Well, I'm hoping to have it launched early next month at $115.  I'm working on coming up with a cap that's a freebie for a select number.  Also, if someone can make a skeletor themed svg for a novelty cap, that would be awesome.  Apparently GMK is becoming more open to novelty caps.

Where will this be sold? On here?

The GB will be run on here, but the shipping information, payment, etc will be given on the vendor site.

Did no one complain already about the "handbag" icon on caps lock? I thought loads of people hate that. Personally, I prefer text only on caps lock.

I wish it had the complete 1800 layout (it's missing R1 Del, End, PgDn) but I'll be buying it regardless.

This is a blue set.  Though the blue and purple combination is pretty damn nice.

If Ivan wouldn't have disappeared I know he had one made for one of his novelty dye-sub GBs.

This set is likely to take out Miami and 1976 as the most demanded keycap set ever made, timeless as the masters of the universe themselves... Nubs please make sure you pick a stable manufacturer in Asia because it is likely there will be demand for a second run and you wont need to re-source in future if you select the right manufacturer.   I think I recall the Tox drop running into long term difficulty.. Let us not have all your hard work run to ruin by slap dash production promises from OS.

The manufacturer is GMK.  The only thing we're waiting on is the sales/distribution company information that's being discussed.

hey nubbs, any update on the vendor? i am still hoping this set will get in GMK's production lineup in time for shipping this year.

just wondering - are you going with a vendor just to avoid paypal problems, or is it for shipping and distribution also?

It should be going live in the near future.  The vendor is to streamline the shipping and distribution, avoid paypal issues, and make sure that MOQ is met.

excellent. i know there are lots of people chomping at the bit for this, but it's better to get all your ducks in a row before opening this up. it will be worth the wait to have a well-planned group buy

Caps is either icon or text, there is no icon + text.


And I just realized that I made two small mistakes in my mockup.  They should now be fixed
