Mine just arrived today, all the sets are complete, and my leopold is all sorts of sexy now!  Thanks Elton!
I'd love to see!  ;D


Edit:Here's my latest concoction:

I decided to stick with school spirit for now and will try out the pink with the rest blue very soon as was suggested!

P.S. What are the opinions on ~ and | keys? I've seen them go every which way(either matching letters/#'s or matching modifiers or mix/match both ways). Should my | key be red too!?

My set arrived today and shortly after...

(Attachment Link)

That pic, like quite a few, seems to show a reasonable contrast between caps and legends on the yellow.  This is a Good Thing!

Wow I got home today feeling really down, but then I saw a package on my doorstep and instantly got excited! The keys look great, putting them on my poker 2 right now. Thanks a ton elton  :thumb:

Now I just wish I ordered the space bars...

Keep an eye out - there might be a few floating around Classifieds, or maybe even certain vendor forums, at some stage.  Also KeyPop had some polycarb space bars made up - some of those might become available too.  If those are anything like the BumbleBee space bar - they are great!

Received mine today. They look awesome, thanks again elton. This was my first GB and it was incredibly smooth.

Congratulations!

Not all GBs are quite as smooth as this - thanks to Elton for this one :)

It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

are the opinions on ~ and | keys? I've seen them go every which way(either matching letters/#'s or matching modifiers or mix/match both ways). Should my | key be red too!?

Our opinions don't matter - just do whatever you like most  :p

Technically the "~" and the "\" key should be the same color as the rest of the alphas, because they clearly are not Modifier keys.

Personally, I'd use the yellow caps for those 2 keys for perfect symmetry, but as I said that's totally up to you  :)

If you're the sort that worries about those things, you can always try what I do: only alphas one color, everything else (numerics, punctuation, and modifiers) another. Once my set is here I'll be posting pics :) Can't wait!

Congratulations!  A nice surprise :)

I usually forget about the GBs I have entered.  Usually works out in the end.

What happened to only 5 colours?  And why is this other blue look better?

I guess this proves that they DO take custom colour orders.  Hmmmmmmmm lol.

And the ETA on Sherryton's site says January, I guess he's waiting on spacebar too.  Maybe Tai Hao finally realize there's a market for this layout.

Sneaky sneaky...

I've ask TH about it and have a price and MOQ already. I've posted this a month ago I think.

For the spacebars. That's why they let me to go with that low MOQ because they said they have another project for it.

Oh I remember seeing that post, but I guess I just didn't know what colour options they're willing to do.

lol yeah I kinda suspect as much about the spacebar when I saw this.  Now I wonder if they're willing to develop proper mold for window and menu key.

Very soon the market will be flooded with Tai Hai keycaps.  :P

The major selling point when THIS GB started was a full set of DS (minus space bar) for $6.50.

If they accept custom colour orders for an extra price, we might not have made the MOQ.

Even with the couple of little additions, $9 for the sets in this GB - people could hardly refuse to join in!

or blanks?

I'm thinking techkeys' billiard key set against a blank green set...

White case looks good with colour combination.

i wanted to do an RGB set for CTRL, SHIFT, and ALT keys for my keyboards but I realized that I needed more table space to go through all the keycaps and the wife wasn't too impressed, lol.

Went through and sorted all the keys to ensure that none were missing and I'm happy to report that none were. Perfect group buy Elton, thank you!

Fun fun, I took a crack at making a Handerbeit replica:

Cherry. Not a perfect match for profile, but helped complete the color way.  :rolleyes:

I didn't mean to point out the difference, just wanted to know if there were purple OEM mods.

Look on the bright side, sherry will be getting purple, pink and lime green, we'll only miss orange :D

Looks good to me.  With so many colors going on, you can barely see the height difference.

I don't know if this has already been asked (never seen it in the thread) but do you have any idea how the caps are getting to Europe? Is it likely to be airmail or freight?
