if theres already going to be a limited run then why is there an interest check? is drop going to be a vendor too?I wanted to see if there was any interest in doing a larger run than 100 units.
No.This TBH.
unsurprised you're choosing to go with ifk again. Oversaturated and unfunny, but I can appreciate wanting to make a meme. Like I'm sure toby is a cool dude but I don't need him on my keyboard and I doubt anyone else would either.

When you a meme face set, they are usually have a reference to something relatively popular or that people find amusing, so it is an attractive product that people will purchase, correct? Well, I have no idea who Toby is, and I assume that a whole lot of others don't either. With Greg, it's a cartoon cat holding pills on a taobao deskmat. That is somewhat (subjectively) funny. Anybody can look at Greg and at least understand why it exists. When I see this, it's very... off-putting. The entire inspiration is - Toby? A guy with a cult following of 400 or so on instagram? I'm sure he is a good person but I would not appreciate having his pantone matched flesh colored keycaps on my keyboards. I think it's good that we have increasing choices to personalize and customize our keyboards. This is a bit much. Good luck

Once in a lifetime you'll come across a keycap set that truly captures the history and cultural distinctions of the modern world the way a person can subjectively perceive it through our guided field of perspective. I have to admit, I had my doubts when I first learned of the set. After all, PBT Toby? Will this set even be good? How ignorant was I to even have these thoughts. Little did I know I was about to indulge in what may have been the best $60-90 of my life. The set started out strong. The opening experience enticed the audience with a captivating enigma. I was so taken aback from the next-generation color matching that I almost didn't even realize the underlying symbolism in the ongoing colors. This is a special kind of high that not even the strongest of drugs can give you. Was I part of Toby? Am I inside Toby right now? This set will leave you questioning existential nihilism and the objective skepticism of our perceived valuation of anthropological existence. At this point in the use of Toby, I was fully intoxicated by the avant-garde design choice. But, then again, the fact that I'm living doesn't matter either so I might as well stick around for awhile, living in complete isolation, condemned to a life of traumatic memories and a completely corrupted sub-conscience. PBT Toby literally ruined my life. 10/10.
I also don‘t see any point of having the face of Toby on my desk. But can you not go a bit away from that „meme“ and bring the set with that colors as a normal set. You could add an extension kit for making Tobys face with this set.
But the colors are looking fine for me for a normal and not a meme set.
7u spacebar is forced accent or is there gonna be a regular coloured spacebar?I was a bit torn on what to do with the 7u, if enough people want it before final production starts I can change it but I don't think I could justify a 2nd 7u.

So, I agree with most of the commenters in that I don't see the point of this set and I don't find it particularly funny. But there are plenty of keycap sets that have run that I don't get/don't find as funny as the people that like it, and that's fine. And I get that people can be overly serious, and even occasionally toxic. But this weird campaign of playing the victim because you made a set that you knew would be polarizing and it got a mixed response is really off-putting. I'm sorry that someone called your videos lazy and uninspired, and told you to go **** yourself. That's obviously too far. But when your whole marketing campaign around this set is about how it's some sort of bastion of freedom against the oppressive forces of this community, it's way more unattractive than the set itself.MoreShow Image(https://i.imgur.com/QnH2NH3.png)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/kHg11Gd.png)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/EbwwnoT.png)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/Jp2ahAi.png)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/VE1p9nW.png)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/0hAFCCs.png)

I think that's fair, and no one has to like the set. But its slightly unfair to say my whole marketing campaign is playing the victim. (there's more to a marketing campaign then one rant on Instagram stories and mentioning that my post got maliciously reported) I'm making 100 sets of this, its not for money its for the meme. The sets will cost $~29 USD a kit to produce and I am aiming to sell them for $60-90 taking into account fees and logistics.
I'm not some martyr for keycap set design, I just have received a weird amount of hate and toxicity (twords me and not the set) for this and felt like calling it out. Mass flag reporting posts is not constructive feedback, and it's fair to document the odd toxic responses I've received so the community knows what's up. The point of this set was that it was not supposed to be made, but that I'm doing it because I'm a man of my word.
I do appreciate all the constructive feedback, and the people telling me they don't like it kinda rude, but fine, and not the hate I'm talking about.

In my experience keycap sets are never run at double or triple profit margin no matter how many account fees and logistics there are... if a set costs $29 per kit to produce (btw who are you using to produce this?) you should not be selling at $60-$90.

yeahhhhhh, the margins on most keycaps are waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay smaller than this. This is probably more than epbt margins.
This right here, there's a very high chance that Toby himself, or me, will be serving as the vendor. This means that I am fronting the production costs and not having it financed by a group buy or vendor.So, I agree with most of the commenters in that I don't see the point of this set and I don't find it particularly funny.

Most people run their sets through vendors who handle the bulk of the work.

Also you guys might have confused profit margins with sale price which is a fair mistake. I am still paying for prototypes (currently costing $118USD for a prototype) and packaging, and will need to ship them as well. I would love for you guys to provide some concrete evidence of your claims if possible, it would actually help a lot for making things more transparent which is what I'm trying to do. Once the whole set is made, I will have a full write up about how I got it done, the factories I used, the processes and costs I went through etc. I hope it will help the community feel more confident to do things themselves.
Anyways, I'm glad to talk about this more over on my discord, I tend to be in voice chat a lot over there.
