Wished pricing was similar to colorchrome, but i still think 130 is fair for the compatibility.
I hope GB goes smoothly and everything reaches MOQ :thumb:

Perhaps it's been asked before:

In the "Comrad" kit, which legends (the black or the red) are doubleshot and which are printed?

Absolute must get. Even if you already own Minimal, WoB, these legends are way less janky and the kitting is superb. Great set from a wonderful runner!

Hey! :) The MOQ for the kits are 500 for base, and 100 for all the other kits, as it looks now 1 week into the GB most kits are looking good :thumb: 40s and comrad could definitely do with some help.

Reading about the monochrome r2 i had a lot of short questions. I thought this might the right place to ask even tho it is a little bit late. Still hoping to get answers...

1) The base kit and board renders show different typefaces/fonts. Just to confirm: I assume that GMK will use the same cherry tools and with that the cherry font like on most other GMK sets?
2) Are these ABS doubleshot keycaps?
3) The monochrome r1 did not have the red accent pieces. Is there a specific reason why the color RO2 was picked?
4) What was the motivation for the r2?

Thanks for reading my weird questions! :D

1: Yes.
2: Yes.
3: It maches the sublegends of the comrad kit + I like red as an accent color, and it is a stock GMK color.
4: The original GB ran in September 2018, it did not sell well(neither did r2 for that matter) - and therefor are not easy to come by at the secondhand market anymore, I wanted to bring it back, and give it a few updates kitting wise.

I was looking for a classic set and saw that you can still pre-order from some vendors. I might try my luck.

I am chasing lead vendor for the latest from GMK, last I heard was back in May that it was still scheduled for q4 2022, but I think it's safe to say that's not gonna happen. I will update here as soon as I hear back!

Reading about the monochrome r2 i had a lot of short questions. I thought this might the right place to ask even tho it is a little bit late. Still hoping to get answers...

1) The base kit and board renders show different typefaces/fonts. Just to confirm: I assume that GMK will use the same cherry tools and with that the cherry font like on most other GMK sets?
2) Are these ABS doubleshot keycaps?
3) The monochrome r1 did not have the red accent pieces. Is there a specific reason why the color RO2 was picked?
4) What was the motivation for the r2?

Thanks for reading my weird questions! :D

1: Yes.
2: Yes.
3: It maches the sublegends of the comrad kit + I like red as an accent color, and it is a stock GMK color.
4: The original GB ran in September 2018, it did not sell well(neither did r2 for that matter) - and therefor are not easy to come by at the secondhand market anymore, I wanted to bring it back, and give it a few updates kitting wise.

I think its pretty interesting how the GB's didn't sell well considering how sought after the kit can be. Also I wanted to ask if there have been any updates since the last post? I don't want to nag but if anything new has come up I'd love to know.

Hi everyone!

A small 'non-update',

GMK came back to MKBEU(lead vendor), and advised that GMK Monochrome R2 wont ship in 2022, GMK advised MKBEU that they would know more about the timeline in December.. I will chase them again then.

Is there any chance you could chase them on this? I am still waiting for my set from MKBEU... I tried asking on their discord but did not get a response :(

Same here. Almost 2 years of waiting for my set in Ukraine (ordered on funkeys).

Hi guys, I am very sorry for your wait.. I am trying to push MKBEU for an update through my channels but so far I know just as little as everyone else.. As soon as I hear back from them I will update this thread

Yeah same here, radio silence to my email inquiries as well.

The updates page (http://calendar.mykeyboard.eu/updates/) says "Shipping to customers in June at the latest.". I'm not sure which calendar Mykeyboard is using, but mine says August already.

Probably the last time I'm ordering anything from MYKB. :( It's especially infuriating because these seem to be in stock on some other stores. So I should have just waited for these "extras" to be sold normally instead of participating in the group buy, and I would have gotten my set potentially faster.

Good morning!

I am very sorry for the lack of updates from MKBEU, I tried reaching out to them last week through their regular 'community support' channel on their discord server, and were directed to their calendar which says it's expected to be with them in Q4 2023..

https://calendar.mykeyboard.eu/updates/

The information was last updated 17th of August..

2,5 year waiting anniversary today!

(https://i.mstk.eu/N_ytt_kuva_2023-12-30_013040.png)

My new year's resolution is to not participate in any GBs using MyKeyboard as the EU vendor :D

With posts like these: https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/181oc51/vendor_mykeyboard_owes_me_hundreds_of_dollars_and/ it's not looking really good...

I am still waiting for my set too from mykeyboard.eu. "Luckily" this is the only set I have ordered with them, but I will obviously not use them ever again. I think it's unlikely they will send anything out, they have not posted any updates in their discord since November last year.
