Without the keycaps, I dont see how this is a "collab". Its a CU7 with another color and some new dials, basically.
Hopefully those keycaps can be included in the bundle.

After speaking with biip, I can confirm that we will be looking at adding keycaps into the base kit. In addition to this I am going to try to source a matching cable.
We understand the feedback, and really appreciate it.
-
Looks nice, so does this mean we will see more collabs in the future?
-
Please consider offering more dial colors.
I just don't feel the silver and especially the brass fit the Dots theme very well (personal opinion ofc).
I really believe it's a missed opportunity to not offer dials in the same colors of the Dots R2 kits (white, red, purple, green, yellow, orange, blue, grey if I'm not mistaken).
Or if it's too many at least some of them.
(I would have also liked to see a copper dial but I also agree that it doesn't match with dots but would be nice to have for other keycaps).
Since it seems you want to include Dots keycaps, does that mean this would only ship after Dots R2?
I think it's possible that Dots 2 ships in Late Q2 2022 but with all the GMK delays it could very well be Q3 2022 and that starts to be pretty long.

But....if the keycaps aren't included....what makes it a dots edition?

CU7 Dots Edition - Update 1
Update:
Since launching the IC a few weeks ago we have worked with GMK to explore the possibility of adding 6 Dots Keycaps to the CU7 Dots Edition Base Kit.
We are excited to announce that they are happy to produce the keycaps and we are currently finalising a timeline.
The price of the kit has been adjusted to £66.66(exVAT) / £79.99(incVAT).
In addition to this we are hoping to offer optional Aluminium Dots Coloured Dials alongside the Brass Dials. Furthermore the 6 Dots Keycaps available in the base kit will be available as an optional extra for those with existing CU7s.
Proposed Retail Pricing (may be subject to change)
• Base Kit Price (inc caps) - £66.66(exVAT)
• Additional Coloured Dials (Aluminium) - £8.33(exVAT)
• Additional Bras Dial / Polished Brass Dial (Silver PVD) - £16.66(exVAT)
• Additional Dots Keycap Pack (Same Colour as base kit, just for those that want caps only) - £12.49(exVAT)
Anodising vs Cerakote
We are exploring both Anodising and Cerakote for the finish of the Aluminium Pieces.

15£ more for 6 keycaps seems a bit excessive

But they are included in the base price.

Not sure what you mean?
The previous price was :£64.99 now it moved to £79.99 and unless I missed something the only change was to add the 6 Dots Keycaps.
I'd rather take the previous deal.
