So, when are we getting these?

Keep in mind that this is an SA set, which means it won't be coming out before summer. Not when 1976, Jukebox etc will be having their second round first.

[WOMBO]

holy - this looks so pretty. how backed up are SA orders? I only know of pulse, selectric and 1976.

This is the page for SP's backlog: http://pimpmykeyboard.com/key-status/

You'll notice they indicate they're scheduled out until August.

Why not DSA or all SA Row 3? Then it would all be uniform like chocolate blocks:

You just blew my mind. Can we have DSA??

That's what I'm sayin'!

The only reasons I'd consider DSA are:
- PBT, so custom legends available.
- no significant line compared to SA
- the 1u caps look just like little chocolate squares. Like you can break them off and eat them. nom nom


If you go the DSA route, you even can have renders of the caps inside a Wonka wrapper, like a chocolate bar coming out of the wrapper except they're the brown caps. One even can have a golden ticket. )

SWEET !!!!!   

I want this set and Penumbra solarised...

[Tre3Cycl3S]

Oh dear lord this looks divinely delectable and devilishly delicious.... Did I say delectable and delicious? I meant gorgeous and awesome

Can't wait till this is available, must have this set!!

[-musubi]

I feel like this is one of those keysets where you don't wanna use it at all since you'd ruin it (like art pieces made of food)

As always, thanks for your support. The project is on track but, as you might probably know, TAC will have to wait for its turn.

As I said a couple of days ago, I've been considering the option of having a 60% base kit instead of a TKL, like in the 1976's group buy. The main problem of doing this is that it could potentially create some confusion and it means that we are also adding an additional child deal.

In addition, I've been thinking about offering or not the homing bumps keycaps.

I'll post a big update as soon as I can.

Thanks for your support!

IMO, you definitely need the homing keys. How would you center your hands on the board without them?

The base kit includes deep dish homing keycaps, I was talking about the Extra Kit, which has the "Nipples"

[cheddarbek]

Not that I'd expect this to happen, but am I the only weirdo who likes homing on D and K?

Looks like a mint oreo cookie!  Now I really AM hungry

As far as I know, some vintage keyboards have their homing there.

I've become quite accustomed to it on my AEKII. I'd love to see it with other keycap sets...but I know it probably won't happen. A guy can hope though.

Ahh, sorry, I misunderstood what you were talking about. I can do without the "nipples", prefer deep dish anyway.

You and all of the vintage Apple lovers out there  :thumb:

The extra kit could be a home for them if I decide not to offer homing bumps.

I'm in.  Beautiful renders!

[katushkin]

Should have made a big purple enter a la Cadbury

But, the set looks really sweet. Good job on the renders and child kits too.

[Durahk]

Those renders look fantastic. If this hits MD I'm jumping on it instantly.

Well over now.

[hashbaz]

This looks...delicious! Good work!

[Clafou]

This is the sexiest set I've ever seen.

I WANT it, I just WANT it. The "Golden Ticket" keycap is a really nice touch btw.

[grik]

Of course I want one of these.
I sincerely hope this comes with a good price.
My last GB around 4 was a total wreckage, in the end I was happy but some keys missing because of my PT layout. 7bit come back dude

[tiltdown]

this is so yummy!

Most of the child deals are similar to the PulSE R2 group buy, so prices might be the same in some cases.

[chuckdee]

Have they reached out to you anymore?

[JaccoW]

It's a very sweet looking set (pun intended) that I'm tentatively interested in.
Just going to figure out the ISO 1800 support first.
That and it depends on my finances around then.

Please double check me but I think that you'd need:
1. Base kit,
2. Tsangan/Whitefox,
3. ISO Kit
4. UK or International (that depends on your layout).

I just checked out the PulSE prices! If that's the case, then I'll pick a base set + ergo as soon as it drops!

i found that there is lack of 2u shift for filco minila. i think if you want to support this layout, you should take a look at YURI keyset Adapter Mod kit.
hope this keyset will be successful, it looks so nice 

[JDragon]

For the MassDrop poll options, are the options split between 60% base vs TKL base? I see the DSA option also, no uniform SA option?

[Zambumon]

The base kit will be a TKL most likely.

I see the DSA option also, no uniform SA option?

The profile has been SA 1-1-2-3-4-4 from the very beginning and I don't have the intention to change it (I asked people what did they thought about 1-1-2-3-4-3).

Ah ok, thanks for the clarification, was out of the loop. Can't wait until this drops; that color scheme feels like just the ticket.

If the 1800 has win keys the spacebar is 6U according to the deskthority wiki and no one seems to be making spacebars in 6u.  I wonder if the molds exist for that.

SP doesn't make neither 6U nor 6.5U space bars, which sucks for the Corsair, Razer, and some Topre keyboards

Must have Golden Ticket! Saw the note that 5 of those was tempting. No. Not a good idea really. Will be down for a couple sets at least. Watching!

It's a bit disappointing that I'd have to buy a TKL + ergodox + dvorak/colemak just for ergodox dvorak layout. Are you gonna split the TKL base set into 60% and TKL child deal or not?

Damn all DARK and Sweet, who would of thought this would get all the white boys so wet and horny for this new Colour-way.

Even sign me up for this, when it happens because every single keyboard owner here on GH needs this set, to help break their virginity once and for all.
