I would really like to run a Commodore style set at some point, but it's more likely to be attempted with GMK. When I try that I think I may give the alphas and mods+nav break up a shot again and run it with 2 options. Have the black on darker beige alpha set, a black on white mods+nav, and a black on beige mods+nav.That way people that have black on white set could get a black on white mods+nav for mono or a beige set with modern keys, or can go with the Commodore style, or go with an all black/beige mono set.
My best guess is GMK wouldn't have issues with pad printing red some italic A 1.25 keys just like the originals... not sure if that would really be a trademark problem since it's simply a letter and not 'Amiga'. I guess the Commodore logo would be a no, but they didn't have those keys anyway on the originals.
Probably either all white or white/beige classic. Other custom order colors is too high MOQ with KBC, though it might be doable with PLUM. But I think certain color might not be doable as I think still at least 300 sets.
Yes if do white/beige will definitely make sure 100% there will not be the problem with wrong color keys again. I'm still annoyed they refused to fix that mistake.
So for dual language sets I thinkUS/ArabicUS/ChineseUS/JapaneseUS/HebrewUS/GreekBut I think perhaps on some other fonts. Maybe give the Cherry style a rest for a change?
Next round of sets might have 1.5 mods and 7x spacebar if they are ready as I have been informed molds for those are in the works. Of course the cost on these sets will be up to $15 higher than before. Still working on trying to convince produce molds for ISO enter and 1.75 shift and then it would at least have all the essentials.
Yes I always offer blank as it is a zero effort option.
What's the cherry board with the purple legends? I want those.
There's a cherry board with purple legends on ~, 2, 3, and 4. I don't think I can find a pic again.

What colorways that may be doable is pending on how PLUM stuff turns out. KBC is too high MOQ for custom color orders. 300 sets is a hard enough goal... 1000 is out of the question.
1000 is for custom color, stock color is 400, compared to GMK, custom color will have MOQ of 600 if I remember right from the Toxic discuss, at that time they havent lowered standard MOQ (400->250) yet,
They are used to selling to OEM in huge quantities, not to individuals or small groups.
I will move to buy status for novelty keys only in 1 week. Any final suggestions?
