I will also be tweaking the SPECIALTY kit ever so slightly to better support WhiteFox, TADA68, Red Scarf 68, and similar boards which have a vertical row of 1u keys on the far right.

Wait is the drop confirmed for December? Last I heard it was a possibility...

Well, if you can, you can add support for VE.As with a single blank 2.75u row3 key (assuming the ergodox keys are 1.75u blanks)

He's saying that the Backspace key in Dvorak&Colemak kit should be 1.75u instead of 2u, which OP is aware of by now. Has nothing to do with the legend.

As you are expanding the sets (Thanks for Colemak BTW) Would you consider adding the extra row to the numpad for us special people with an external numpad?

Always worth asking :)

Thanks

I believe zslane mentioned receiving confirmation from MassDrop on a December launch for the sets.

Maybe you should edit the title or the OP. It might even help some people avoid missing the drop.

True, it was reported a while back.  I hadn't meant anything negative or snarky in the comment, just meant as a factual answer was all.

I know it may be to late to ask now, but is there any chance you add a planck/atomic kit?
I think the colors will be really cool on a planck.

From what I know it's because its not perfectly symmetrical. I'm looking at various pictures right now though and it seems to be, but I very much remember seeing a post where someone pointed out that his Z was flipped on a R3 board and it was indeed visible, but maybe I remember incorrectly and it was the X or so. I'll have my Nantucked soon and will see for myself if I will be dropping it from my set or not.

That was my theory too, except then I tested that theory with PuLsE. I took the Z keycap, rotated it 180 degrees and put it in place of the Y, and it looked perfect.

Is there an offical answer from massdrop about what happens when child deals don't make their MOQ?  I purchased Royal Navy and one kit did not meet MOQ so there was an option to pay more for that child set to be made.  Does Massdrop do that as well?

Just installed Nantucket on my board and closely inspected the Z key, it's definitely symmetrical and I'll be dropping it from my International kit.

Personally I don't see why this set would need novelty icons, it's kept very classic with almost text only. Then again I haven't seen what someone might come up with.

Yes , I really understood the original purpose of this set.
I don't attempt to change zslane's mind, the kits and the color matching is good enough.

I have old quotes from late last year, but nothing for the latest kits. Besides, kit pricing is something MassDrop, not I, negotiates with SP. They are awaiting that information as we speak.

Oh wow, I hadn't even looked at the purchase count.  I was not expecting that low a count, honestly.  Lots of calls for SA in the comments, I see.  I'm wondering if they're going to try extending it or just let it relaunch at some future point.

With 1965 and XDA in GB, Dasher imminent, GMK Honeywell likely, and GMK >Terminal_, GMK Nautilus, and Classic Space showing such strong ICs, there's a lot of competition. And those are just the GBs I'm interested in... I'm sure there are others.

Honeywell is another one where the colors are only half the story. Without high-profile spherical keycaps, it doesn't really deserve to be called Honeywell, IMO.
