Picked mine up from the post. Love them. Now I'm waiting on a Ver.B that should be here next week; I'm pretty sure that will be where these want to live.

Thanks for making these happen.

Looks good but you maybe overdid the editing a little, it really looks just like a render.

Side note: I CAN'T WAIT FOR MY SET TO ARRIVE, let's hope the shipping companies aren't sleeping this week (also, no scratches pliz)!

Sorry, the giveaway was supposed to be up by now, but someone decided to start doing some pointless work and turned off the router a few hours ago and what looks like will be a few hours more.

I'm posting this from my phone.  Unfortunately I can't set up the doc from my phone.

Just to clarify, and for my peace of mind, being in Australia I don't have my set yet, so I included a screen shot of my paypal invoice with my shipping address, but couldn't find one with my paypal email, hope that's going to be fine?

Cheers mate, thanks again for this, both to you and ETF <3

Group buy exclusive artisans/stickers are always so special and just being able to participate makes u feel closer to the project. Having been interested from the day that nubbs introduced it, I love all the personal touches -- GMK Skeletor was a success on all fronts.  :thumb:

Wanted to say how much I agree with this. Great communication from beginning to end, and if nothing else, that would have made for an awesome GB right there - but then the stickers and the contest made buyers feel even more apart of something. It really is the best GB I have ever been part of.

Skeletor was so successful that it's probably worth to check interest for international kits.

I think that Skeletor just wasn't sold enough for that, we need at least 150 buyers for an international kit and I don't think that that seems realistic. I don't know how many sets were actually sold,but looking at Godspeed SA, which sold well over one thousand sets (just looking at the modifiers and the TKL set) but only sold 37 UK kits and 48 Norde kits it seems pretty unlikely that Skeletor would hit 150 orders for an International addon.

How about an extra addon kit? Such as R5 mods?

As far as I'm concerned, production is run and done.  UK ISO was built in so people with ISO would not have blanks and would have one of the more common ISO layouts and R5 is a garbage profile that has no matching space bar and only really works with winkeyless.

Awesome set and terrific artisan giveaway, entered and fingers crossed. Gem of a project start to finish- thanks very much to everyone involved! Pretty sure I'm blindly in for whatever you do next. :)

Unexpected benefit of this set... My office neighbor is a big He-Man fan. GMK Skeletor could be his gateway drug into mk's, he's lusting badly. Nicely done, folks!

I just pasted in my tracking number, I figured based on ship date, and departing location it would verify that I had ordered Skeletor. If I need to take a screen shot of my invoice or something else for the giveaway, let me know.

I have a cyan case coming too actually - tracking says Saturday. Once I get it together (hopefully Saturday as well), I'll toss up a pic for you...

Looks great on that neutral silver. Colors really pop.

Makes me cringe to think of buying a keyboard to match a keyset, but this is one beautiful set.

Thanks. Its does look pretty good.. I just feel like it might better suit a Black case. Lets see if it grows on me! Usually when I put a keyset on a board that just 'works' for me I feel a moment of Nirvana... this one did not hit that Nirvana spot.

Its probably because you have great taste in keyboards ;)  Yep.. on order for the ZZ96 and TK78.. both really delayed... my Blackbird is in the country though, just waiting on delivery! Also recently received the TX-CP which arrived super fast and joined in on both Massdrop Red Scarf boards. Not usually into tiny boards but also joined the Minivan.

I'll take a picture of Skeletor on a TK78 for you  :p. But yeah, it feels like we have a similar taste. But your wallet seems a lot stronger than mine, I was really interested in trying a Minivan with Matias switches, as well as getting a TX-CP, but that really would have been too much in such a short time. A friend of mine ordered the RS68 as his first non-Razer mech (I'm a little proud of him), which will be assembled by me, so I'll know whether or not it was a bad decision to not join that drop.
