For sale is a complete set of Matt3o's Skull Squadron DSA keyset, produced by Signature Plastics through their Pimp My Keyboard website.
While I love this keyset I am downsizing my collection of keycaps and mechanical keyboards due to a move. Never used, just taken from the packaging because I enjoy shooting pictures of it.

This is the limited edition keyset inspired by the popular anime series Macross (aka Robotech). A later run on Massdrop was produced in DCS-profile but lacked many of the novelty keycaps such as the the different logos and U.N.SPACY 001/VF-1S capslock/short-right shift key.

The DSA profile is a rowless profile, meaning you can put keys on virtually any place on the keyboard and enables alternative layouts such as Dvorak and Colemak.
As such it fits virtually any keyboard including, but not limited to:
Fullsize, Tenkeyless (TKL), 75%, 60%, 40%, G80-1800, Leopold FC660M and many more.

Keyset includes:
TKL Base set (Incl. 6.25x spacebar)
Numpad kit
ISO Kit
Boring Joe kit
Additional Modifier kit
Black stripe 60% kit
6x spacebar
7x spacebar
SP 'Thank You' keys
Original storage box

Specs:
Material: Double-shot ABS
Profile: DSA (sperical top) rowless profile
Condition: New unused (only mounted for pictures) See the close up picture to see the texture on often used keys like WASD and the spacebar. Storage box has a few bumps and bruises.
Mount: Cherry MX
Color codes: GX (Dark grey), WA (White), YCF (Yellow), RA (Red)

I remember watching Macross Frontier after watching Macross 7 + 7 Dynamite and seeing a scene where Ozma Lee drives his Lancia Delta while blaring Fire Bomber! over the speakers. Really cool nod to the old show.

Still not sure which one of those two from the Macross series has the best music but it stuck with me for some reason.

+1 for the nod in the original SDF Macross of Roy Fokker to the former Dutch airplane manufacturer. :)

This was the best color scheme ever produced. Too bad it was DSA... sold my set pretty quick after I got it since I can't type on a flat profile very well.

Alright I'm feeling a bit under the weather today so I'm heading off to bed. I'll see the winners in the morning.

Happy bidding. :)
