GMK Triumph Adler was the first ever GMK set with custom colors. But the final colors not being a perfect match to the original Triumph Adler set. So this time, GMK TA 90 will be color matched with the original keycaps from the Triumph Adler G81-3011HAD to bring this beauty back in the game.

Are the alphas are gonna be grey like in the photo and the modifiers a bit darker than the previous round of GMK Triumph Adler?
Are they supposed to look like that or just look different on camera?

looks exactly like the og alpha in the pics, and modifiers will be lighter than intelli78's GMK Triumph Adler.

I don't condone the use of "keeb" in anyway, shape or form. A mechanical keyboard "enthusiast" who is too lazy to type the word "keyboard" or "board" should find a new hobby.

Reminder that the GB doesn't until the end of the month! (Greatest day of the year, too.)
So 50 orders in just the first few days isn't too bad, especially since it started later than estimated.

Itty suggestion, but I'd recommend changing the banner. I know I mentioned it, but I wasn't the only one confused by the final color of the alphas. The caps next to the OG ones made me think the same color for intelli's alphas was going to be used. Maybe you could put the comparison at the bottom; like "here's what intelli's looked like compared to OG and this GB" or summat.

I'll admit to that, not everyone knows the history of this set. The whole point is to be more gray this time. I likes me gray blues.

Gotta scrape up some spare cash before the end of the month, but once I do I’m definitely in as well!

iliketimex · « **Reply #22 on:** Tue, 10 July 2018, 11:54:17 »

Just realized that the icon set + a WoB set could make a decent GMK IBM Selectric variation, minus some bottom row keys. Good luck with the GB.

Why does the base set not have the classic icon mods, instead of the extra set?

Some original sets have mixed mods and some have icon mods. There really isn’t a definitive standard on how they were made since it differed depending on where it was sold. At that point it’s up to the GB runner which one is in the base set.

[...]

That is a good explanation, just found pictures of icon mods so far. So the normal mods were probably more popular in the IC.

$170 on Kono.Store wtf

Seriously... recent custom color GMK group buys like Taro with far more compatibility were $155 at MOQ of 250. Hell, even GMK Camping which also ran on Kono.store was $175 and it had an insane amount of novelties in the base kit to help justify that price.

I love this colorway and I really want to support it, but the price/compatibility offered here is honestly laughable.

I'm a bit late to the party as i couldn't and still can't really decide. What color will the legends on the mods be? In all the pics it looks like white but i can't say for sure based on the GMK renders, looks pretty grey to me there. Would be nice if someone could tell me before the gb ends so i may still hop on. For what it's worth, hope they are not grey =)

They are definitely not grey. Maybe I will use CP color.

Could you make sure that the mods are legible, or even better, review the samples with us to get it right?

Not a good sign to me when the legends are still "maybe CP" during the GB period.

Good catch, darthzero. I'll feel stupid to have joined two TA GBs if it turned to be grey on blue

. Personally I find it gross.

Would like to know the status as well. I want to join only if R0 kit will make it.

Through comparing these keys, I think CP color is almost the same. The final color will be finalized only after I get color samples from GMK.

zFrontier didn't tell me the correct number, but Base Kit and NorDE Kit didn't meet MOQ yet. Vendors are considering if they will purchase it to MOQ.
