[IC] wilba.tech Thermal - PREORDER NOW

[Emir]

This board is so sexy, I don't know what it is about it - but it's charming me!

[Wilba]

Yeah I would also life that, but on his discord he had said no more anodized colors. These colors he has released are final.

  I had high hopes that this was going to be my first and only navy blue keeb when I first saw this

Show Image

I'm aware that there's a number of other blue boards out there but I made a pass on them all for this :(

While this IC is running, still hoping you could consider deep navy blue again, wilba!

I would like to offer more colors, but I am trying to optimize for price, and also use a "palette" for each round (assuming this is popular enough to even reach MOQ for one round!)

So a navy blue Thermal might happen one day, perhaps after GMK Striker? Who knows...

[Xynerorias]

I'm happy
My wallet not so much

A unique board like this deserves my money. Sign me up!!

[sJ1N]

absolutely love the heatsink-esque sides and they should add some nice variety/customization

Any estimate for price now? :)

Very understandable, thank you for sharing your thoughts. And eagerly waiting for that day to come!

Depends on how you bucket colors, but I will oblige that you are correct about it most specifically being rose gold.

Does plate color matter that much? I guess maybe for this one as the plat extends to the middle of the sandwich?

Plate color matters. This round of thermal has a courageous lineup of red, black, and silver and you can see in the OP how Wilba wants to play with those three colors. It looks refreshing to me.

That's true. I guess typically they dont as much, but for this one it does very much!

I agree. Plate color shows through. Keyboards at this level are more than just tools; they're pretty much functional works of art.
I personally am looking forward to the black plate.

Thermal's plate design is not a bug, it's a feature.

I wonder if this keyboard will sound different than other keebs...

The sound of courage, innovation, benchmark, and equilibrium.

[steezkeez]

I didn't know I needed this until now...

[Jaxxstatic]

So this is going to sound like a giant SKCM blue Alps switch with every keypress, right?
Just joking, but if it actually does... yes, please.

Will brass plates be an option?

[Wilba]

Will brass plates be an option?

I am keeping the number of options small to make this simple, and also the design is better suited to aluminum. Brass plates might be available in a later group buy, perhaps...

Ohhh that’s nice like an extra plate by itself with more color

I'd also prefer a brass plate. But you said you'd release plate files later huh?

Definitely, I will support anyone who wants to make their own plate for different layouts, material, colors, etc.

Love the look and color choices of this keyboard.  If I can swing it I'd love to try and pick one up.

Any ballpark estimates for a date?  Zeal is Canadian I believe?  I'd normally be a little more indecisive about dropping $$ on another keyboard but it looks awesome and no duty tax would be a nice win.

Also would like to know the estimated price. Very interested in this board.

Agh! I really hope I can afford it!

I swear I like this more and more every time I look at it... Especially like the red with Jamón and Pata Negra accents. Might have to also try it with Red Cadet later this year!

Did anyone else ever own a Sega Master System?  The renders remind me of that console, nostalgia!
