That feeling when you buy the base, symbols, and bars, and the price shipped is under 180

yeah, love the look of the set, love the color, but still can't get myself to spend that much on keycaps (regardless of how good they are). was a big fan of laser too, but couldn't convince myself to join that GB either.

What's the color code of the red color used in this set? Is it P3? I'm asking because I'm interested in getting the spacebar kit to make my Handarbeit+ set Alice compatible.

After an exhaustive internet search, it seems there is no definitive definition of Lego red.  Search results versus KLE's definition of P3:

Dvorcol that's amazing.

Have P3 here with Ceresia, it's a bit darker than a red Lego.

I do intend to run another round for this set, but I have GMK Klassiker coming up next, and then Oblivion V3.2 in Q1 2022. I don't really want to add any more group buys to the queue at this time until GMK lead times have started to noticeably get shorter (e.g. 6-8 months instead of 12). The same goes for ASCII R2.
