I quite like the idea of only one per person. It makes things a little more personal and special. Normally I prefer to have larger runs of things (I'm looking at you LZ-S) but for something like this, it's cool. It's exactly like when companies do like limited edition whatever when they celebrate their milestones.

I know I just like 'collecting' key chains and key pullers!!

Nope. I'm just saying I like the idea of a limited edition run.

Also if you want us to read that, you might want to make it not size 2 font :P

Yes, it is going to be like sports cars, although the model is same, this cosmetic variant will be of limited numbers.

It is size 4. :P

I got a prototype done today, however the laser cutter destroyed it somehow by glowing some hot gas of the cut acrylic and making wired heat patterns  :mad:

However it did allow me to see if everything fit, and made sense.

I couldn't get engraving done as that wasn't working, however I did get it laser marked, and I have to say, to certain extent I like it better for the given small design, atleast for the name.

I'll post comparison pictures.

You will get a simple threaded lanyward with dustplug, and also a snake chain with keyring.

Pricing would be $200 for 100, excluding shipping and paypal.

Oh gosh, I thought that said $200 for 1 at first!  That pricing sounds completely reasonable and I don't think anyone will argue against it.  Sounds great!  Can't wait for some pictures!   :)

What it means, is it will cost $200 for production of 100 units, thus if we get 50 orders it would be $4 each, and the remaining 50 will got to the geekhack store (Didn't mention that earlier, oops), obviously they won't be personalized but will have the limited run color combination and the 6 at the back.
