(https://imgur.com/5F0lAmA.jpg)

CHANGE LOG (04/27/2021)
- Pricing lowered from $465 to $430
- ISO support has been added (there will be a dedicated plate for ISO layout)
- Ilumkb added for AP & OCE (with 50 units)
- Units slightly increased from 300 to 375
- Gasket pocket size has been increased slightly to reduce compression on gaskets (this is to give a softer typing experience)
- Mercury65 will now ship with an aluminum plate (highest voted plate material to ship with)
- Second crescent moon position has been changed to represent Saturns moon Titan
with more changes to come if needed and a round two of prototypes!

(09/23/2021)
We have been very busy working on mercury and forgot to update here in a while!
- R2 prototypes have been received and images have been posted on our discord (turned out amazing)
- Deskmat protos have arrived as well images posted on discord!
- Streamers will be sent units for builds, links will also be posted in our discord

Thanks so much for the support from the beginning of this project till this point it means a bunch!

Man this looks great! That bottom piece's engraving is astounding. Only things I was thinking about was maybe some larger feet at the bottom (but that's just nitpicking), and also maybe curving that brass backpiece right above the usb-c port. It comes to a sharp intersection right above the usb port, and I was just thinking curving it a bit so that it fit with the curvature of the usb-c may look better. Aside from that, looks great and a bit curious about front height. GLWIC!

That being said, I wish you and your team the best and I hope gb goes smoothly  :thumb:

Love the board. Any chance of at least getting iso support on the PCB? Getting a custom plate made is a lot easier than a PCB.

I really like the badge design and top profile, but I think the stars in the bottom engraving take away from the central row of planets a bit. The back profile and USB cutout also aren't as appealing to me, but I'm not sure how flexible that design would be this late in the process- it looks a little bit harsh and blocky for me. Other than that, great board! You've clearly put a lot of time and effort into both the design and IC. GLWGB!

1. super recessed port? can we see another angle?
2. what happened to the plate render? could we see a stand-alone plate render?
3. adjusted front-height? EKH?
4. overall mass?

Firstly thanks for your comment! Agreed we missed a bit of important information its our first IC post and we overlooked some stuff, but we will be updating the posts as things progress with more information. For your questions, the port is being slightly changed in the next round of prototypes but it is a bit recessed but nothing that would cause any issues or concern. Here is an image of the first brass prototype plate https://imgur.com/a/vRXzf52. The board has a front height of 19mm with a high profile of 7.5mm and an unbuilt weight of 3.6 lbs.

Please don't judge too harshly on that first typing test. We admit it was our first time recording one, and that was done in a hollow room with the CAMERA microphone. We are awaiting R2 prototypes and will be uploading much better ones and hope you change your mind :) we appreciate the feedback.

Are we able to choose between the hot swappable or solder pcb?

I do hope that i can snag one too. Would be my first gb.  :D

All units will ship with a solder pcb, and hotswap is an extra addon. We know this may not be ideal, but since this will be our first keyboard group buy we wanted to do this to ensure that fulfillment is as quick as possible.

Wow, this is is an absolutely beautiful board. Do you have any build streams planned for it?

Does ISO support have split left shift? The pictures on https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=112157.msg3034746 seems to state it doesn't?

Sorry for asking, did the GB never happened?, I can't join any Discord Sever as I have reached the servers limit long ago and I don't have Nitro.
