Will we be lucky enough to get anything for the spacebar set?

Well I'll have to ask if we can do something.
The thing, it can make some people frustrated if I don't make a blue spacebar in each size.

What about blue biip novelty instead od hand fan one? I think one blue 1u novelty is not enought

Well, I think I'll actually do that.

Awesome results! Is this the first time 1K is hit outside MD?
This goes to show that the sky is the limit for terrific themed cohesive set with wonderful colorway and novelities.

True. Hope we can work something out if its possible to add something to the set.

Those final numbers are awesome, I didn't expect it to hit those numbers especially while Jamon was running pretty much concurrently.

I'm guessing spacebars will go +500 and Kobe is going to hit MoQ with vendor numbers if you are expecting 1k base?

And those Rama numbers are awesome too.  :thumb:

I like the symbols, but I think I'd rather get them in r2, r3, r4 rather have them all in r1.

+1 for r2, r3, r4 novelty as opposed to r1 or all r1, if cost permits.
r1 novelty has limited use, I am being selfish as I am a 60/65 user :)

Novelties spread between rows make covering an ortho board easier and look great 65(?)% boards with that little strip on the right side, so yes, this must be so

Been watching the GB and really want to jump in. CandyKeys seem to still allow preorders... any idea for how long?

And also, it seems they haven't added the deskmats yet, as the price is €500 which sounds odd and they are out of stock.

Any info on above?

Closing it shortly, our fault. No longer valid, that is being shut down.
 Regarding the mats, that price is just a placeholder, we are not allowed to sell it yet until prototypes are done.

Dang, that is thoroughly disappointing. I thought that perhaps you are a vendor and the product was still live you have a slightly delayed end date. I saw no end date listed on your website.

If there is a way to still order please PM me. Otherwise I suppose it serves me right for waiting, but had to... funds-related. ;)

I'd prefer something like that. I most likely wouldn't have any use for an other row (r3 or r4) novelty personally. Feels like everyone else does though. And since it's a bonus I wasn't expecting anyway, I guess I could add my voice to the full R1-R4 as well.

waiting for GMK to confirm but here is the final choice:

Pardon my ignorance but what is the R3 cap? Looks like a fruit or a half eaten pizza.  :))

My guess would be a Japanese fan

But please correct me if I'm wrong

Man, just realized after looking at the set again...didn't have 1.25u R3 !!!

That was never planned since it's actually so uncommon. Sorry, hope you understand!

No Worries, already looking forward to them !!! When is June coming !!
