Bro Caps Therapy
« on: Thu, 21 November 2013, 13:26:53 »
Well since the release of The metal Brobots and All the Brobots in general I feel we need a thread to vent because of these works of art...

Vent all your sadness of missing a Brobot sale here..


Release your woes in this thread folks.

When TechKeys had that Brobot sale, I missed out because my wallet was hacked at that time. :'(

It all depends on the seller, buyer the particular brobot.

Some have went around cost ~$40 others over $100

Mine went for $101, but it was the SmokeBot, so I think it was one of the more sought-after ones...

I got an invoice for the steel ones, but because I bought a keyboard earlier in the day, I was $15 off the bill. So I let another geekhacker to take the order. I've come to find 3d caps aren't my thing, they're nice to look at but annoying to press.

I have overspent this month too.  Couldn't afford a BroBot :(
"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

If the bro himself does end up doing the gold plated brobot i think might just buy it and avoid the possible mark up in the classifieds.

Do brobots get the same kind of mark up like clacks?

For 'Only' 100$ i could get a Gold plated brobot.. Decisions decisions.

I just hope he releases the brass brobot to the public also. I missed the giveaway sadly.

I must collect all the metal brobots. The plastic ones don't exite me as much but all of brobots caps are sexy sauce.

I'm not sure if this is the thread to discuss whether I should choose a Topre bro or a MX bro if I get a chance. I already have a Topre bro. And my MX board are feeling lonely without a bro but these days I don't use MX much anyway. On the other hand, I'm not sure if 2 bro bots looked nice on a HHKB. What say you?

Well, I ended up choosing the MX Gold Brobot and I'm glad I did because BunnyLake does the same and he said that the brass Brobot that he owned was heavy and he thinks the gold would be as well. I don't think HHKB can withstand that weight.
