The color choices are looking great, I'm excited for the blue and black combination!

Any chance that I will know which color Schrodinger CV I'm getting before this GB starts?

I want to get a different color for this if possible.

Can pc and alu be mixed or will material difference cause any issues? Also will there be brass badges like in r1?

Love the colors! I find myself loving the white-grey (or is it blue?) color more than the red-black or purple-black. Am I correct in assuming that the color that looks like grey but not really is the blue you are talking about? Is there any chance of the red top getting paired with the bottom blue grey color? Black seems too dark to pair with the red. I'd like it more with a softer color.

But nonetheless, it looks good!  ^-^

Could you pleaase elaborate on the badge color options. I am super confused.

For single tone boards: badge and weight will be the same color as the case color

For dual-tone boards: the badge and weight will have contrast colors from the case. For example, white top, pink bottom will have pink badge and white weight

PC boards will have white badge and white weight.

Will there be option for an extra "gold" badge just like the previous Think?

Wait, I just noticed the CF isn't listed as a plate option anymore, I guess due to low demand on it.
Would there be any chance on making the plate files publicly available afterwards, so people can cut their own?

Thanks in advance Mr Oldcat, I really appreciate your work a lot :thumb:

Oldcat, any chance we could see more renders / photos of a fully operational battle station fully assembled polycarb Think6.5? Maybe with some backlighting thrown in?

Full disclosure: I voted for purple – one colour to rule them all. ;P

The purple and black colour combination makes no sense to me.
The colours wash together in a dark muddy affair, doing no justice to the accents.
I am convinced purple on white would be the solid choice.

Forgot to elaborate why I did not like the red-black one compared to the white-black/blue/grey. Same sentiments here. The red weight is barely visible against the black bottom and does not contrast well. As per my last comment, a lighter color for the bottom paired with the red top would likely look better.

true

I was locked in for a true Eva purple-green but was still on board for a purple-black with green badge. I think making the green badge a separate purchase (and even that's not a guarantee) has probably lost me. It's an undeniably great design but I just don't have the budget right now to back something unless I really love it. Eva gave me that feeling but I'll probably start looking elsewhere now. I'm sure this will do super well though!

lol each to their own, purple and black is the only one I'm interested in.

Yea I would've liked a green badge too but I think the black badge with green light will be pretty nice.

Very nice renders! What software did you use? Love the innovation behind this as well! Alot of thought and research has been put into this for sure!

I'm super keen for a purple and black one as well. I'm sure a lot of others are thinking the same thing but it should look great with GMK EVA 01/MECHA 01. Looking forward to when the GB goes live.

PCB powered by QMK?

Yes, it should work with QMK as well as VIA out of the box.

I will test it soon with VIA

It's usually in USD.  I too am in Canada and have been seeing 40-50 shipping cost on average (USD)

Absolutely agree with this, especially after seeing the e-white renders - purple on white seems like a missed opportunity.

ate up by bots ofc, oldcat is there a way we can prevent bot attacks?

Offline alwaysbless

  • Posts: 110
Honestly even a bot cant check out in 1s. Your bot would need to know every field for every page involved in the check out in advance (unlikely unless youve seen it before) and itd still take at least 3-4s. That just sounds off period.

Offline FlitzDeelman

Not a bot, but maybe a coordinated team of bots.

also, not everything that sells out quick is because of "bots". especially not if it was very limited with high demand in the first place...

Was really hoping for the color options shown in this render, especially the one with the greenish/teal bottom, but it looks like it’s not going to be an option huh?  :(

Sadly, but you can still hope for the teal badge tho, since the badge color is still tba

Is the 1U/2U badge secured to the case by friction?
