Looks really nice
What is the weight (approx)?
This looks to be ANSI only, will there be an ISO plate / PCB option?
is there any more information on the PCB such as lighting etc?
Thank you

Thank you

Total Weight is 1.25kgs
Fixed Layout.
PCB for Limited Edition GB will be Solder Only but a Kailh Hotswap version will be available in the March GB.
No lighting for the PCB as we wanted to keep it clean.
