Just to get this straight. Original kmac and kmac 1.2 have same case design (1.2 has blockers and harder anodization), while kmac 2 has completely new case design. Is it something like that?

Are there any significant improvements between the old design and the design of the KMAC 2?

I would hold on before making any purchase. I paid for one over 4 weeks ago and haven't gotten a reply about it or updates on what is going on. Now I have spent 400 bucks and not even sure what happened to it. I have messaged sherryton on originative, geekhack several times and still no reply.

I don't mind waiting for it to be manufactured but I remember it mentioned it that there was a few kmacs in stock and that it would arrive 2-3 weeks after order. Currently the order has no updates and it is still pending. If there was just a reply that it will take longer for it to arrive or that there was some issues that need to be resolved, then I would be satisfied as I can understand that. But to place an order and send an e-mail/message every week with no reply is not right. I have seen replies to other people who made orders on keycap sets etc. If the kmacs aren't going to be produced or in stock then just take it down and refund the people who have made an order.

This coming Wednesday would make it 5 weeks now. I sent an e-mail out every week on originative site and geekhack for the first 3 weeks. Now I have given up and hope that there is some reply sometime soon.

I've already had a look around, and I am aware of the differences in anodising, case slant etc. what I can't find any information on is the plate mounting. I know that the kmac 2 has rectangular areas for the screws which stick out from the plate whereas the kmac 1 and 1.2 have circular areas.. Does this yield any benefits? I should have been moe specific, sorry.

Kmac 1 and kmac 1.2 use old case with feet while kmac 2 has new design without feet (it has slope)

What did you pay with? Just do a chargeback to protect yourself. If sherryton really cares about it, then at the very least he can reply. He shouldn't hold money until he cleans up his act.

Let me put your choice to rest.  You can't get an LZ-GH as they're sold out.  Maybe you'll see one in the classifieds, but that still won't be for a while.

I was informed (I believe unintentionally) that the delays with KMAC are due to some shipments not having arrived from Korea. I can post the email I received from Sherry if you guys want confirmation.

This is what he literally sent me:
Quote
Dear [OJs name],

I am highly sorry.  I can cancel it to make it flat-rate (This was related to my order for something different).  The initial problem is because we are awaiting shipments from South Korea to finish packaging it.

Regards

I redacted my name and added the parentheses. I believe this email pertains to the KMAC2. I cannot prove this of course, but it would seem like a real possibility.

I currently do not have any spare Cherry Stabilizers.

The total for 3s and caps will be depending on the keycaps you are getting.

1.2 KMAC... I don't know if this also comes in an unanodized version... would be great if it did. If not the Titanium totally works.


Also... does anybody know if the top deck and plate are interchangeable between the 1.2 and the 2?

I actually believe this is possible.  I believe the 1 and 1.2 and 2 are all interchangeable on the top housing.
