It looks nice, but doesn't covering the forehead of the PCB defeat the purpose?

I think you'll want a transparent window to show the through=holes.

Otherwise, it just becomes any other TKL.

Exactly this. The joy of mysterium is the through-holes, covering them just makes this a TKL with a big forehead.

Yeah, i know what you mean, would a PC version of this case seem like a good idea?

PC or a window option might be nice.

now that I've completed a couple of Mysterium PCB's, I'd love to get a case for it and this is now at the top of my list.

I'm with others and having the 5head have some type of visibility would be awesome and much needed for this case.

would be necessary imho, not seeing the bits inside completely negates the reason anyone has a Mysterium.

I vote for alu with clear material window for the components

Like what everyone said, I think its better if there's a window to show the pcb components.

In addition, a translucent PC case would look pretty sick as well. Kinda like those old school translucent Gameboys

I agree that a forehead window is necessary. I'd prefer an acrylic/glass window to a full pc case though.

I also think it would look better with less of a radius on the corners, but that's just my preference.
