I'm assuming they're anodized aluminum? And green added to the mix would look nice.

dorkvader · « **Reply #9 on:** Tue, 13 March 2012, 18:19:56 »

While they do look nice, I would also love to see some green. Two two colours of blue are pretty close, but there's no green

lorem3k · « **Reply #10 on:** Tue, 13 March 2012, 18:27:45 »

Are these coming "soon" like the VorTex dyesubs?

thegunner100 · « **Reply #11 on:** Tue, 13 March 2012, 18:30:28 »

Or maybe Blizzard "soon"?

hazeluff · « **Reply #12 on:** Tue, 13 March 2012, 18:35:58 »

I myself fancy the red one.

Playtrumpet · « **Reply #13 on:** Tue, 13 March 2012, 19:03:53 »

I want these, can I have these, can we make that happen please?

Sifo · « **Reply #14 on:** Tue, 13 March 2012, 20:59:56 »

I'd take some blues.

MyNameIsFinn · « **Reply #15 on:** Tue, 13 March 2012, 21:15:01 »

Do want

Human · « **Reply #16 on:** Wed, 14 March 2012, 00:36:46 »

Do all of them come with no curvature? Not sure if it will be comfortable enough for typing...

CaiSter21 · « **Reply #17 on:** Wed, 14 March 2012, 14:10:44 »

i doubt these keys will be meant for any of the main keys. probably end up being R4 row keys

captain · « **Reply #18 on:** Wed, 14 March 2012, 15:19:09 »

Thanks iMav! I assume these are from KBTalking direct?

Can we get
1) Row confirmation, and
2) pictures from the undersides, and
3) maybe even micrometer measurements, please?
Also,
4)are these from the same guy that feng has been sourcing from?
4a) Will they have the same QC problems?

I know how asking more than one question at a time seems to leave everything after the first one left unanswered. Perhaps numbering will help. ;-)

Just some baseless assumption.
4)are these from the same guy that feng has been sourcing from? probably not, the one bulk by feng are made by MKC from China, which probably didn't heard having any relation with KBT
4a) Will they have the same QC problems? If not by same manufacturer, the QC/qualities will probably varies. One is flat(no curve) while another is curved, one is anodized while another is electroplated.

dorkvader · « **Reply #20 on:** Thu, 15 March 2012, 14:18:09 »

Also, Feng's are zinc, and these are aluminium

They are a shop that produced the electroplated zinc keycaps that feng sold a short while ago (and is still selling, I believe). You should check the GB forum more often.

Human · « **Reply #23 on:** Sat, 17 March 2012, 09:10:40 »

Hmm, just found out that the picture just can't justify how the keycaps actually look like.
Picture shamelessly stolen from here...

For the love of Dog Chapman I hope not...

I NEED a few of those black metal squirrel keycaps! Me and my dad get distracted by squirrels (among other things) so this would be a perfect gag gift. Is there a GB for these somewhere?

dmbr · « **Reply #26 on:** Tue, 03 April 2012, 12:49:57 »

Would love to have some of those!

Omerta · « **Reply #27 on:** Tue, 10 April 2012, 12:00:54 »

Dying these would be pretty crazy, the colors would seep into the groves for some eye popping results.
