This will be in Pick-a-Profile, which means you may choose from SA Row 1, SA Row 3, and DSA. Or you can be like many and choose all three...
as you mention Polycarbonate Translucent, is it like the RELEGENDABLES keycap in Pimpkeyboard (Attachment Link) (Attachment Link) ?
Any chance to include the Vault boy again? Or replace vault 21 with Vault boy :thumb:
Zero, when do you think this GB is going to run? :)
Cost is something people are worried about. If I were to cull this back to say 12 keys for $40 (getting rid of Vault 21), would that be better?

The price point definitley makes it more attractive, but I'd rather not loose the vault 21.
Also, we already have so many mini nukes! And it'd be nice to have some vault keys in different colors.Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/g8NLY6X.jpg)

Then, I may open up single colorway sets in addition to compete 16 key sets. Thinking each 4 pack of a single color to be $20 USD. Then, full sets are discounted by $15 ($65) if they go that route. It makes is a little more complex on my end, but it ensure everything still gets made.
I will try to sent out a mass email to those who have opted in for email updates in the past few GB's and Extras. This will happen soon, definitely not today. We need more buzz to be generated in this IC phase...I will not go through another GB failure (see Matrix/Blanks GB disaster)

Thanks, as always.
Prices lowered to $50 USD for a set of 16 keys...That is a great deal. I am a terrible person to ask for feedback to, as I am going to be buying anyway, but I will gladly help with marketing endeavours once you go live.

Looks like April Fool's Day for start (tentative)
Two things:
1. I just realized I started the Megaton Vault GB on April 1st last year. Very cool.
2. SP just approved all 3 new legends for production.
So, I will be sending out emails to those who opted in for them as to the particulars of the planned GB.

How does one opt in for these emails :p ?
Also, if its $10-$15 shipping per order regardless of number of sets, could I try to gauge interest from international buyers? (would be mainly located UK) to reduce shipping fee per person? Would help reach MOQ as well probs (apologies if this is somehow inappropriate though, unsure of rules/etiquette)

People who have purchased from me in the past using the form whether GB or Extras sale have a survey question to which they either answer yes or no to being on the email list.
As for the other, by all means. I have people who create their own sub group buys in their country/region/area and then submit a bulk order to me to fill. I have no problem with this, and you are right it will help get to MOQ. I will say that I am not responsible for orders done in such a way once they leave my possession, it is up to the GB leader in each respective country. I will not be accountable for some sort of shinanigans someone else is trying to pull on others (see IvanIvanovich Miami Nights as an example of how not to do a GB).

cool :) will keep in mind. Also throwing the banner in the signature
I hope I didn't miss this. If not, what's the timeframe looking like to submit form?

Did not miss a thing. We hope to get it up on April 1st and last probably 2-3 weeks depending on how it goes. I will be posting a GB thread link here when it starts and closing this IC as per the GH protocols.
Red with white text please!

Red ABS? It may still be too soon for this...

If this did get culled this back... I'd say DEFINITELY keep vault 21, keep the Blue/Yellow, and the Red/green poly, but ditch the silver+black. I guess see others liking the silver/black... I just don't know how common that is, and I get that maybe that fits the whole vegas chips theme, but it just... doesn't jive with anything else I got. I'm not sure it really honestly pays to split color sets up. If three color sets costs almost the same as the whole batch of four, then it only pays if you want one or two colors. I think the risk there is not meeting MOQ.
I'm definitely in for Row 3... I'm heavily invested in row 3, with my Danger Zone keyboard. In all honesty, I'm starting to really like DSA more and more, ever since getting a DSA-like typewriter from a thrift shop with Marquart switches.
I'm just not sold on the silver/black. Everything else... EPIC!
I see the vault keys as... I don't know, almost like trophies, to be honest. Just as special as the other designs, like the bombs, the Brotherhood helmet, the Nuka-Cola, etc... Cotta catch 'em all, right! ;D I don't know off the top of my head just how many vaults have been featured across all the games, but several have been prominent, and I'd love to see them all featured eventually. Each Vault key is representative of a place in the Fallout universe. The unique novelty icons are the fun ones, the cool keys to have... But the Vault keys... They speak to the Fallout theme!
For me, I'd rather give up a color set than give up any of the unique symbols depicted on the actual keys, vaults included! :D
As for DSA... I literally have nothing in DSA, so it's so hard for me to invest in anything DSA. That's compounded by the fact that I only have general need for three keyboards... My Danger Zone key set to go with my Kerbal Space Program instrument panel (and is the keyboard that gets the Fallout themed keys), my Apple //c based wireless keyboard, which I hope to build someday, and the typewriter key caps I got for my 1939 Philco radio cabinet PC case... I'm not one to change up my keyboards. I get something, and then stick with it for a decade and a half, fix it, replace it, cry when it's gone, and build an epic custom keyboard, realizing I never knew how good it could be.
I would DEFINITELY use DSA on the wireless keyboard, if I were doing it from scratch, but I'm not. I have a sweet Alps Amber keyboard out of an Apple //c, and I'm dead set on using those AMAZING Alps switches. If Danger Zone ever re-released in DSA... Eh... I might actually consider buying into DSA, but unless that ever happens no can do. Gotta stick with the SA R3 set!
As for this set of keys in SA R3... Like I said, I'm 120% in! :p
Since there have been those requesting a change for Silver/Black colorway, I have added the following Material Survey Form to OP: Material Survey Form (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd4Fmu4LbI638jptt9V0WxA2TurKh54zmU7tLbawUxrI-5z-A/viewform?usp=send_form)
I am pondering replacing Metallic Silver/Black ABS with another colorway. If you had a choice, what would colorway would you like to see in its place?(Remember, when talking about color combos, as in print media, it's Text/Legend color "on" background/surround color, i.e. WoB and BoW)
- Don't remove it! I like the Silver & Black ABS
- White on Black ABS
- White ABS on Blue Polycarbonate
- White ABS on Orange Polycarbonate
- White ABS on Yellow Polycarbonate

This questionnaire is ambiguous in its wording and a little confusing. If I'm understanding it correctly, I'd amend the form for clarity's sake:

tempted to get a set in R3.....
As a cheapass, I gotta ask. Any chance of a small discount for larger orders since price includes shipping?

So, this is what happened with the wording. The title section only gives so many characters that you can see. So, I was writing it in a stream of consciousness style and it was horrible. Since I typed out my thoughts in paragraph format, I gathered the thoughts a little better...sorry for any confusion.
Ah, got it. Submitted.
Due to an underwhelming response regarding colorways, as Overseer of this here Vault, make the following proclaimation: Black on Metallic Silver will be the 4th colorway in the Junktown II set. However, I acknowledge that many would like to see colorful PC colors and White on Black. So, may there ever be a next time. Overseer out.

Hopefully there's enough interest for this group to run. Maybe in the future running less caps at a lower cost might be a good idea.

I don't think it should be that much of an issue. Zero's keys are top notch and the Fallout theme attracts a following. The more caps the better. :thumb:
