Would like to see force graph.
Working on it!

Will be interesting to see a comparison between these two switches and bcp & zyco. There’s been some recent efforts to replicate these frankens, but afaik, or imo at least, no actual substitutes yet. No info on the springs though, stock JWK/Durock? Springs are very much preference so it’s not a deal breaker if they’re not all that, but it would be interesting if you did some experimentation with the usual suspects.
We have gone with the stock route this time around, but the Harimau will be using a longer 16mm spring to reduce ping to the minimum after some experimentation. As you said, spring is very much preference so we decided to go with the safe route that everyone's familiar with and the people with more specific preferences for springs will be able to swap them out. From our testing, the stock options are definitely sufficient.

After the sound tests....c-mon, put a price tag on it and lets go with the GB! :)
We will try to accelerate things! Just waiting on the coloured samples now and finalizing with vendors. We can't wait for these to be out there too!

If by any reason I'm not able to join this GB, I really really hope you guys would consider in-stock.
Will definitely make sure to have a decent amount of extras afterwards, then if demand is still there, we will coordinate with the vendors to meet MOQ and do future restock runs.

Thanks! Looking to have more concrete dates etc once we receive the coloured samples which should be here early next week! Want to make sure everything is good before proceeding.

I would just go ahead and buy a couple of hundreds of each of these regardless of what color combo you end up having (never really into matching switches with themes kinda guy) the switch sounds really dope and I'd love to have it sooner than later.

Timeline will be slightly pushed back. We're not satisfied with the latest round of samples and will have to make another batch.

But we are also making some slight changes. The Harimau should be even closer and resemble Zykos more now.

Yep, BIGGG tactile, feels even crazier than Zyko in our opinions, whether it is "better" or not will come down to your own preferences haha

Will they feel like Holy Panda?  I don't love holy panda originals or R1/R2.  Too crude for my like.

I mean it says in the title what they’re modeled after. HP are very different, so you can probably rest assured they won’t.

Is the actuation distance for the switches same as the usual JWKs given the longer pole? I found the Konpeitous to have a shorter actuation distance in comparison to the H1s, Alpacas, Mauves etc.

Thanks.

Will definitely look into that, thanks for the heads up

I really want to see a review/test by content creators before the gb. They have the experience and the equipments to show the sound characteristics of the switch, which I think is nice to have for the buyers to make informed decisions

That is why we are waiting for a new batch of reworked samples to make sure they are up to our expectations and standards before running the gb. Rest assured they will be sent to prominent reviewers once that happens :D

New batch of samples should be here within these few days. Once they are here and they are up to our expectations, we will set a concrete date.

Latest batch of samples are here! They are good to go and on the way for reviews. We are also finalizing dates and prices for all of the regions.

Do note that there were some slight changes made to the switches since the first samples, so do expect it to vary slightly compared to the original sound tests. Although we should be taking sound tests with a pinch of salt anyway as every other part on the board will also alter the sounds. But personally I feel the changes made to Harimau especially have changed the experience quite a bit, especially stock, a very sharp and poppy experience, without much of the ping issues in the beginning, I'm personally way more excited for that now compared to the beginning of the project.

Samples have been sent to Theremingoat to comment on, so stay tuned for that! Dates will be announced very soon, we're almost there!
