Have any picks of it? Wanna see how it looks with the shrink.

i wish the shrink wrap was darker, but it'll do.

custom cable world definitely needs some more cable shrink colors - even a single, darker shade of grey would do

I made the suggestion to pexon a while ago, I hope they can find one

I never really thought about darker heat shrink, but for that cable it would definitely look nice. Unfortunately it seems like it is just not readily available in many colors after some (very) brief research.
Who knows, maybe 16 million color heat shrink will be The Next Big ThingTM

I just wish there was Cyrillic set like this. It's an insta-buy for me anway, can't wait for the poll and the drop. Hopefully it won't cost a fortune to ship it to Croatia/EU...

These would look freaking awesome on my new NerD60 setup with Royal Glam case and leather/wood wristrest. MAKE IT HAPPEN!  :eek:

I will update the main post, because others are probably curious too!

Yanbo (Massdrop dude who I gotta work with to make this a reality) has been in China for a couple weeks. However, he should be back soon (I got an estimate of a week from LSB) so I'm gonna say 10 days from yesterday is when I can start to make real progress with getting this set to production!

Sorry for going dark for a few days, but I can't really update this post when I have nothing to post :(

Warm regards,
Jessica Jimenez

Ah yes, of course, it can always be done in pack of blank along with Ergodox. I talk about ones with legend  :p
Hopefully someday there will be a GB with a purpose of creating new molds for future compatibility with some recently released board.

Jesus, with my NYE trip to London booked and all of the other things going on - I really don't want to miss out on this because it would be a dream come true as far as my setup goes. Is there any news about European proxy due to the huge taxes and import fees (my country has 25% tax...)

I have been wondering for weeks upon weeks why I really want this set. Then it hit me while I was replaying an old game.

I'm a huge final fantasy fan, and in Final Fantasy 6, my favourite character was Mog. Mog is a moogle. Here is a moogle.

I can not unsee, and therefore, I am definitely in for this as my first GMK keyset GB (Sorry jchan! I was super close on deciding on Hydro, but Porygon is my favourite Poke).
I'm going to keep calling this GMK Moogle to myself, cause I don't like the taste of plums. Thank you for the concept!

Great news! February ain't THAT far away - not to mention I have a birthday then so I'll have some cash stored for sure. Hopefully you'll be able to find the solution for EU buyers - or Massdrop won't be a massive d*ck with their shipment costs.

Looking forward to 7u (I guess it's a part of WKL set) spacebar and some novelties!

If it doesn't increase the cost a lot, and I'm assuming it doesn't, since they are just blanks, 2x 1.25 blanks would surely make a lot of people happy (obviously me included)

And I know you hate "Ctrl", but if you are not going to use the stepped 1.75 one yourself, a "Ctrl" on that would be awesome too

And congrats :)

1,6U is a rather good idea which  advance this set to more unique.Only WoB and Tiffany set has 6U currently.
2, This color-way and lay-out is worth waiting. Awaiting make this set sweetier and more charming.
3, Two months is not so long and leaving enough time for us, GMKers and GMK addicts , to save money for this.
GOOK luck and best wishes.

Honestly, the way the amount of groupbuys have escalated over the last year or so, it's becoming REALLY difficult to decide what to buy. I assume most of this is due to more people falling into the mechkey hole though, so at some point there might be some sort of equilibrium where the amount of groupbuys more or less fits the amount of buyers.

I don't know what the alternative is, but no trend ever lasts...
