We go live on Friday, an E-Mail should go out later today.

Please note that Colevrak is being considered, but not yet guaranteed. CK is trying to work out favorable pricing for both sides.
Wooooooooo my first and probably only GMK set so stoked

Looks like we're going through with the Colevrak kit. You guys better be ready to keep your promises, it's 99$ at 100 units due to more keys and 40 new legend plates. I'll also post renders later (probably tomorrow) of how these two layouts will look like. Please note that the 1.75 Backspace is 'missing' on purpose, use the Rub Out keys (stepped and non-stepped available) from the Base kit.

Yes, you can see the drop about to go live, including all pricing, here.

Question: on some renders it looks like the alpha legend color is sort of yellowish while the legends on the mods and blue alphas look more like white (cp). Is this correct?
Also, because it has an influence on what i‘ll buy in the space cadet run, will red cadet be all red in the base set or will it be grey/red like space cadet is grey/blue?

#1 illusion, the color of the legends is identical on all keys in my legend files.
#2 I am hesitant to answer because I truly do not know at this point. if crimson cadet is offered, there MIGHT be a separate gray alphas kit availabe. but it MIGHT also not be. I don't even know how well this version will perform, so to say what kits I want to offer with an even yet unknown vendor is really a shot in the dark.

The intention of the question was more or less, will i end up with two grey alpha sets laying around collecting dust, so i'm pretty relieved after this answer :)
To #1, i got a new monitor and didn't fiddle around with the settings sorry... i assume it's white then?!  :rolleyes: 
Thx and glwgb .. hope we hit the 1k base and 250 blue alphas :>

IIRC, it is off-white, to give it something of a "vintage", slightly used look.

Gonna close this thread in about an hour when the drop is live, submitting GB thread now

also, color samples! GR9 is the same that was used for GMK Oblivion alphas, the legend color will be different though. Space Cadet will be using the off-white and slightly creamy/warm color shown below. Black is just CR from the standard GMK colors
