how about a little break after all this group buy...

I agree completely. Triumph Addler, Granite, Duck Viper(Though I missed it >.>) and now the Pok3r

Waiting on a GMK or JT/CtrAlt Toxic.
White on Red mod Red Alert would be awesome.

GMK Cyrillic Replica

Show Image

I'm a little confused about the GMK Cyrillic... Is the red lettering just pad printed on there? If so who does this?  Does GMK do the double shots pad print them and then coat the keys with something? That's what I read but I thought that was a little strange! As I know IMSTO does a dye subbed Cyrillic but I thought GMK only did double shots. Sorry if I'm confusing anyone as I am too confused.
Looking for Black KMAC 2 or KMAC LE Preferably unbuilt kit but will consider an assembled board with clears Please PM me if you can help 8) Always on the lookout for KBK/KWK Bro Reapers,V2s and Clack factory skulls have lots of caps for trade

GMK doubleshots the base legends and then the Cyrillic layer is pad printed. After that, a protective clear coat is placed on the cap.

Cyrillic sounds awesome. I'd be more keen on the style with white mods and alphas though, really tired of beige.
It's a good width!  If it's half-width it's too narrow, and full-width is too wide.

I'd really like to see something purple or magenta.

Maybe something like what kin25 is doing for the TX1800 GB?





My second vote would go for Commando 23, and then finally Manly Unicorn. I'd honestly like to see the revival of some stuff from the far past, or something completely brand new. Olvetti, Red Alert, Dolch (no more please), and some more from last years GBs are still out in the wild.

Let's see some more cool geekhack originality out here guys! :cool:

I'd love a Skidata GB... maybe with an orange mods extra pack.

Me too! Maybe a store would or could buy a lot, since I would think you can sell them over 1-2 years. I don't know how many Originative had, and how long it took to sell (or not sell...) all the kits.

Not feeling Orangesicle, would love to see Tox if we could hit the MOQ for custom colors. Doesn't seem that tough if we did it through MD again.
It's a good width!  If it's half-width it's too narrow, and full-width is too wide.

Yeah I'm not the hugest fan of MD but it's hard to argue with the sort of numbers that Triumph Adler pulled.
