60 bucks for a GMK key-set! I might be down for that just to see what the fuss is about GMK! and Why it cost 180+ after group buy! if its 180+ dollars worth of amazing then perhaps its easier to invest in a set.

It will probably not be that way.  He just at times foots the bill, so there's no group  buy price, but no group buy wait time either. He's going to announce the set and put it in the store at the same time at retail prices. I like the lack of wait time and risk personally.

o ok! got ya! I am curious to see what it is then! That was a bit confusing on the wording "chuckles" but then again new to this and not really seen this type of thing done before.

Is the Retro Cyrillic set it?  I hadn't noticed it previously, and it certainly has a lot of red.

Dunno.  That could have been there previously.  I usually don't pay much attention to sets with multi legends.

I just hope it doesn't look too much like GMK Yuri or GMK Led Zep.

Okay, okay.  It's  "better".  I do like the Yuri Icon mods.  And the honeycomb to go with honeywell and triC board is a nice touch for sure.  Still though... that red on gray.  Need to see in person, I suppose.

The red on grey is an abomination in those pictures. I'd like to think it looks 100x better in person. I'm with you I need to see in person, or at least a better more naturally lit picture.

If it’s anything like DSA Honeywell that Holtenc did over at primekb, it’ll look a lot better than the pics in person. I felt that the pics weren’t bad (good enough for me to order the kit hah), but the shade of red in person is much deeper than the images and oh man, is it gorgeous.

I’ll cross my fingers this set is the same for the folks that jump on it, cause the red does seem a bit brighter than id imagine it would be.

The red on grey does not seem like it fits very well.
