The original keycaps are doubleshot ABS keycaps made by Comptec in the DCS profile. Comptec later became the familiar manufacturer Signature Plastics, who will be producing these compatibility kits. Original Wyse keycaps are widely available and usually very cheap.

GLWIC, Jampot! In for each set ;D
Nice. Finally after years of hoping for this. In when it runs.
10u with 7u stems por favor.
realised i need like 12 keys from this moogle kit, and i am paying 110$ for it.
6u spacebar maybe? For the true HHKB enjoyers.
We love Jampot!! GLWIC - Looks fantastic :cool:
This is great to see. I am in for at least the PCE kit.
My DCS Wyse is sitting in a bag waiting for this to happen.
Set so good I had to cop an extra wyse set in ebay

I'm in for every kit. Hope it runs this time!!

So awesome, definitely in for all three kits! I have a few different OG DCS sets that have weird sized mods, I can finally at least use the alphas of them with these, plus filing out my Wyse sets! Awesome work Jampot!
Great project :)
Praying for higher MOQ and lower price PCE kit
we don't even get alphas wallahi we are finished

I would suggest splitting the kits into smaller kits to reduce the price for some buyers and removing some keys. 2020 Wyse Moogle cost under $40 for PCE and under $20 for ASCII. However, with much less keys included obviously.
If I am buying both PCE and ASCII at current pricing, I could also just buy a whole base kit of another set for the same price instead.
Pretty cool project.
When it comes to kitting, probably would be best to see another b key in the PCE kit, just so people don't have to use two wyse sets and a 1u alt in the extensions kit, as that fills out mx hhkb support with the 1.5u supers.
Other than that, 6u bar would be cool somewhere as well as well as 00 key.

Is it possible to have the ASCII set legends top left aligned, to better match the originals? Versus center left?

Hiya, thanks for the feedback
I did consider this, but personally I like the look of the text+icon mods more, I think it suits DCS a lot better (I am not a huge fan of text-only mods). Also, since I am combining ASCII support and DEC support into one kit, I don't think it will mean a reduction in the number of keys to be purchased.

So the idea is meant to be a compatibility set, not a full keyset - it is intended to allow you to use vintage DCS keycaps from WYSE terminal keyboards with current layouts - TKL, 65% etc.

so why kill the full kit that could be for people who wants this but have no access to old discontinued keyboards?
Even though we had the opportunity to buy the full set via GB (e.g. DCS SMRT), it's really sad that we can only use this set normally by purchasing an NIB-grade Wyse Terminal keyboard that's hard to get now and extracting the keycap.
Don't you really have a plan to include a TKL base set?
I mean it's not like you have to use caps from a NIB Wyse board. IME if the board wasn't used to the point the caps are severely shined & the caps aren't stained with anything they usually clean up ok. Most of my OG thin DCS sets I want these for are used already.
There's also an eBay seller that has been cranking out caps listing rn. Probs saw this post lol. $45 + $20 shipping though.I actually ordered these a few days ago, before this post went live (or at least that I saw)

For folks who saw my own Wyse DCS set posted last night, I wholeheartedly endorse this, and will be changing my own set to SA profile so it doesn't conflict. We really had no idea about each other's efforts, and it was a case of weirdly coincidental timing. That said, I'm happy to see a Wyse-themed DCS set coming from anyone, even if it's not mine. I really hope this goes well, and wish the designer nothing but the best.
Latest update - this is now on hold as I am waiting for updated renders and also waiting for improvement in SP prices. Unfortunately, I am not happy to run this at current SP prices as they are too high from what I would expect given the quantity of keys.

Hey,
Did you ever receive those keycaps?
Whoops, yes I did super sorry but I appreciate the reminder.
Wyse PCE keycaps are definitely goddessy. It's a pity I missed this kit. Would you consider adding some Asian agents, like Vertex 、ZFrontier?
