Post by: nevin on Thu, 19 September 2019, 10:57:16: yeah, love the look of the set, love the color, but still can't get myself to spend that much on keycaps (regardless of how good they are). was a big fan of laser too, but couldn't convince myself to join that GB either.

After an exhaustive internet search, it seems there is no definitive definition of Lego red. Search results versus KLE's definition of P3:

I don't really want to add any more group buys to the queue at this time until GMK lead times have started to noticeably get shorter (e.g. 6-8 months instead of 12). The same goes for ASCII R2.

Post by: Oblotzky on Wed, 24 May 2023, 04:50:05: Tentative GB month for GMK CYL Crimson Cadet II is October 2023. (CYL indicates Cylindrical profile aka Cherry profile, as MTNU is kicking off production at GMK soon the two need to be differentiated). More info as we get closer to that date. Additionally, GMK CYL Royal Cadet will run alongside it, which is a purple / violet version of the set using a color sample from Monokai Material legend matching that was discarded from that project.

Post by: Neely_12 on Wed, 24 May 2023, 08:10:08: Hype but can we please not use CYL as the designation. Just call it GMK Cherry and GMK MTNU

Edit: Can we also get the option like Space Cadet to get icon mods

The CYL tag was decided by GMK.

Kitting for Crimson Cadet II and Royal Cadet will likely be identical, a Base Kit + Symbols kit for each. Keeping things condensed as sales are not as favorable as 2021 / 2022.
