Did not join this GB since it didn't support my ISO-DE layout but I hope this colorway will get rerun with a more stable manufacturer ( Maybe KAT ). Really like the look of the set and it would be a shame if it fell by the wayside cuz of a suboptimal manu.
every keycap manufacturer has issues.
kat has issues as seen with milkshake (off centered legends), possibly spacebars being outside cherry spec enough to make certain stabs like c3 not work with KAT.
gmk has had issues with crooked stems (gmk olive), known legend issues that won't be addressed as they are part of the mold (like scroll, z, etc), legend quality issues (gmk wob and bow extension kit had issues, oblivion mods had issues - thankfully in both cases gmk did deliver corrections), and with newer sets, more space bars appear to be warped with GMK getting feedback but being largely silent so far. not to mention the new gmk packaging is bleh.
it seems tkc is working with infinikey on improving the keysets. yes, it does suck a bit to be guinea pigs, but here are some things they have done:
1. packaging is better than gmk.
2. will re-run BoW mods as the font size was not to their specification. people who bought BoW should be getting replacement mods in a few months (i hope)
3. acknowledged alignment issues with mod legends, have implemented a fix starting with sets after hive (yes it does suck that for sets prior to hive and including hive may not have better aligned mods)
4. acknowledged homing bar issues and other issues. are willing to work with infinikey to make new molds
5. keep a ton of spare space bars in case of warp.
anyway, i am sure TKC has given bad responses, but their actions also indicate they are working on improving the product.
