOOM Mask Key
- R3 ALLCAPS Key
Each of these 3 keycaps will come in all of the remaining colours of MF DOOM's "Special Herbs Volumes" Record Sleeves:

Regarding the price, the price for customers in the EU will be 140GBP. I know that this is high, but it also includes free next day shipping with DHL which is approx. 10-20GBP (depending on your location).

So the price is 120 + 10-20 shipping? Seems unfair for someone to pay 140 but delivery costs 10, and another pays 140 but their delivery is 20.

given the quotes i've gotten from GMK in the past month, providing VAT is included that's pretty good
and besides, when you get free shipping from somewhere, it's not always a flat rate, it's just not mentioned

- 1x 1.75u Shift (R4)
- 2x 1.5u Modifier (R4)
- 1x 7u Spacebar
Holy **** I need this set! Ordered my first mechanical keyboard a few days ago (Tokyo60 from MD) and this seems perfect. Probably not the best place to ask this but...I'm not very familiar with keycap sizing, based on what I read in the description of the keyboard, I would need to at least find a different space bar to fit?QuoteMost GMK Kits will fit.

this will have everything you need to cover the tokyo60
how long does it usually take for the actual keyset to ship?Production time is usually sixteen weeks with GMK, then the sets are shipped to the seller and then to the customer.
Isn‘t it cheaper to buy from the US proxy as European then? Where does the huge difference in price come from?

I think it's so you don't get hit with customs fees.

iirc UK price includes shipping. I don’t think it’s been mentioned if US price includes shipping but I would assume no.Isn‘t it cheaper to buy from the US proxy as European then? Where does the huge difference in price come from?

Custom fees are 8GBP/11USD, VAT is $27. $10 cheaper to buy from proxy (with VAT + customs factored in), but got to pay shipping so probably equal for the UK...
The base kit will include all of the 4 novelties.
