HHKB Keysets; Is it True?
« on: Fri, 28 October 2016, 19:54:56 »
Someone on this forum mentioned that HHKB printed/non-printed keysets are no longer being manufactured.  Is this true?  If so, why?

I think the HHKB replacement keysets are still being manufactured. Notably, Elitekeyboards still has stock of them.

However, the multicolor replacement sets for Realforce keyboards (Such as the pink printed set on my Realforce) are NOT being manufactured anymore. I can't remember the specific reason for this (or if one was ever mentioned), but I think it had to do with the market being too small.

Oh!  Maybe that was my misunderstanding, I forgot which thread I saw what I thought was what I stated, but it may have been what you just said instead (and it may have been you  :)).   That's a relief, though, but it's a shame for RF owners, I have yet to have the opportunity to get one of their boards, but I'd sure be interested in the multi-color sets if they were to continue selling them.

I was considering trying to get in contact with Topre Co. about mass ordering a certain color set. I don't know if I have the time/energy to run a GB on that scale right now, but it might be worth investigating for an inclined individual.

Best color, and probably the one I'd try and run. I have it already, but I want everyone to have it.

EDIT: oh my god the number of PMs i got offering to buy my set...

Agreed, I feel the same way.


Although red and blue are pretty great as well.

Nice looking good! Pink still appears every so often but less and less these days.

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Has anyone tried to do this before? I wonder what's the MOQ if they agree to make these sets again. They still have the printed red, orange, yellow, blue and white sets available on amazon jp though

AFAIK Nobody has tried it yet. Those that are still available are probably deadstock.

There is a small but dedicated market for custom Topre keycap sets - I'm hoping a manufacturer somewhere will step up and make some.

Hey Rowdy looks like this site still has yellow sets in stock (and some other colours too). I figured you might be interested.

I think JChan has been working on hhkb sets. Not sure if he's apart of GH or if I'm even right.  But I think it's JChan

He is.
yes.. not losing my mind. I also have verification from Jchan, it's a wip.

There is a small but dedicated market for custom Topre keycap sets - I'm hoping a manufacturer somewhere will step up and make some.

Hey Rowdy looks like this site still has yellow sets in stock (and some other colours too). I figured you might be interested.

Edit: Oops sorry, I forgot to include the link  :D. http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/archisite/item/aa1046200/?s-id=borderless_browsehist_en

"(an isolated island is excluded)" - aww, and I really wanted an isolated island too.

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada
