So excited for this to run along with CA66 in dark red. Do you think there’s any possibility for split spacebars like you’d have in the original 40s kit. Would like to do 2.25 and 2.75 if possible.

Unfortunately, no, that's not going to be a possibility. I'm sorry!

Award for best set with the worst name!

Thank you! IK the name isn't the best, but can't go around changing it now

As far as updates go, we're going to have this in a matte finish. Also, *don't* quote me on this, but I wouldn't be surprised if this set was sub 90.

Thanks for the update! Guess I’ll be going with a full spacebar but at least that will look cleaner. A matte finish sounds interesting! Does that mean it’ll be textured or just have some different type of finish that makes it matte?

I won’t expect it but a sub $90 price tag would be amazing.

Push them again haha. Damn I can't wait to pick up a set myself. Personally would love to see it manufactured by SP, but it is what it is and I would still join for a set.

Definitely digging the hiragana on a SA profile. Of this could be made by SP it would be so dope (and it would be the first SA with new legend to my knowledge isn’t it?)

I just want to know when this set is going to run in general (I’m all for Maxkey). Input Club keeps teasing without any indication as to when this is going to happen!

Honestly, me too!

I'm trying to get this started ASAP. :)

Also, in regards to maxkey quality- honestly, it's pretty good as of the moment. (calm depths yall!)

Yeah they’ve really upped their game which is nice to see. A competitive SA profile is really needed. Now they need to ensure their QC and maybe expand their kit options and we’ll really have a viable choice.

Maybe I’ll go bug Andrew again

If there's compatibility for CA66 and/or any standard 65% layout, I am all in for this. SP or Maxkey, just doesn't matter to me.

Let's make it happen please!

The kit was updated on one of the more recent pages. I can understand why people would want it from SP but I think the lower price point and the quicker timeline outweigh the benefits of SP. Plus the base kit from Maxkey is pretty good for compatibility on more traditional layouts.

Sorry, but I can't change the kit now. Also, the mold fees would be exorbitantly expensive if it was just the one key.

Here's the kit again



I have not ruled out the possibility of a SP run later. However, such a run, if it were to take place, would be in the far future.

Thanks for the update. Will probably wait out this round and patiently wait for the 2nd round where the manufacturing is done through SP. Best of luck with the GB though!

Saw the email! Super pumped! However, have you seen the new renders? The alphas especially seem really light compared to earlier renderings and the colours you were basing off of. Any thoughts on that?

Was really worried the set would turn out too bright, like the new render. This is reassuring, however. Let's go SA Royalty!

Hey, I just looked at the renders on kono. (I was looking at the ones jan shared with me direct because I assumed they put those ones up) I'm sorry, I had access to a different version and I can absolutely tell you that that is not what the sets will look like.

These are the renders I was looking at:

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1b-l-gYz7mgYqkKGrO-BgPSgbboNE4g3u?usp=sharing

They have updated lighting.

I'm not sure why the renders at kono turned out like that, but i'm really sorry for the misunderstanding and I'll fix that as soon as possible.

The flat render (kle render) is just to show which keycaps are in the kit. The 3D render arrows are how they will look in final product. Take a look at the Maxkey arrow legend for other sets and you’ll see that they’re the same as the 3D renders.

Okay well just let me know if I need to buy more sets! sounds like we’re doing pretty good though considering it just started and already halfway there.
