[IC] MDA PLASTIC

[BUGER]

"PLASTIC"

This is MDA keycap,by Melgeek.

Inspired by “off-white" 's double quotation marks.So it's named after the material of the keycap.And the height and length of different key caps are marked in large quantities.On some personality keys, I wrote some slogans in quotation marks. Of course, they were all jokes.

INFO
The keycaps, made of high quality PBT material, which is wear-proof and feels comfortable.
Dye-sublimated legends
Ergonomic Design: ortholinear layout, maximize the contact area between the fingertip and the keycap, which is comfortable to type on.

About GB
Time, price and agent to be determined,but it will be updated in the short term.

Any suggestion or idea for keycaps, please feel free to leave message or email to me. 804559969@qq.com

THANK YOU!

Looks good.. but the row and key size information is a bit redundant. I'm also afraid it will look a bit blurry because it is so small

Edit: The material is a plastic, it isn't just plastic.

I really like it other than that!

Been waiting to buy a set of MDAs to try.

Thank you ! In fact, MDA has the top technology of single-sided thermal sublimation. These words will be very clear. There will be real samples before GB.

COOL!! Hope this is worth waiting for!

[ycanales]

Interested! Really cool color scheme and typography.
Are all space bar sizes convex?

Yes!This is  the most space I've ever done.

So I already know what MDA set I will buy to try that profile out...

The MDA set I have, big bone from melgeek, has the sharpest printing I have every seen. It was the first thing I noticed when I got them in. Here is a link to photo some of keys https://imgur.com/a/TikEZL9

I want this set really bad!

[bthezebra]

It's definitely interesting, trying to capture an "off white" style in a keyset is definitely a challenge, interested to see how this goes as it develops.

I would be expecting something slightly non standard with high contrast. Maybe an accent in a lesser used area than typical accent spots.

[BUGER]

These are being confirmed,I will update the information here.

[syberghost]

Life in plastic, it's fantastic.

[DALExSNAIL]

I do think one addition I might add personally, would be a much thicker " / / / / / / / / " pattern on say an enter key, would be super tight on this one too. I know there are some smaller ones here, but one similar to the sole on this would be dope:

HELL no...i like the thin lines just the way it is. Maybe include in the novelties if you must.

That's what I'm saying bruh, it's a super prevalent theme in Off White as a whole, and kind of one of his calling cards. They're not exactly known for thin lines lol.

[bowen]

never thought i'd see off-white and keyboards crossover
but i like it, thinking of doing orange versions of the shift/enter and spacebar novelties?

e: better name would be "KEYCAPS" or "KEYBOARD" imo

Not very familiar with MDA kit layouts but would be nice if one of the orange space bars could make it into the base kit. Regardless something interesting about this set gets to run.

Thank you,about accent,I don't think that's the original intention of the design,but you can enjoy "off white" style~~

Yes, the thicker slash is "his" calling cards,and I hope to be inspired to produce different design languages, which is not a simple imitation.Obviously, everyone can feel that style,but it can fit the key cap better. :D

The orange versions of the shift/enter and spacebar novelties already have,isn't that enough?

I mean one similar to the white space bar novelty. With the “THIS IS PLASTIC” as a legend instead the lines like the other orange caps.

oh ,I see,I have tried it, but because of the heat sublimation, it will destroy the overall refreshing feeling.

It's... weird, for sure, but somehow I still like it
Any chance of a Japanese sublegend kit? Like your recent (current?) MDA Mihon? It'd be even better if the sublegends can be in orange.

No Japanese,because the font is completely different,I think it's enough now,hope you like it!

Make a NorDe kit for this set, pretty please!

I have a MDA kit and it's a great profile, but the lack of ÅÄÖ makes me sad.

Turns out I also quite like this.  It reminds me of a short film / art installation I saw some time ago about the lives of factory workers in the near future: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/08/23/arts/design/cao-fei-china-guggenheim-discussion.html

Thank you for sharing,the film is full of cold industrial feeling.Maybe soon we won't need the keyboard.

Reminds me of prescription pill bottles. I don't know why.. just get a 'medical' vibe from it.

I was thinking something along the lines of heavily accented "$" signs or enter and backspace keys that say cop or not.

I think it is too much work though.

Cool!These ideas may be used in the next design.

[WillyWortel]

I love it. Idea: It would be great if you replace the function key sub texts with most common IDE shortcuts. E.g. debugging shortcuts "step in" "step out" etc.

[carlouws]

Would it be possible to have the two novelty spacebars in 7u?

[vyoming]

Love the idea

[monteyalps]

I'd be in for at a minimum a novelty set. Although knowing me and my wallet we will probably go all the way with a full kit.

[kokugatsu]

You've piqued my interest.

Just not a fan of the chinese text in the novelties

[WillyWortel]

I also love the white keyboard case with the orange accents around the key islands (4th picture). I would totally buy it if someone can produce these.

[melgeek]

Been waiting to buy a set of MDAs to try.

Thanks , you can always find MDA keycap set on MelGeek www.melgeek.com )

[evilpp]

Interested. It's a nice departure from k/b culture into trendy fashion.

However, not a fan of Chinese characters/typography though.

This has been of interest for a while now.  The MDA profile looks very interesting and I would consider a set if this goes ahead.  I have to say that every time I take a look at this, it grows on me a little more each time.

The most visually cohesive concept I've seen in a while. Only thing I'm not a fan of is the alternate '@' symbol which is distracting.

I love this so much, been looking for a reason to try out MDA and I think I found it

[amarotea]

Wow that deskmat—I for sure would be in for something like that.

[BMO]

Wow a off white set would be a nice addition!
Also, why not contact Virgil. Maybe he is interested in collabing.

[kjang]

Saw this released on Drop today. Interesting concept

[hottrout]

Was surprised to get a message from DROP that this is now for sale.  I am going to go with a set to be able to use MDA.

[jbrandona119]

Ordered the base, modifiers, novelties and deskmat! Hope it goes nicely with one of the boards I eventually get lol

[hottrout]

I am ordering base, ISO, Novs and Mods.  Please please please would you add one more space key top the novelty kit?  Please add another ROW4 6.25 space in the green colour but without the THIS IS PLASTIC.  Instead keep in green but maybe just add the smaller text or even the graphoc from the orange keys.  I love the colour choice on thie set but I really dont like the THIS IS PLASTIC and this is the only green space bar in the kit.

[m1gs]

I think instead of "THIS IS PLASTIC", "KEYBOARD" would be better.. Also in "CLOTH", "DESK MAT". Just my two cents.

[beekey]

Only complain, no 7u „plastic“ space key.

I have no special love for drop but why are people so against it.

For me it's their piss-poor customer service and overall lack of integrity. The final straw was when they sent some artisans with blatant manufacturing defects (not 'broken from use' or whatever, it was clear they had been made with the stems wrong). I was traveling at the time and when I got back to receive the package it was past their 30 day return policy. Some things I can understand that on but not things which shouldn't have even been shipped if they had any remote concept of quality control and were unusable as received.

[hottrout]

I say again Please please please would you add one more space key top the novelty kit?  Please add another ROW4 6.25 space in the green colour but without the THIS IS PLASTIC

I have already ordered all kits except the additional space bars.  Please consider adding the one additional space bar.

[enjoidis]

I just had to get this. I didn't have a choice. I needed it. So yeah, I got base, novelties and ISO. Great job Buger!

Did i miss out =(

[Boey1219]

you are not missing out any more than people who bought the set.. there is currently a hailstorm from the community on the lack of information on the status of the order. a lot of people have already canceled their orders. so you might get luckly on Drop when they relist these canceled orders. Melgeek drop the ball..

Edit: Spelling

[jbrandona119]

I also canceled my order and got my money back. I was super excited about this set but after the constant delays and no communication I lost trust in the GB. I think it was supposed to be delivered in August lol. But I swear I thought they had a GB on taobao and had those all ship but they could’ve been knock offs, not sure.

Edit: just read through some drop comments and one from September 27 said the Chinese GB didn’t ship either.

[dvorcol]

Melgeek said yesterday that most keycaps are made, just waiting on spacebar.
