I forgot that I had the package sent home. So I ask, apparently it's "blaze orange" so I  can only assume that it's a gamer kit. R3 would have been better but I already have a similar R4 set on order

Mind if I ask how long ago you ordered the gold pack?  Mine has been on the way since about 30-Nov.
"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

Going to be purchasing either the Gold or TechKeys pack soon, but before I did I had some questions.
-Will there ever be another Premium pack for sale?
-What does the "At least 1 of iMav's Novelty Keys / Accessories" refer to specifically? And can anyone who got the Gold pack tell me what they got for their random key/accesory?
-What does the "At least 1 TechKeys Key (Past, Present, or Future)" refer to specifically? And can anyone who got the TechKeys pack tell me what they got for their random key?

Anyway thanks! And looking forward to donating a bunch to GeekHack this Christmas :D

  I am assuming there will be future fundraisers, but not in the form of a "Premium Pack"
-What does the "At least 1 of iMav's Novelty Keys / Accessories" refer to specifically? And can anyone who got the Gold pack tell me what they got for their random key/accesory?
  The keys vary in design and rarity.  Some have posted in this this thread

  Not many have ordered the Techkeys pack, but feel free to solicit feedback.

Do I attempt to bend it back by hand or what?  I assume just pressing it flat on a table won't work, and that it would need to extend past flat into an "opposite" bend in order to correctly be straightened?

Yes, bend it by hand until flat, checking for straightness with a table. Apply heat, then pressure where it is warped, and alternate, until flat. Pretty much every PBT spacebar I've ever received has been warped to some extent or other.

sorry, i totally missed this. unfortunately large PBT parts tend to come out with some warpage, and the KBC spaces are notorious for it. someone has a great guide on bending them straight by hand, but what jdcarpe said is dead on. basically, gently heat the plastic (use heated water) until it's just a little compliant, and then put pressure on it on a flat surface. hopefully someone can link the guide? as usual, it should be in the wiki, but it's not yet :(

Hey Kawa, I sent you a PM a while back about the warped space bar that came in my pbt white engraved set, did you by chance ever see that?  I was wondering if there was anything we could do about it. 
sorry, i totally missed this. unfortunately large PBT parts tend to come out with some warpage, and the KBC spaces are notorious for it. someone has a great guide on bending them straight by hand, but what jdcarpe said is dead on. basically, gently heat the plastic (use heated water) until it's just a little compliant, and then put pressure on it on a flat surface. hopefully someone can link the guide? as usual, it should be in the wiki, but it's not yet :(

Hair dryer, door frame & glass shelf for checking worked fine for me.

Easy peasy.
