I am really excited for this. Very likely to be my first group buy.  Just love the colors, flair, and value.

So whats going on with the colors in this set? TKC renders use way different colors, and most of the renders are glossy (not to mention some of their keyboard renders are at best 360p), but then they include some matte renders that show different colors again? Comment on reddit about the issue got deleted...

I don't really have any jurisdiction over the group buy anymore, so I can't really speak to any of this (comment on reddit was deleted because the renders were changed and now there's a different issue). TKC has offered to do no-questions-asked refunds for customers who are unsatisfied with the physical colorway. As for myself, I believe the matte renders are the most accurate (because PBT plastic isn't glossy those renders are probably just flukes) but again, I can't say for sure.

Guys, I'm really not sure what's going on with zFrontier. TKC handles all the matters with their proxy vendors so please feel free to message them or post on Discord or Reddit to get their attention and try to get something to happen. I'll keep you guys posted if anything happens on my end or the GB goes live on the site but until then please address your concerns to TKC. Thanks and sorry for the inconvenience.
