No petscii is just no go for me.
I was waiting for it for soo long, I think this set without petscii is pointless.

Almost yearly post requesting any updates on SA Retro Petscii re-run. Has anyone heard or know of any updates on this?

I asked SP regarding any progress and the response was "[they] are a long way from completing these and don't have an ETA"

I just find it strange to see a post in March 2020 that says 2-3 months and it will be ready, then further along have radio silence and no updates in 2021 other than no ETA.

Admittedly these are unprecedented times.  :(

Just wanted to revive this thread and post this here, seen on Drop! There needs some support for brown modifiers and alphas to replicate a proper C64 breadbin colorway. If anyone hasn't seen this, please let it be known that this set looks like is going to happen!

I just commented there :)
Commodore logo, petscii, correct colors and full brown/beige kit is a must :)

Voice your opinion here if you want brown mods.  Upvote comments here:

Its done, went on sale, you won't get full brown sets.
Worst thing is there is no Commodore logo cap  :'(

It’s in the Q and A section for some reason. I wish it was more visible but it is what it is.  Should be able to follow my link and see it. Might have to click to expand the comments.

Just received my order from signature plastics. Haven’t ordered from them directly for a couple of years, when did they start packing the keycaps shrinkwrapped like this instead of in bags like they always have done before?

In the past year they’ve had the new plastic packaging for some of their sets. SA Fledgling had it too

Sure makes QCing your sets a lot easier, had a lot of errors with the baggies over the years.

I've been wanting this set since I got into keyboards, but, now I don't even know what I'd put it on. I already have more keysets than keyboards.
Maybe they're waiting for gasmasks and latex to get sexy again.

The world has become a weird place.

Same here. My first custom keyset was DSA Retro. After that I wanted SA Retro for years and years.
And now boom! 10 years andI got it :)
