And trust me, I'm kinda upset about that… I hope it won't be a big deal for buyers.

I'm running out of time to make my decision on this, but I think I want DSA Milkshake for the new purple colorway of the Preonic. If I want to cover that board do I just need Weirdo Alphas and the Ortho kit or will I need to pickup extra 1u blanks as well (Fruits, Blanks, or Dots?)

You should be fine with alphas and ortho ye :)
But I’d recommend to add a blank or fruits pack for more compatibility!

Hey! Sorry for the lack of updates. The last pics of milkshake you can see on my Instagram account are actually the samples I got :)

I talked with Zfrontier, and the manufacturer is in time, they are launching production soon! I just have to confirm them the new colors adjustment.

The white is « pure Snow White », I mean, it’s basic white, there is apparently no reference for that one.
And the colors are Pantone equivalences so tough to find something really close...

Thanks, not sure what I will need, but want enough kits including noveltys for a 40 to 50% MKB. Can I pay for them before you have them in stock or you hold them for me? I will be in contact w/ you for some switches too. Also, how’s everything going w/ your XDA Zelda keyset?

I received mine today and sadly there are quite a lot issues, mostly with weirdo alphas. Please see my attachments.

1. Weirdo alphas
- The 1 look very different from the render and doesn't look like a 1
- Double 6 and no 9 (I used the extra 6 as 9)
- Double apostrophe and no comma
- Mirrored X
- Z missed a line at the bottom

2. Ortho
- The line should be a dot according to the render

Other than these, the caps look amazing though. TKL and fruit sets have no issue. Hopefully something can be done for these issues.

Thanks for the feedback :)
So... I have some answers for you:

The 1 is the same as the one present in the samples.
Weirdo 6 and 9 were the same since the beggining.
If you flip one of the apostrophe, you’ll have a coma.
You have to invert the 7 and the Z.
The X• is for delete and X- for backspace.

I hope it helps!

I received mine today and sadly there are quite a lot issues, mostly with weirdo alphas. Please see my attachments.

1. Weirdo alphas
- The 1 look very different from the render and doesn't look like a 1
- Double 6 and no 9 (I used the extra 6 as 9)
- Double apostrophe and no comma
- Mirrored X
- Z missed a line at the bottom

2. Ortho
- The line should be a dot according to the render

Other than these, the caps look amazing though. TKL and fruit sets have no issue. Hopefully something can be done for these issues.

Thanks for the feedback :)
So... I have some answers for you:

The 1 is the same as the one present in the samples.
Weirdo 6 and 9 were the same since the beggining.
If you flip one of the apostrophe, you’ll have a coma.
You have to invert the 7 and the Z.
The X• is for delete and X- for backspace.

I hope it helps!

I see, I pointed these out because they are different from the render and I just realized the 7 and Z are swapped haha. Thanks for the answers!

Not that it's a big deal, but the 6 and 9 are sightly different in the Weirdo Alphas kit render in the OP.

Very stoked to getting my sets though. Awesome work on your first set Biip! Looking forward to what you come up with in the future.

I was comparing it to the render and if you look carefully there are some differences. Of course I do not mind at all but should have check the pics of sample first before posting. Anyway I am still very happy with the sets and glad I bought it.

Definitely not lost in transit. With the holidays and everything being imported, shipping took a little longer than normal.

Well, waited for the extras and the Specialties sold out before I could complete the checkout...which means I can't get a set that fits my layout.

Were there like 12 extras? Because damn. lol

Any idea if there's gonna be another run? Ever?

I mean, I guess, but the caps I wanted were already gonna be $177 + tax & shipping. I don't need another r/mm tax on top of that.

All the colors are especially great, the only issue was trying to figure out where to use the colors as there are many options.

All orders are packaged, either sent or waiting for DPD pick up. The only ones not packaged and done are the ones from the new site as we will require getting some missing kits from Zfrontier and then there are export ones to Australia, USA, Asia that need to be exported. Otherwise if you do not have a number yet then please send an email.
