All renders are made by: its.hymn

To-Do List:
Round 2 samples (In process)
Send prototype unit to content creator for build and review content
Announce sale date



Updates 2022-06-09
Round 1 of prototypes have been made and I have to say they look amazing!
We made changes while waiting for the prototypes to be made, here are the changes we made:

• We changed the mounting system and added a leafspring mounting system.
• We added a bridge at the space bar on the plate so that the hotswap PCB will work.

R2 Prototypes are ordered

We also confirmed the price and MOQ
The keyboard price will be: 450$ and the MOQ: 500.

(Photos of the first round of prototypes will soon be updated on the IC)

The front engraving will remain, but there will also be option to remove it when you create your order.


Updates 2022-08-02
R2 Prototypes are made and everythings works perfect! (We had to change the PC plate version cutouts, it had to much flex. This is already fixed.)

We are waiting for the package to be done, this should only take a few more days.
Kbdfans will send one prototype to me and one to Taeha Types for content.

Hello! I never stole anything, this is resolved between me and Hali.
Hali and I used the same manufacturer, this manufacturer sent me Halis files without my knowledge, they told me to use it as a template to create my own keyboard.
Everything has changed and there is nothing copied from Hali.

Thanks for bringing it up  :thumb:

I was asking them a question. In the old one, it appeared to be the designer committing theft of the files. Also ironic you say to keep my negativity out for asking, when you seem to be quite negative in your response. The irony!

Hello! And thank you for taking time to comment.

We found japanese very appealing when we designed the keyboard. We trying to offer a japanese theme and the engraving in japanese fits very well with that idea.

Your request depends on taste and we cannot change everything to fit everyones taste im afraid.

Have a good day!

You should offer ISO layout for the keyboard esp. since you have an ISO enter in the keycaps...

Hi, I'm very sorry but we decided not to offer ISO layout for the keyboard. The keycaps offer both versions.
The keycaps will not be included as a package with the keyboard, which means that some people may want to buy the keycaps for other types of keyboards.

the demon face+characters+akuma. It’s just a bit much. I personally like simplicity. Perhaps if it didn’t say akuma or didn’t have the characters or didn’t have the demon engraving, it would be more pleasant. Having all three is just a bit much for me.

Shame about lack of ISO considering the novelties have a lovely design.

Having forced a sublegend base kit and then including an international kit without any sublegends absolutely destroys the look of the kit fwiw. Latin alphas would help a lot and keep the majority of the general theme for use on boards other than this one.

The version Alexotos recived is purple. Its a very dark purple.
The renders is not 100% accurate we used the sa.e colour code but light can change the look alot. I belive Alexotos will upload a picture of the purple prototype when he have time. 👍

Oh Thank god, I was worried that, it was the gray. But your answer also not confidence inspiring, are you saying that you don’t know if the gray will be close to the render or not? What about the red? The one picture looks darker than the render. It doesn’t look fire hydrant red like render does.

Could you convince kbdfans to make it so we can oversee extra brass weights? For example I want to buy the black mirror weight as extra.

Oh yes. So it’s minimum 500? On the kbd site it says „QTY : limited item with 500 units MAX“ which for me means only 500 will be sold.

We do not have a prototype of the red, this is only renders.
We do have prototype of the Black and purple.
The purple is the version which was sent to Alexotos.
The black you can see pictures in the beginning of this threat (pictures taken by KBDfans)

The other colours are renders.
I will talk with kbdfans and see if i can get the colour codes that shows exacly which colours we are going to use.
The purple is RAL 300 20 10.

This colour can look slightly different in real life depending on light, anodize and so on.
All colours exept the purple are colours which KBDfans already tested. The purple was custom made.

I hope this makes it abit more clear for you.
And im sorry i cant give you real pictures of all the colours.

Both me and them, we decided to work together on this to make it the best possible.
Renders will be updated with better accurate colours.
Kbdfans have some colours in hand which are tested and used. Red and blue for example is tested and used by them.
Gray will have a slightly tone change compare to kbdfans colours, The purple is nothing from their original colours.
Sorry for confusion.

R2 Prototypes are made and everythings works perfect! (We had to change the PC plate version cutouts, it had to much flex. This is already fixed.)

We are waiting for the package to be done, this should only take a few more days.
Kbdfans will send one prototype to me and one to Taeha Types for content.

I've joined GB and bought a purple one, but I'm still curious about this keyboard review.
I have searched on various platforms, but couldn't find anyone who reviewed this keyboard other than Alexotos. (or maybe I missed something)
can you provide timeline info when and who streamers will review this keyboard.

thanks

The keycaps and mousepad is in a seperated GB

Another dumb question, but i didnt see the group buy dates for opening or have they not be announced yet?
The keycaps have not been announced yet, we had to do some updates and changes on the set to fit the mold.
The updates are done and we working on renders to showcase it.
New renders can be found on the post abow.

Thank you

€680 for a keyboard that was available for $450, with a forced colorway, a forced layout and a plastic plate?

Sorry for my ignorance as I am new here, but did the Akuma keycaps already release or have they yet to release? Also, if they have released will there be another round? I am in LOVE with the Akuma keycaps. That purple and burnt orangey thing going on is incredible!! Thanks in advance!
