Skull and Bones (pirate symbolism)
« on: Thu, 24 January 2013, 13:58:07 »
I've seen users post this novelty cap from group buys, but I haven't found a site that actually sells them. They usually replace the Windows key.

Will they ever be up for sale on techkeys.us?

The skull is one key I will probably not make out of respect for CC.

KeyPop has a more cute looking skull... http://www.keypop.net/product/dark-crossbones

and girlDC has the punisher skull...which if you are interested, you may want to subscribe to techkeys for updates.

Interesting. I don't see the resemblance to CCs, as the Skull and Bones design predates computers themselves. I did see the one on KeyPop, but it's rather cheesy for my taste. I just wanted a pirated keycap to match my pirated OS :P

Thanks for the insight.

Oh I thought I remembered something.

Put up a WTB thread, you may find some for sale. Not sure when this R2 will commence.

Honestly, I don't see Punisher in that skull so much as Soul Eater's adorable take on Death.
