Not my colors or profile, but I love the approach of the face and theme. Not the same meme formatted face and not part of the main kit to make it optional. GLWIC!

the colors are perfect but I would love to see this in a different profile

better support for 40s and split boards would also be very much appreciated

This profile is quite comfortable for my daily use, so I don’t plan to change it :thumb:

Very nice!!! A different profile and colors then im sold. Tho, I think changing the colors will not match the concept. Awesome stuff eitherway.

Very cool, always love your stuff York Chan!
I really enjoy Pokémon (especially ghosts) and MG profile, so this is gonna be a day one buy for me.

What an awesome design! I definitely agree with a different profile, possibly cherry. MG looks super comfortable to type on(never tried it, just having a guess coming from SA) but if I wanted to switch keys around with other sets there are limited options with MG.

In the mega kit, is the N key supposed to be pink? it isn't in the render

Post by: Havattack on Fri, 22 January 2021, 12:56:11
HELL YEAH! Finally, a neon pink of purple mono set! AND, in a "SA-like" form! If the alpha's had some Katakana sub-legends, it would trully be my PERFECT set.

Thank you for your support, because the factory is lack of sub-legend tools, so there is no way to increase.

Love the profile, love the colors. The quality of MG caps is amazing.
Now I'm just waiting for that split spacebar and ISO support.
Can't wait for GB!

Not sure how I feel about the profile as I’ve never tried it but I really like the colors. The novelties look good. May get in on this set. GLWIC

So sorry, Since MELGEEK does not have iso and short spacebar tools, it will not be supported.

Unfortunately not for this set...I talked to MELGEEK and he said they are planning to add ISO support this year, so I'm still hoping for a R2 with ISO add-on.  ;D

I have confirmed with MELGEEK just now and there is no such plan for now. If add iso, I will join it as soon as possible, because iso is also my favorite :thumb:

Damn, I can confirm...I also talked to him again. While it is planned, there is no fixed plan yet. It is quite an investment, because of the added molds.

This looks really nice. I’ve been curious about MG for awhile, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen ortho support. The group buys usually seem to be one or two large kits. For example, I don’t think I’ve ever seen the alphas kit separate from mods. Is there a technical reason for this or is it just because of high price vs low interest?

The design and colors look sick! Katakana sub legends would take it to another level in my book too, but it could appear too busy to others. This would be perfect as my first MG keycaps, have always wanted to try their stuff. Can't wait!

Yeapp I saw it, however now that i think of it even if they could it might not be the best idea with how the colors are. It's like SA's laser, sub legends kinda make'em look a bit too busy.

I could not disagree more. Sub-legends make every set look better.  ;)
