Details

DSS 99˘ is a 40s-oriented keyset, with one robust kit to support a huge variety of 40s and 30s layouts. The kitting should cover any row-stagger and ortho layout (and most columnar-stagger as well) from 13u on down, including 40s with a Gamer Row—feel free to ask on here or Discord (same username) if you want to confirm compatibility with a particular layout. Colormatching is complete (see photo above).

To accompany the base kit, we've partnered with Pseudoku/Asymplex to offer convex DXX minibars (designed to emulate a convex version of DSS R3) in sizes from 1u to 3u, as well as DSS ISO Enter. These keys will be available in two styles: opaque and artisan. The opaque bars will be matched to the alphas, and the opaque ISO Enter will be matched to the accent pink. The artisan versions will be a mix of the alpha cyan, mod green, and accent pink in Pseudoku's dynamic signature style!

KuroTheCrazy:
Aside from the obvious similarities to aesthetic's colors and inspiration, this has some odd choices. Why is the darker green, which is pretty small on the bottle, being used for the alphas color? And why include the 1-6 num keys when only one or two 40s will support it? Should either get rid of them to ease up costs, or add the rest of the numbers to add some coverage for anything with a numpad, which is probably more common in 40s than a half numrow.

I am going to give you 99 cents for a set of this  ;D
