Base kit and novelty kit have been updated, very interested in feedback, thanks!
I think you should either remove these 2 from R4 or replace them with another novelty in 1.25 and 1.5u. Will we see novelties for ISO enter?

Serious question can you tell me why?

ISO nov is open for consideration. Would love to hear a few more people request it
Those 2 are already in R1 and R2 and they serve different functions. Have them in R4 for Control/Alt/Super is repetitive and not very logical imo.

Thanks just wanted to see your thinking, I guess the issue I always find with novelties is people use them in different places, some like the bottom row and some like the columns, as part of the layout I was trying to give a variety to everyone.
Also on a 60 percent not having the axe/hammer on the bottom row means novs cant be used, as they dont have a column for novs. (see the Axe renders above)

So would the addition of a novelty at R2 (shield) make more sense, then for those using novelties everywhere could do
Fire
Shield
Helmet
then Axe/Hammer/Tongs combo of 1.25u/1.5u depending on layout?
If I'm not wrong, the majority of the community is 65/75s. If this is the case, people will want different novelties for their macro column and for their R4 mod keys. Having different novelties for R4 Control/Alt/Super will not only benefit the 75/75s but also 60s users as well. I do believe that they who purchase GMK key sets generally own more than 1 keyboards and more than 1 layout. I've been seeing more and more novelty kits which have different keys in macro columns and in R4 Control/Alt/Super. My view could be wrong tho.
Thanks a lot appreciate all your feedback. I guess what I was saying while some caps are duplicated there are different ones as well for the macro column.
And to be honest, I didnt have any more ideas I really liked for additional novelties. Would love suggestions from everyone and would totally consider adding.

I think you can add a sword, a coin, a potion bottle, a furnace/hearth, a blower, a mould or a water container which use to cool off forged weapon. These items are highly related to the theme and some can be used to make iso enter novelties as well.

Big updates folks,

ZFrontier is in as vendor for China, GB date is set for September and molten alphas are in!!

The response on the white alphas has been very good so I am adding them in. Some tweaks to that kit may happen but wanted to get it posted ASAP. Iron 165 renders added with molten alphas

Gearman · « **Reply #55 on:** Thu, 08 April 2021, 21:01:09 »

This set is straight fire! Molten alphas, white alphas, colors, novelties, all so so good. I thought I was done buying GMK sets, but it looks like I've got at least one more to get.

For some reason I totally missed this reply, thank you so much!! Glad we could pull you back in for one more!!

Also note I have updated the Artisan makers on board and proud to announce Hellbent Caps is on board, check out his amazing work here https://www.instagram.com/hellbentcaps/

I'm surprised this doesn't have more comments. Love love the colors you've chosen.

I am so happy to see this set get another chance. I was so bummed when it got cancelled initially. PLEASE MAKE THIS HAPPEN! It is probably one of the most unique GMK concepts right now IMO.

gminso · « **Reply #60 on:** Wed, 23 June 2021, 00:08:22 »

the base kit render from forge post seem much deeper than the base render here. Which one is the close representation?

FluffyWaffle · « **Reply #61 on:** Mon, 28 June 2021, 13:40:05 »

I absolutely love this, showing my support here by commenting. Will be picking two sets up, one for me and one as a surprise for a friend (whenever this goes live & eventually get shipped).

Timception · « **Reply #62 on:** Tue, 29 June 2021, 09:54:15 »

Definitely getting one of these, also because they will be sold at ilumkb, just wish the GB was a little faster than Sep

I would say that is mostly affected by lighting, the original renders by Abec tend to be on the darker side. However keycaps can be funny, they tend in real life from my experience with GMK Copper (a similar-ish colour) to come out looking darker overall than the chip, just ever so slightly
The reason I bring this up is that Abec did the original renders for GMK Copper and also did the Original renders for GMK Forge (now GMK ReForged) where other renders of Copper came out lighter, however for Copper the Abec renders I think might be the truest representation.
I hope thats not to convoluted of an answer. Feel free to drop by the Discord for more discussion if you are interested

Thanks very much, ah September will come pretty quickly at least from my perspective lol thanks for the support!!

Great looking set - I ummed and ahhed over SA Copper for a long time, and bought it in the final hour. Glad that I did!

Still - I have stupid eyes.

Is the alt-alpha colour the same as the accented enter colour, or are they different shades?

Gabrielcr78 · « **Reply #65 on:** Tue, 27 July 2021, 08:57:48 »

really nice! any chance to add support for ANSI US International layout or ISO Spanish layout?

loftgoose · « **Reply #66 on:** Tue, 27 July 2021, 21:10:07 »

Any news on OCE/Aus vendors? Switchkeys for example would be good.

Sorry final kits are up now, we have tried to keep the kit as minimal and wide range appeal so we can make MOQ and keep pricing down, hopefully you can find something that works!

Yes same colour!

Similar to note above, kept it out of base to keep price down, however, added a little treat to the novelties hopefully you like them and its worth it to you to grab that kit

Sorry for the limited replies here folks, busy summer, and the set being well known I havent had a lot to add, however I can say feedback has continued to come in on the form and I thank you all for that. It has been very good, with very little requested changes. I hope you like the changes i have added.

The set is in for GMK quoting and we are still hoping for a 3rd week September go live however that could push out a bit depending on when they get back to us!
