After a long Interest Check (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=79732.0), Berserk is finally available on Kono Store (https://kono.store). Designed by thesiscamper and produced by Maxkey, this is a doubleshot SA profile keycap set that utilizes the new tooling developed for our previous group buy, Lime (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=91690.0).

The base set is priced at $109.99 USD and shipping is auto-calculated based on your address. The Novelties Kit is $24.99.

This group buy began November 22nd, 2017 and will run through December 31st, 2017.

We anticipate beginning production in early January 2018 and will fulfill the keycap orders by late February, early March 2018.

The keycaps will be shipped in trays, included in the price.

To help kick off the group buy, we have also announced a giveaway that is entirely free to enter.

Post by: tassadarforaiur on Sat, 09 December 2017, 18:12:05: giveaway ended already ='-( probably gonna get in on this gb. still regret not getting in on troubled minds. I pulled out last second because massdrop refused to answer questions about what would happen if the iso kit didn't reach minimum.

Post by: LevelSteam on Sun, 10 December 2017, 13:14:40: I keep looking at this and I'm really on the fence about it. I feel like it should be a little more vibrant because I'm worried that when the caps come out they're going to be more on the burgundy side of things.

Did a poll, the darker shade won over the brighter shade.

Anyway, 11 days left! Here's some mock-ups on a NightFox :thumb:

That's fair. If there end up being extras available for sale in the Kono store and it turns out close to the renders I'll probably pick one up.

Post by: Saphieron on Thu, 01 February 2018, 17:54:24: Quick question:
I successfully joined the GB but I seem to have forgotten to write down when we can expect to hear something the next time. I think I remember reading something about march one the kono store page, but that page has been taken down since the GB ended.
Can anyone help me out with what the schedule was?

From what I remember on the Kono web page he ship date was February twenty something. So somewhere in late Feb for sure.

Post by: Saphieron on Sat, 03 February 2018, 04:41:26: I also asked around input clubs discord channel and apparently there was some issues with the Maxkey lime GB. Because of that they delay berserk until this is solved.

From Andrew at input club:
"We are dealing with an enormous support issue with Lime from Maxkey and are going to send out an update that we aren’t beginning production on Berserk until we hear back."

Post by: thesiscamper on Mon, 26 February 2018, 06:20:31: Just an update, most of you know the issue with Lime and it's glossy finish. In light of this, I opted for a matte finish to remove the "blemishes" seen on Maxkey's glossy caps. I have a sample set with me that is glossy, and I'm here to share photos. Please note again that the production caps will be matte.

Through their Taobao account, I don't think they partnered with wither kbdfans or zfrontier.

Last I checked, kono.store is waiting for updates from Maxkey. They're making sure the issues with Lime doesn't happen again.

Spending months to build a red case for this set but after seeing the actual color I'm so disappointed :mad: The actual color look so childish. After Lime, Nuclear and now this rubbish I'll never trust Maxkey render again :mad:
Title: Re: [GB] Maxkey Berserk SA - Available worldwide at Kono (Open)
Post by: LevelSteam on Thu, 05 April 2018, 17:13:54: The actual color is kind of hard to photograph. I initially sat out the group buy over skepticism about it, but it turned out to be a really nice vibrant red, just like Unit 02 :)

I'll post pics of my set later tonight once I get it on my Code.
Title: Re: [GB] Maxkey Berserk SA - Available worldwide at Kono (Open)
Post by: LevelSteam on Thu, 05 April 2018, 20:31:05: Got a semi-decent picture, but it's really hard to capture just how vibrant this set is in incandescent lighting. Either the whites are accurate and the reds are way off or it's the opposite.

Post by: Saphieron on Thu, 12 April 2018, 06:38:09: I got my set yesterday night, and i also struggle to take a good picture of it.

It is ABSOLUTELY gorgeous. I have not been that happy about a keyset ever. the design is also brilliant

In that regard, @thesiscamper: thank you very much for designing this set. Brilliant work

Post by: isioisi on Tue, 29 October 2019, 17:03:00: Hey guys, I' really really hoping someone can help me here. I snapdecisioned getting onto the second round of group buys for Berserk, but in my rush I now realize I didn't add the non-standard kit to the cart.

Cut to now, after I've sorted a board and case, and realising I'm going to need those non standard keys. Specifically, these ones:

Is there anyone out there who has these keys lying around unused, and if so can I please buy them off you? I'm desperate at this point D:
