Loving the RAMA, will definitely grab one. Also it seems like Ina is aware of this kit since via her comments in a recentish stream.

Really? Which stream is it? or what did she say?

This will be my first group buy and for my first build and mechanical keyboard. Rather excited since this is hitting so many of my firsts. I will probably have to find a cheap placeholder set of keycaps while I wait for these because these Group Buys tend to take some months before they ship right? Like around half a year, give or take a couple months, right?

With current GMK fulfillment times you can expect 1 year+

More like 1-1.5 years given the current situation LOL.
Definitely recommend getting a temporary set like epbt or something.

Added a second RAMA in E-White!
As for the GB date, we're currently still waiting for quotes to come, so there will be no GB till then, hopefully it will be on the second half of this month but I can't promise anything. if you wanna be notified when it goes live you can fill out the Email Form!

Seeking other GBs, GMK is currently quoting ~43w. Sadly it is a lot of time and you'd be better with something as placeholder

Re: [IC] GMK Tako | New Collabs | Discord Server

Well, we still have no quotes from GMK and I found myself in having to revisit the novelties. I'm removing couple of them and adding other ones. The deskmat will also change.
At this point I'm hoping for a July GB, I made a Discord Server for the ones interested.
I'm also pleased to announce there will be a collaboration with Amusing Atelier and Melonkeys for resin artisans! More info on those quite soon.

Hope this isn't a dumb question, but. . .   Are GMK mini-spacebars the real thing with a rounded spacebar profile, or are they just. . .  blank Shift keys?  I've tried those before, but the sharp edge is not comfortable to bash with the side of my thumb.

I am pretty dedicated to my split spacebar layouts, and if GMK are now turning out "real" 2.25u and 2.75u spacebars, I'll jump on that.

Not sure on when, but GMK definitely created convex mini-bars molds at one point, so yes they're convex

Love the colorway, though the novelties are kinda icky. Will probably opt for the base kit.
