I saw someone saying GMK changed the MOQs from 250 to 150 recently, is this true?

I have yet to receive any note on that.  I've seen some say that and I've had people contradict that.

So I am 100% buying this, if you are keeping a list. It will be for my modified HHKB with Nova Touch stems. Realistically, when can we expect to see this coming out? No rush obviously but I am very impatient!

Just got the mockup this morning.  I'll post it when I get home since its a pain to post from my phone.  GMK renders actually look like they've gotten slightly more color accurate, but some colors are still off.  It also appears that they have now officially named cyan TU2 and purple DY.

Keep in mind, GMK colors on their renders are incredibly inaccurate.  The actual color is far closer to the renders and what's in the OP.

That's the likely route.  I still have to get pricing and see if there's any more tweaks that need to be made. If it is MD, I have to see if they're willing to keep it as a complete set or if they are going to want to break it into a set and a pack.


Additionally, based on the renders, it looks like GMK no longer has the 6u space bar.  While, not ideal, I can always look into seeing if we can get a color matched SP spacebar in that length.  If that's not preferred, I might drop some more caps that were included for that specific layout.

They should be able to keep it as a complete set.  Didn't they do that with some of the other GMK sets?  Their ordering system would be able to handle that easily, at least.

Correct.  The colors were taken from a scan of the caps and viewed on an IPS monitor to try and ensure color match.  The green is GMK green on Elitekeyboards and the same green in the Royal Typewriter buy.

Other avenues are still being explored.

No on both.  Alt Gr isn't a necessary cap and there's little difference in looks between Alt and Alt Gr.   R5 causes a ton of problems, especially since it forces you to have mixed profiles, and very few people seem to like it.

No ETA yet.  I'm trying to make sure there's some times between it and the Royal Typewriter buy.  I also need to solidify how it will be run before a date is given.  I would like to have it happen no later than June, but if wishes were fishes and all that jazz.
