IC Form link not working.Should be fixed. Thanks for letting me know.
DANG. T W O S E T S. Sheeeesh. *take my money rn*Hopefully vendor supports it and it can reach MOQ. Still tentative.
Filled out the IC! Also yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes to R2 novs for "Tab" & "|\" No one ever does this and it is by far the biggest miss when it comes to novelties imo. So thank you for including this option in the IC hopefully others like it as well.Ah thanks for the enthusiasm, I wasn't sure about R2 1.5u novelties. I'll try to keep at least one of them. Depends on cost of kit.
Would be nice if the 2 square legend/keys (on r2 to the right side) on the Base Kit - Katakana could be swapped out with a different legend/legends. Could be something like the ones found on the gmk fuji keys
Not sure which keys you are talking about. Are you referring to the alpha keys with dashed line squares around dakuten ゛, handakuten ゛ that would go where "[{" & "]}" would typically be? The ones on the GMK Fuji Keys won't match with Kana monolegends, as those legends are sublegend placements.
I'm likely to re-title this as GMK Shogun.
There's been consideration to merge this IC with GMK

"Shogun" is much easier to remember, type, and market.
I don't have any plans at this stage to abandon the Kintsugi novelties (the initial inspiration) as it seems from the feedback form that there remains healthy interest in them too.
There's been suggestions and consideration to merge this IC with GMK Black & Gold (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=123619.0), however I would prefer to keep the sets separate if possible for a distinct identity. I really want the katakana modifiers in the base kit, and so I consider this overall set a different design, despite having the same colour scheme as GMK Black & Gold.
If there's no support for 2 split base kits, I'll consider pivoting to just 1 base kit with katakana modifiers, and to have a separate alpha kit with katakana sublegends.
