Let me know what you guys think are missing from this set.

How about an international set?

@Sherryton, so is there any chance of the tray getting a nice box upgrade (like the recent GMK Carbon drop?) if so that's i might go with the tray option. Anyone else here going with the tray option?

Huge Chance! We're working on a few with all existing production keysets and all future keysets.

GMK will send us a render today or tomorrow.
Does it mean I have to reorder it in tray? Or can you help me modify my order and I pay the difference?

Yes, if you can send us an e-mail then that would be perfect! :)

Please try to order by October 20.

I have to add a $3 paypal fee + $2 exchange rate fee to each item to compensate for the transfer rate. I under-estimated the currency.

How long until the first "real" price increase after that? I don't care about the $5 increase you are talking about, but I'd definitely want to order before anything drastical.

I think sherry mentioned that the price will go up when Sky Dolch will be in stock, somewhere in January

November 11 then mid-January.

The problem is that I have ordered over 250 sets, but over 100 sets has been occupied. I may have to change my order to get more from GMK, but it still might be limited between now and the time it comes in. I definitely want to keep enough to have for the store as well.

Miami Pack you meant?

It includes all the keys we previously had for our TU2 on MG1. We're just waiting on GMK for the renders, but they are have a lot on their plates.

Prices are going up yikes.

I thought prices would be the same for a while,

Original prices for all kits combined - $251

Now - $278

Is the price continuously going up?

I'm guessing it has to do with the exchange rate fee sherry mentioned.

Changes to the render: 'R4 Pg Up will be changed to R3. There will also be an additional 6u Spacebar.'

Sherry I'm afraid you're missing a 1u zero key for a 1800 numpad  :( Is this a rendering mistake or will this set not have that key? No point in including the other 1800 keys without this one

NEVER trust GMK renders for colors. I'm sure it will be the same light grey as always.

So I'm assuming this won't have true 75% support? The correct profiles that supports this is:

R2 - Page Up
R3 - Page Down
R4 - End

You bill Sky Dolch R2 as a 75% compatible keyset. There's not 1 R3 keycap for a 75% layout.

Shouldn't it at least be TADA68 compatible since it's your headline keyboard in that style layout?


I take it back, I missed the text at the bottom about the R3 Pg Up key. You can make a 68 and a 75 work with these keys.

Hey Sherry thanks for the reply. Now I guess to make things even more confusing lol. Now I checked back on your site and it looks like it has been updated to say that the F and J keys are scooped. However down below it says it comes with an extra barred set. Is that true?

If I order this along with the sky dolch accent will they be shipped together or seperately?

Sets will be shipped together unless purchased separately!
still hoping that the set would be sold as one bundle, it seems that it is not anymore? :(

And the time that I can save up monies is now gone, since the deadline is on October 18 haha

EDIT: what does the base kit include? is it the set inside a plastic case on the pre-order page?

Kits will be open until January! The base includes iso, hhkb, winkeyless, 104 base, and 1800 kit :)

This looks real good.
But you are running the GB for Sky Dolch but not Dolch, right?
And there seems to be no GB for Dolch at the moment.

Can I get just the modifiers set?
