Hi! This is an IC for Add-on kits to be used for White on Black/variants and many other renowned GMK sets with CR or WS1 color.
Inspired by Sega™ Enterprises, Ltd.'s HSS-0130 Astro City Arcade Stick & Astro City Arcade machine :

Astro Buttons Kit
WS1 legend color on Yellow, Pink and Green keycaps. Hiragana Sublegends on WASD keys.
Dark Astro Kit
Yellow, Pink and Green legend color on CR keycaps. Hiragana Sublgends on WASD keys.
Blanks Kit
4x Blank Pink/Green/Black R2, 4x Pink/Green/Black R3 + homing/scooped key included.

Pink and green have a high chance to use custom color (I have the physical plastic sample ready for both colors). The rest is GMK stock colors.
Comparison of Pink and Green I envisioned vs GMK stock color (MG1 and AE):

Really cool idea, would just like to add that the common GMK WoB sold by Drop has no sublegends, including the option to have no sublegends might be preferred by some.

You should definitely use stock colors. For MOQ 150.

MOQ 250 would be impossible. Not even Beige Addon hit MOQ without buyout.

And this is more niche than Beige Addon and WOB Addon.

Feedback submited, looks great! AE color looks a little bit dull on the comparison.

Thanks for the current feedbacks and the kind words so far.

Choosing between partial custom colors or all stock colors if it significantly decrease the price of the kit(s). This step can only be done when asking GMK for quotes.
Considering if the WASD should be without sublegend for aesthetics(?) and/or compatibilities with other sets
Maybe a base kit + novelties kit if future lead vendor and I are confident.

this is so ****ing cool.
wrote down in the IC form that i'd love to see a spacebar kit with these colors. i understand the worry that this might be too niche to warrant custom colors but this such a cool idea, put me down at the very least for one!
