Mine finally came in today, chucked it on my GH60 for now with Vintage Blacks in a Red Case with a TH esc key. Looks and feels pretty nice. Just had to put tape on the stabs on the Enter key.Show Image
Just got my red riot and its looks great but my Enter keycap has some issues, the stems are scratching against the stabilizers. Anyone else experience this with theirs?

Anyone else experience this with theirs?They might not be sitting on there right. Make sure you push them down all the way on both sides. Mine made a popping sound. If you know they are on all the way, make sure one side isn't lifting off when you press the key. Some people have needed to add plastic wrap or tape between the stabilizer cruciform and the keycap stem to tighten the fit.

If I use my GMK keycap, it has no issue. It might be an issue with the spacing of the stems because it wobbles.

I think Puddsy said in another thread that it's a problem due to the JTK molds -- not entirely sure though
So, mine did that too, but then I pressed down hard on the right side, where the left popped off. But the right side made a snap. Then I did the same thing on the left side. Then I put it on again and it worked. Weird, but it fixed the issue for me.

yea i dont know about you guys but pressing down until i hear a snap or pop is not ideal whatsoever

Quote from: Puddsy on Sat, 06 April 2019, 22:24:24my last contact with zf was 3/3and so my patience will be tested againIs this why they're not shipping my TA 90 set? Because I ordered it a while back, and everybody else got itEmailed a few times now. )
If anyone has an open line of contact with Alex at ZF, please tell him to email me back. Thanks.

Show ImageGot my new custom mousemat in today to match with the set (:
http://imgur.com/StZFty8 Finally found its new home!
So did ZFrontier end up keeping the extras for themselves??

It kinda grew on me and now I don’t have the heart to get rid of it.
This might diminish my chances to get a set myself, but I like you guys and also want to be a counter voice to the rumour that zfrontier sold all the extras at the chinese market.I just received this email from alex from zfrontier (after asking for Red Riot extras):Show Image

I‘m guessing that he / they saw the email and quickly spontaneously decided to give a short answer.

If you're looking for the extras from Zfrontier, they just listed them on their web site a few minutes ago. Here's Yolch:https://en.zfrontier.com/collections/inventory-sales/products/jtk-yolchand here's Red Riot (yes, the url looks odd, but it really does pull up Red Riot):https://en.zfrontier.com/collections/inventory-sales/products/copy-of-jtk-red-on-black
