[GB] GMK Harvest

[Nutty]

Hello Geekhack!

My name is Nutty/Jordan and today I'm pleased to announce that this project has made it to Group Buy:

GMK Harvest

This is a relaxed fall themed set taking place in a more medieval setting. Major aspects of the set are focused around the harvesting of crops and fruit along with the added themes of trading wares such as animal pelts and drinking in a tavern. The set also has some inspiration from Japanese Mythology of Inari Ookami, who is the god of harvest and is depicted as a fox.

Here we go! Buying this on the weekend!

[rmendis]

When is the Keebstuff cable available for purchase?

[lush_bunny]

Bought Hiragana Base and Spacebars. Let's go!

[score62]

Is the row of a 2u key in novelties kit R1 or R2?

[Nutty]

Is the row of a 2u key in novelties kit R1 or R2?

The 2u key with that wheat on it is a r2 key.

When is the Keebstuff cable available for purchase?

Hopefully very soon. Keebstuff is currently just waiting on a new VAT ID before launching their sale.

[score62]

Is the row of a 2u key in novelties kit R1 or R2?

The 2u key with that wheat on it is a r2 key.

Then isn't there any novelty key for backspace?

[dvorcol]

[Nutty]

Is the row of a 2u key in novelties kit R1 or R2?

Then isn't there any novelty key for backspace?

This is my mistake, you are correct. The key is meant to be r1 for a backspace. I mislabeled the 2u as r2 instead of r1.
This is now fixed and I have sent off and informed my vendors of my error.
For clarification, here is the kitting.

Latin Base is out?

[polarzombies]

rip latin base

[Nutty]

Latin Base is out?

Yeah... Half of the GB period is over and it reached a total 30 orders and needs to meet a MOQ of 500.

Unfortunately numbers have not looking to good. So in hopes of reaching MOQ, vendors and I have decided it's best to kill of the Latin base kit to focus on the Hiragana base kit. I'm sorry to anyone that was previously interested in the set, things haven't been going too smoothly

I like the color scheme but we're already halfway through the GB and the orders are nowhere near half of the MOQ, feeling like this GB isn't gonna make it.

[//gainsborough]

YOU GOTTA BELIEVE!

[CookieFlow]

I had a feeling during the IC that Hiragana sub would do better, but sad to hear that Latin had to get cut for those that joined that base kit.

I'm still hopeful this set will make it, I just think August was maybe a bit of a tough month to launch with many popular sets launching in the last 2 months and people's wallets still recovering.

[polarzombies]

I'm just sad that the latin base got axed 😢

I am sorry to hear that. I feel for the people who prefer the Latin set, but I really really hope this set pushes through.

YOU GOTTA BELIEVE!

[polarzombies]

I prefer latin base but if we hit MOQ near the end of the GB I'll prob just go for Hiragana.

I don't see how this won't meet MOQ with vendors' extras. A small bump on the final day does help!

Sorry for the silence. I didn’t want to make any update if I wasn’t certain.
I didn’t want to risk spreading any misinformation, so I had to wait to discuss some things.

Currently waiting on a few more vendors to update and to see if they order extras.
Unfortunately the set didn’t do as well as we had hoped.
Vendor extras are a huge contribution to reaching MOQ so far, but still a bit aways.

From my most recent numbers;
Base kit is around 80 units away from meeting MOQ.
Spacebars appear as met on my graph, however it is still about 25 units from MOQ.
Asero key is about 10 units off.
Novelties, RAMA, and both deskmats have reached their respective MOQ’s.

I should have a solid answer weather or not it has hit all MOQ’s within the day hopefully.

Fingers crossed

How's the tally looking?

[lush_bunny]

I'm sweatin' here hope everything turns out alright

[Nutty]

The most recent numbers I see show that we have met MOQ's, but I am still waiting on some tentative extra numbers. Which means hopefully the numbers would only go up from here an not down.
Seeing that MOQ's were met did relieve me of a lot of stress, fright, and anxiety not knowing if we were going to make it or not.
I will get solid number shared as soon as I have them available.

So as of right now, the MOQ's have been met for all of the following:
Hiragana Base
Novelties
Spacebars
RAMA
Asero
Harvest Deskmat
Tavern Deskmat

Cheers!

[Bub]

Congrats on hitting MOQ, Nutty.

Grats!

Wow that Asero artisan was close

[Nutty]

GMK color samples are in!

I'm personally satisfied with how they look. I used some of my figures as references and they are pretty much on point.
I have taken some pictures, but please note that it might be a bit cool/blue looking as I haven't had the best weather recently. The pics of the keys on the RAL color deck were taken inside with white LED lighting.

Current eta is June but i have big doubt on that. My own estimate is August.

[lilredrobinhood]

I hate that I missed out on this set! If anyone ordered an extra or wants to sell theirs, please let me know!

Sorry! I sent out a mass email to my customers but forgot to update GH: We are officially in queue for production since September. The last I got from GMK is the set is on track to ship out in late Q1 2023.

Received an email from Mekibo saying that Harvest is being shipped to them.

[Dmitri]

R2?

R2?

Keep an eye out.  Some vendors might be selling R1 extras in the near future.

Sets should be shipping out now as I received tracking information from Mekibo.
