[GB] KIRA80 & KIRA S

[mathleejj]

Maybe he meant that the boards have been made and we can choose colors as the boards are just before the anodization state?

That would actually be ideal for me.

[Jkush463]

 Thatd be dope i hope its that way, totally forgot is the numpad still coming with the boards like a set as original or nah?

[rioc]

sooo, apparently it's on the CN version of the shop already: http://www.zfrontier.com/m/4790 ??
I hope we get our mails soon.

Oh, CN edition gets a limited edition black copper weight option... that's some nice prioritized treatment for the original GB participants

Not meaning to be upset, I just hope we still get those options too and the serialisation

[kokugatsu]

According to their site, the GB will be open in 5 hours. Hope they didn't forget about us...

Also, there isn't an option to get both extra PCBs and plates atm, seems to be either or.

ah, that makes sense... I got a mail from Alex that he's currently preparing the site for the en.zfrontier website too. I guess they'll be up the same time then.
Really hope we get a chance for that black weight too

That's awesome news, I'm hoping for that black weight as well, looks super nice. Did he mention any time frames or just that he is working on the site?

[kokugatsu]

Seems like there isn't a WK option either, a bit disappointed.

[mathleejj]

It seems like the boards for chinese GB has finished production (4 colors, wkl fixed) / pcb and plate needs production

Alex said that for international GB (the one on en.zfrontier) we will get to choose either wk/wkl layouts and also more colors are offered. (Lead time is expected to be a month and two months max.)

Didn't ask about the back weight.. so i have no infos on that

Lead time is short at least.

I asked about the black weight, but no answer on that yet. Maybe he's checking that with Eve.

EDIT: Yeah, he said he'll talk to EVE about it

[elmo]

Kind of a newbie here (never participated in a group buy and hey: first post here).
Will the GB on zFrontier be open to the public or limited to those who where on the list here?

Thought about combining the Kira with the new SA Symbiosis 2.0 caps.
Would be my first custom keyboard 

[Jkush463]

was just about to ask if i missed the mail or something. well hope it comes through soon.

[rioc]

sooo, Kira80 and Kira-S extras are available, I hope we get our mail for the board soon too. (you can see the available colours on the extras page though)

[Bubblegum]

The priority buy is now active. Got the mail and ordered the board

[Hamel]

It seems like color option of "Space Gray" is gone in the GB. 

Sent Alex from zFrontier about how dark the "Deep Black" would be, but does anyone have any information regarding this color?


EDIT: Got a reply from Alex, for anyone who's wondering what Deep Black would be it would be "black black" as seen in this picture.

[kokugatsu]

Edit: nvm, missed the colours at the bottom of the page.

[Jkush463]

are we still geting kira s or no i dont even see any mention lol

[rioc]

are we still geting kira s or no i dont even see any mention lol

Kira-S will follow shortly according to him

Ordered my Dark Blue kira80 now, PC plate, and lucky number for SN

[Jkush463]

ah i see. super torn between the pearl blue and lavender almost think the lavender wont match anything. well went pearl blue. will probably buy another in the normal gb in red.

pearl blue will sure match godspeed very nicely. Lavender maybe with Violet Tendencies?
I think I'll pair the poseidon blue I went for with either dark solarized or a vintage, beige gmk set (maybe Nautilus or green screen, but I don't think those'll be the best matches)

[schlep]

Submitted my order for Poseidon Blue

Poseidon Blue looks super sick, but I also find it hard to find a matching keysets. Doesn't seem to versatile. (which making me very hard to decide)

[Etherealsound]

Are there any photo differences between pearl blue and Poseidon blue? Which is the blue one pictured on the site?

[mathleejj]

same here... only if I had Godspeed.. I wouldn't hesitate choosing poseidon blue 

[Etherealsound]

So it looks like brass plates won't be offered in the buy. Does anyone know if there is someplace I could acquire a brass plate that would be compatible with this board?

[rioc]

Pearl blue is the light blue. Poseidon the very dark (almost dark gray) blue.
Poseidon will match any beige or gray set for sure.

EDIT: Yeah, he said he'll talk to EVE about it

If you hear any further info, please tell us! I’d like a black weight but might choose another case color if black weight is not possible.

This is all just very strange.  The Kira is only available on the China ZFrontier website and not on the En ZFrontier website https://www.zfrontier.com/m/4790
The accessories are on the English ZFrontier website https://en.zfrontier.com/products/kira-ac

Should anyone on the original groupbuy list be expecting a link to buy from the English ZFrontier site (anything more than just the accessory?)

[Bubblegum]

I was able to pick brass plate as an extra option. Where you get extra PCB and such.

I do see that now. Thanks. Are there any photos of what poseidon looks like? Trying to decide between that and the grey.

Edit: Is this poseidon?

Only that paid get priority and have a special link to the board. According to my email, after 24 hours the buy will open up to the public

The chinese page said it is limited to 66 pieces (according to google translator )
Will the international GB have the same limit or is it higher?

Didn't specify. But at least 50 because they were 50 spots in the original gb

+1 on that. The poseidon blue looks a bit more greenish-blue on the priority GB page (which I think I'd prefer) but if it's more of a navy blue as posted above I think I'll go with the black.

I was thinking the same but I just put in an order for Poseidon.  Hopefully thesiscamper can clarify if its blue or blue/green.

yeah, that's poseidon... these pics are a bit darker lighting compared to the GB Page product pics so it looks more darker blue. with brighter light it looks like it has a very slight greenish hue to it too

I see, they look so different but I guess lighting will do that? I think I'll just stick to grey as I prefer a navy without a green tint to it.

[forevermadrigal]

That's a one off

[rioc]

That's a one off

Ah I see, looked similar enough to assume it's maybe lighting difference

So that "dark navy" board is NOT poseidon blue & NOT offered in current buy?

yes because that was prior to eves involvment.

[forevermadrigal]

Went with the black case, hopefully the lead time isn't too much longer. Was debating putting laser on the poseidon blue, but that might be a stretch. Super stoked!

Mhm? Im actually really confused about Poseidon color... If it’s not the “dark navy” in the pictures (for example the picture of the two boards together) then what color is it? In the color sample squares it looks exactly like that...

Also what color is the plate of the red board? Silver isn’t an option?

Would be good to have confirmation, which pictures are of the EVE boards!

What plate color did you choose? I'm thingking of matching gmk laser too.

I chose pearl blue, but I won't be using the aluminum plate. I got an extra brass plate and I think I'm gonna have another special kind of plate for this board :thinking:

Yeah agreed.  I would prefer the greenish tint but now I'm even more confused 

[coffeeshopcoder]

I got a Red ! It'll hopefully go along with light sets with red accents. Thinking /dev/tty , 9009 and I'll be waiting for Jamon.
Wanted to get the Poseidon blue as well - but very confused about the color. I would have liked the  "navy" blue, but that prototype was before EVE.
I also would have loved to see a green similar to the Kira60 : https://www.instagram.com/p/BfaH1F2gNmA/
