BAH!  Part-timer - I was back on the 27th... and with 25th+26th being Tuesday+ Wednesday, they'd have been my days off anyway.  Sucks to be me  :rolleyes:

Things are moving along, sorry we have not been as good of keeping update.
Latest is GMK is making sure they can get all the colors of plastic granulate we have requested. Once that comes through we will move on to sample phase. Once that is approved buy will begin. Probably looking at mid to late February.

Mid to late Feb is when the orders are estimated to close?

Yes, as a rough estimate assuming things stay on track.

If they're closing mid-late Feb, I suspect there's going to be a GB going up like yesterday?  Cause it is the 24th and all.

GMK is still waiting for one color to arrive. Then there is still sample, just to make sure everything is good to go. Sorry for delay, but it will be nice to have chance to approve the real deal and have photos of exactly what is being ordered 100% when starting the ordering for a change.

Still wating on that damn color to arrive... I guess our special order colors are more tricky than I expected.

All of them, except white and black. The magenta is what is caused the long delay but they say it should be in next week. Then I will get some samples done and sent to me for approval and we will be ready to roll.

I have just received email letting me know samples are shipping next week. Assuming everything looks good when I receive them I expect to finally get this moved into groupbuy in the next month for sure.

Awesome.  I definitely want a set of those CMY mods.  Anyone have a picture of what the textless legends look like?  I mean, they aren't just blanks (DanGWanG stated in his post that they will have black legends), so... I'm assuming the shift is the wide arrow outline, but what about the rest?

Offline IvanIvanovich

Control and Alt are still same, there is not symbol for them just text. Just arrow for the shift, not text. So just like the white on purple mock up in the op.

I will get everything up really soon to start the buy phase. Just a few final details to make sure on.

We NEED an EU partner for this. EU partner will have big responsibility so do not volunteer if you won't have plenty of time. Responsibility will be to receive the entire shipment initially from GMK, remove keys, sort pack and mail all EU orders, then forward the remaining keys in bulk to me in USA. Additionally, you may also be needed to receive total payments from order payment collection and forward the payment to GMK via bank transfer.

WTB Mockup help, templates, etc.  Lysol and I are still really crunched for time and need a little assistance for developing mockups for the sets in the OP.  Most of the text for the GB is ready to go, just need some visual pull =)  Any help is appreciated and can be compensated for their time.

I can help.  Are you looking for anything prettier than this:

Sam, About the layout similar to the Poker, does it really work as the legends indicated? What keyboard is it for? Is there a chance to get keycaps printed like that? How much they may be? Thank you in advance for your answers.

Yeah, I know, I was googling "GMK Purple", when I found this thread and the purple arrows, so were they ever produced for GB or just sample?

They were definitely never in the GB, I know that much.
It's a good width!  If it's half-width it's too narrow, and full-width is too wide.
