Got the base and enter key, can't wait!

May I ask what the inspiration for the RAMA enter key design is? Is that "hihihi"?
Trying to decide whether I should pay a little extra for that RAMA goodness!

We will try to get some updated numbers soon. Currently on our way back from Keycon.
Numbers are solid on NovelKeys' side already though. At 70 base kits. :)

Looks great!
Curious about the alpha color, is it simular to carbon?

So I decided after seeing this set to do my first build. I'm getting the caps but I was wondering if someone could tell me who makes some of the various shells shown in the photos. Like the green TKL for example. Or the grey one underneath it.
Thanks in advance! :D

The shells You are talking about are cases. Most of them are either already sold out or future releases. Green one resembles Rama U80-A but the colour is fictional it doesn’t exist it that colour. There is a GB for it if You wish to buy it. https://ramaworks.store/products/u80-a?variant=16277183791147

Sales have been steady everyone!
Current numbers (with a couple proxies having outdated info)
Base - 234
40's - 37
Spacebars - 136
With extras we are basically to MOQ on everything. I can confidently say that all kits will be produced for this set! Thanks to everyone who joined already. We already have color samples in hand, but want to make some slight adjustments to better fit Olivia's vision. We will keep you posted on all of that.

Any way you could let us know what the price drops will look like? Either way, very excited for this set.
Thanks to everyone involved and best of luck with this group buy.

I don't think there are price drops. $125 is pretty solid imo

Agreed. Quite solid, especially considering what all is included in the base kit.
I'm talking about the spacebars and 40s kits, though. The bar graph indicates price drops for those kits at 150 units sold.

For anyone who is unaware, Novelkeys is also selling Nolives, the perfect switch to pair with the keyset!

At this point, with the proxies numbers not being updated, I think base 1,000 is very doable.

In for a Base kit, Spacebar kit, and RAMA Enter.
New to the hobby, but had to say that Olivia has a great talent for crafting soothing colorways. This color palette is very relaxing to stare at during long typing sessions. Can't wait to pair it with my future RAMA U80-A. :thumb:
-
And just like that, this GB is over.
We had a good burst of sales in the final day. Currently working proxies for fully updated numbers. Once I get that, I will make the final kit numbers available.

Final numbers (includes extras!)
Base - 1,000
40's - 165
Spacebars - 516
Rama - 226
We are already in the process of color sampling. Olivia received the first colors, and we had to tweak the green slightly. The cream and black color are approved though! Expect some pictures after we get the next round of samples in.
Thanks again everyone!

Based on the picture, I assumed you got the kit, have you noticed any defects on keycaps like what happened with Wavez and Oblivion?
-
At this moment I have not no. But I’m also not someone that checks each keycap for defects tbh. I’m more of a “oooeeeehhh nice colors me like!” kinda guy.

Does anybody else have an issue with twisted stems? Here are some of the more worse ones on mine. A ton of the other caps are twisted as well, but less so and harder to take picture of. GMK 3run for comparison.
https://imgur.com/a/UrThTCB
@mgsicker Maybe something to tell GMK to check so it doesn't happen to other sets?
-
You are not alone, seeing similar results.
-
I am as well.
-
Didn't notice it, but from my photo you can see the W and U look a bit off. Same keys look off in your photos. I can't tell when it's in front of my and i'm typing though, only if I lean over the board and look from straight above.
-
That's why I sold mine, though I was also disappointed in the color matching. $140 for a gmk set and GMK cannot even get the keycaps to be straight. My spacebar was also somewhat warped.
-
Same here. I noticed it a few days ago that some of the caps looked a bit off and was wondering if that might have been soldering. I'll take another look tonight when I'm home but good chance I'm encountering the same problem.
Edit; checked, have the same issue. It's mostly (if not only) on R2 though, so that surprised me.
-
This is my concern with the massive backlog they have. Feel like their QC has dropped significantly.

Not only W and U but that whole row looks off, also left shift is a bit weird or was it angle of camera?
-
From what I remember, the I, Y, and U were really off. Some keycaps below that wrre crooked as well, though not as bad.
Also gmk really needs to work on the numbers legends. None of them look like they're on the same plane and too much thickness inconsistencies.

Some pictures. Last 2 are Olive only, first 2 with some minimal caps in between.

I agree that the legends are not great on this as well. Even before I saw this comment I noticed that the ? looks skinny and the shift is Shift.
GMK 3run for comparison.

Do all sets have issues with twisted stems on some keys? I just ordered this set and didn't see this thread beforehand.
-
Most likely, yes. This also probably effects most GMK sets that have run since olive as well. It really isn’t that noticeable. People are expecting too much from these plastic bits. I have seen slight inconsistencies in almost every finished keyboard I own. You can have issues with keycaps, switches sometimes have slightly crooked stems, and it is also possible to have slightly rotated switches when using plate mounted switches instead of PCB mounted. So many variables. Don’t get too caught up in perfection. The set is still quite nice.

The twisted stems on my set are 100% noticeable.

I guess this is all subjective. I don't mind slightly imperfect legends. But the crooked thing is very easy to notice. Symmetry seems to be a key thing our brains lock on to.

Anyone know why the rama cap says RAMA x Olivia and not RAMA x Olive?
-
Definitely hoping I can grab a set of these at some point, I really like the color choices.

Olivia is the designer of the set.

Olivia is the designer of the set.
I know, but just historically the engravings for rama keycaps are named after the set, not the designer.
