PBTfans Vior

Greetings, enthusiasts.

Welcome to the interest check forum of our latest design, PBTfans™ Vior by Aiglatson Studio. The intention of this post is to gauge interest and ask for the community’s feedback to estimate demand.

• INSPIRATION

The theme of Pbtfans Vior is inspired by cosmic dust. The set comes in dark purple, semi-transparent outer layers with incorporated silver and gold sparkles that add more dimension to the caps.

• SPECIFICATIONS

Material: ABS Material
Profile: Cherry Profile
Manufacturing Method: Double shot injection moulding
Manufacturer: KBDfans
Packaging: ABS keycaps tray with designed tray cover
Compatibility: Cherry MX and MX clones switches
Designer: Aiglatson Studio

• Colour Comparison

• KITS

Base Kit

40s Kit

International Kit

Alpha Kit

Numpad Kit

Artisan Keycap

Deskmat

• RENDERS

Apsis Designed by Laminar Designs in collaboration with Manu Eloquentclicks

F1-8x 722 by Geonworks

W1-AT by Geonworks

Piggy by Jackylab

• DISCLAIMERS

1. These keycaps are semi-transparent; therefore, colors may be highly sensitive to lighting and the angle of view.
2. The inner layer for the actual set would potentially have visible holes. These holes are not defects but manufacturing constraints from the double shot injection molding process.

Love this, even compared to Pyga which is already a classic. A definite buy from me.

PBTfans keeps having downright the most interesting sets I've seen. First Pyga and now this. Best of luck with IC!

Same.

Windowed caps are also a great addition. Looking forward to the set.

I love the inverted alphas, but the glitter feels odd to me. At a distances, like when the images are not zoomed in, the caps just sort of look dusty or like there is some debris on them. But those alphas are super nice.

Maybe I'm just a sucker for "colors on white"

text or text+icon modifiers are completely fine, I personally prefer text+icon the most, but pbtfans' font/molds for text+icon are just bad. I just can't stand the uneven height of lowercase letters, worst offender is the Delete legend. they make the set look like some bad aifei clone priced at 90-100 bucks

Fair enough. I know the kerning on the shift keys gets to me, but I can deal with it since the quality of PBTfans has been surprisingly good in my experience.

Yeah this is just VoC if you make it mono, make it translucent, change the legends, add glitter, and use different colors

Very nice, loved Pyga and this looks as good if not better. Are the legends on the alt alphas semi-transparent as well? Any chance of a US vendor this time?

gotta admit the samples look even better than the render.
will cave and buy. ~~VoC~~ alpha kit too.

cijanzen · « **Reply #36 on:** Mon, 27 February 2023, 20:02:19 »

With this set, I don’t have to worry about the keycaps getting dusty!

Jokes aside, this looks really great. The translucent purple Nintendo fan in me is really feeling nostalgia.

I also love them, but if you look closely at the keycap's structure and imagine that the black part is transparent. There will definitely be leakages of light, which will not look very appealing. So, we decided to remove them from the set.

Lewis_Lyron · « **Reply #42 on:** Mon, 06 March 2023, 00:12:05 »

Like a dusting of gold powder

BRSxIgnition · « **Reply #43 on:** Wed, 08 March 2023, 14:29:51 »

Love the theme of this, though I kind of hope that the set ends up going deeper vs darker.

i.e.: A more saturated purple, tad closer to blue than red, coupled with a cooler white, instead of beige.

I think these changes would help separate it from Pyga a bit more too, IMO.

Something like this? (Apologies in advance for my limited photoshop skills)

More

All personal preference, but still.

Very nice set all the same!

By any chance is this possible to add Light-themed Mods kit ? There is full-Red-ish base but if I buy also Light Alphas I only can use Mods at 1 board at the time, when I want to buy this set for 2 boards, so it would be nice to have either Light-Mods kit that covers the same as Base, or full Light-Base as alternative. That would be awesome!

Any eta? I know kbdfans has just been doing in stock drops. Like q4 etc? Seems they have a lot of sets in the IC phase
