I was lucky enough to be a part of the original small run of this keyboard.

I believe the weight is changing from the prototype. The proto had a through hole weight, but I believe he's adjusting it to only be an internal weight.

Aww I liked the weight, although if I had to change anything, id like the top right symbol to be a few mm higher up, looks too close to the caps.

Yeah, I think it's to save cost. I think the symbol might be changing too. But that's just from the bits I've heard.

Oh- well I really hope purple is included in the GB. Looks like the one in the OP image is purple/gold, yours looks like purple/light blue. Hoping for purple/gold

There are only 6, the parts are interchangeable. I swapped the parts from the silver and purple. The gold is just a brass plate and insert. The teal is an alu plate and insert. I also have purple ones.

Quantrik just tends to favor lighter colors so he could end up doing a lighter purple. Id imagine if enough people were interested he would do purple either way tho. It’s just the specific Pantone. That’s all just guessing tho.

I found three so far :3

Definitely in for dark purple/gold


Same here - I am excited for this GB, but I don't really need another 65%. That dark purple/gold combo will make this an insta buy for me.

BTW - I'm assuming this wont be an FCFS or raffle...

Gonna paste a comment because it answers most of everyone above

A kit that will include:
 • Top/Bottom Aluminum Case
 • Brass weight
 • Plate in Brass/Aluminum
 • Logo in Brass/Aluminum
 • QMK PCB
will run you $420.
Shipping in the US should be ~$20-25 depending on location (shipped from US-TX). From my experience with the QXP group buy, most international shipping is ~$50-60.

50 Units, FCFS
