Edit: Here's my post later in the thread with the proposed keys available:
Okay, so because of the forum reset, I'm having trouble finding stock images of the old novelty keys. I did do a search through some other old threads, but I don't want to jack images without permission. If anyone has some pictures of the following, it'd be great:
Lotus
Guy escaping with keyboard
Keyboard
If anyone wants those keys.
Here's some of the ones I bought last time around. Don't think we'll do any flag keys this time, they usually get really low counts.
(http://i.imgur.com/DBF6T.jpg)
Anyways, here's my updated list of keys I want to run:
Biohazard: (both modifier and Esc keys)
- Red on White (matching Red Alert)
- Blue on Black (Maybe?) It would go with my upcoming doubleshot group buy
- White on Red (matching the abundant red mod sets)
(http://i.imgur.com/kKuJn.jpg)
Jolly Roger: Modifier only
-white on black
-black on white
-Red on White
Triforce: Esc and Mod
- Gold on Green ofc
- There is no good purple available from SP, so the gold on purple suggestion is out, but I'm open to others
Awesome Face:
White on Red
Black on Red (this for sure, its new)
Black on Yellow? (I don't particularly want to do the same colors, so throw em up, I'm open to whatever)
LOD:
- Black on Red
- Red on Black
- Willing to do colors that match keysets done by GH, CCnG etc, as well as anything else that looks sick.
Nuke I'll pass on because we just had the hazard group buy.
Escaping Keyboard Guy:
- White on Red
- Black on Red
PANIC:

ANY Key:
Colors undecided
(http://www10.pic-upload.de/31.10.12/ushrbpd6tshc.jpg)
Socially Awkward Penguin: (Have .svg)
-Black on White
(http://i.imgur.com/L2aP6.png)
Bowser Flag: (Need .Svg, might make my own if I have to)
- Black on white lets us do the flag
- White on black gives us just a bowser key
Fox key (You'll know what its from)
- White on Black or Grey on Black
- Orange on Black
(http://i.imgur.com/2g7bz.png)
If you guys want to do a particular GH key I'll lump that in with this and donate the proceeds to GH as usual. Apparently the $350 I sent em wasn't near enough! Give me a color combo!
Anything I missed? Thats a lot of keys! Depending on how many we end up with, I'm planning on starting the group buy at the 50/100 price tier, as I'll just contribute and buy 100 of each to lower prices and have some/lots of extras to sell. That said, if a key gets very little interest even at a great price break, I'll drop it and save myself the effort.

Always in for more novelty caps.

-
I'm a sucker for these, you know I'd be in.
-
If somehow you've convinced SP to do starcraft logos again I would be all over some SC2 double shots.
-
In for some more sc2 caps, but I know that's not going to happen.

Uhmmm MLP caps?

In!

I'll be selling some dyesub SC2 keys in the Imsto GB I think
Uhmmm MLP caps?
I'll get the Imsto GB up soon I promise. 2 midterms on wednesday, so probably asap after that. iMav finally accepted my $350 donation so I'll get my forum up whenever I have a few hours to spare.
To be clear though, we can do some dyesub keys in this group buy, but it should be mostly doubleshots. At the moment I'm thinking:
Red on white Biohazard from my avatar
Awesome Face
LOD
Jolly Roger (On actual black this time so it matches)
Escaping Keyboard Guy
Triforce
... and I have to get to class but a bunch more I can't remember off of the top of my head. I kinda want to do a dyesubbed Skyrim key but that might have to be in the imsto gb too.
-
Interested
-
Suggestions:
White on Blue LOD
White on Green AwesomeFace
Black on Orange Cherry font Esc key
-
Could you run some OS keys? (e.g. Tux)
-
I'd like to do some OS keys for sure but the question is which colors, there are so many different keysets available now that its hard to say which you'd want it for. You could do the typical white on black or black on white but it'd be pretty dull. Still, since most boards come with stock windows keys and are black or white, there might be some interest from those that don't have the funds to buy all the expensive doubleshot keysets.
@ Placebo guy: That sounds good, but why the Orange Cherry Esc?
-
I'd like the white on blue LOD.
-
Red on white Biohazard from my avatar
Awwww yeaaaahhhh :D
-
I'd be up for some. Pocketbook should be good by then!
-
I'd love some true black Jolly Rogers for sure, especially if they are the ctrl alt (modifier?) keys
-
If somehow you've convinced SP to do starcraft logos again I would be all over some SC2 double shots.
Red on white Biohazard from my avatar
Awwww yeaaaahhhh :D
But the avatar looks sky blue, and I think would be cooler
-
We could do the awesome faces in all sorts of wacky combinations. Blue on white, orange on charcoal (for the upcoming set), green on white like ccng etc.. Replace the function row with rainbow coloured awesome faces!
-
Uhmmm MLP caps?
I've been looking for some. Any ideas where we could get some?

Just gotta love that Citrussy Goodness. Good Summer quencher. :p

Lol that's just the white balance. I don't think it'd mesh very well with most boards to put it on blue, I want to run it on WFK so its compatible with Red Alert 2.0. We could do other colors for it too but I don't want to encroach on the hazard logos group buy that is going on because that's awesome.
@ Elrick: Lol that took me a second!
-
.
-
Dolch and wyse center stemmed stepped capslock
-
I just want the new colors for the awesome face, LOD... Alot of the old color ones had been sold last time, I don't think it's a good idea to re-do them. People who want something just have a look at the classified or post a thread, I'm sure many one have extras.
-
For the Tri-Force, instead of gold on green (which I think I saw), I think Green on Royal Purple would be nice. Or some combination with Royal Purple. Heck, I'll take the gold on green too. All of the colors. Bring on the caps.
All kinds of tri-forces!
-
ALL THE AWESOME FACES AND LOD'S!
-
Pick me! Pick me! Do Bowser flag mods!:
http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=25674.msg678665#msg678665
-
Yes please do some new colours. Whatever colours you end up going with, I'll grab some :)
-
Bowser flag is in for sure! I'll probably do a few more from that thread too, thanks for reminding me.
-
Huzzah! Ragnorock's the man.
-
It would be nice if some of the novelty keys are made in colours that somehow match the recently made sets.
Would be nice to be able to customise a whole set without completely killing the colour scheme.
-
Huzzah! Ragnorock's the man.
True, never ever had any trouble receiving and getting key-caps from this guy. Any Group Buy you are running, I'm in no matter what's on offer.

Did SP have a hard time producing those caps?

In!
-

No, they feared a lawsuit.
Yeah I always do "flag" keys as mods before others.
-
I'd be interested
-
Interested.
Escaping keyboard guy is that the same as that leopold cap?
-
I would be interested in Luffy's straw hat (one piece) on black cap and possibilty SC2 caps.
-
I just thought about something, why not make some caps for erase and some longer caps, like space. That wouldn't be impossible?

We've done that. It gets significantly more expensive though. Unless you've got something specific in mind?
-
I'm in!
-
Would like some red on black and black on red key caps to complement the Ragnarok set.
[attach=1]
-
I mentioned this before somewhere on the infamous Round4 thread but I'm interested in a "SHOUT" cap in replacement of the CapsLock key. I know there were interest for this from other users so I'm sure we can drum up interest for this again.

I would buy that :))
-
Is this strictly for keys that we know have existing molds? Or are we exploring new ideas too?
I'm in, but not sure for what :p
-
Old keys and new ideas too. Throw em at me.
Again the main problem is going to be deciding colors. I'll probably set up some polls once we get some options.
For now, feel free to toss up ideas on ones you both want and think will do well in a group buy/rebuy. I'm willing to do new keys, but existing keys will be cheaper because I don't have to mark them up nearly as much since there's no legend fees.
-
I would be down GF might be down too, pending designs, colors and pricing.
-
Dunno if this is the right place but;
Ragnarok red on black center-stem stepped caps lock would be sexy... please show interest if you think so too!
-
Count me in! Can never have too many caps ;)
-
I think a red on sky blue biohazard cap would be awesome! Throw it on a Frankenstein board! Or on an all black board. Black goes with everything! It just looks so good in your avatar. Also that color might go well with the crystal meth caps from the Br/Ba buy and fits the "chemical" theme. Maybe I'm just crazy!
-
I would be interested.
-
I would be interested specifically in Awesome Face and Look of Dissaproval keys in different colors. IMO the black on red LOD could definately be improved, and maybe a yellow on black awesome face.
And of course any other randomly done keys you guys can come up with :D

Besides all the nice ideas in this threat, did I just hear Awesome Face in different colors? I'd be down for that!!!! (Probably I would be also in for most of the other ideas mentioned here!)
Btw, has there been a white on red Lotus-cap yet, e.g. to go with Red Alert??
-
I'd be interested in a Jolly Roger as well. But spice it up with a black key on black engraving :cool:
Super subtle!
Or a Half-Life lambda!
-

I have nothing in mind, im no designer ;]

Make it stepped and id buy a few !
-
Definitely still excited for the Bowser flag and Jolly Roger mods! Hope this can get started up soon!
-
is black with grey legend doubleshot doable? would look sick imo.
-
Came up with a quick idea after reading the RGBYO IC where they're thinking of rotating colors:
Blank SP DCS profile 1.25x modifiers in RA, BDH, and YBP. Throw in shift keys of different lengths in VCM and then people can mix and match blank "custom" RGBY sets (i.e. the different colors can go to any mod key) to go along with cherry profile otaku keysets.
Didn't think it would be too appropriate to suggest this in danielucf/hashbaz's upcoming RGBYO GB, where they're going to be doubleshots for sure. Not sure if it's a reasonable idea at all actually, but I just wanted to chime in with this thought.
-
Rag, do you stay away from copyrighted images in particular for these?
-
Uhmmm MLP caps?
thisss
all the ponies

Always interested in some novelty packs!
-
hi newb here.
have no idea abt the old designs. mind putting up some pix?
-
I would be up for some novelty cap

Suggestions:
Black on Orange Cherry font Esc key
I'd like this but why stop, do the entire function row in the same. Really want someone to do a vintage cherry row
(http://i.imgur.com/o4BjD.jpg)
-
Interested in some of these depending on what happens. Def interested in the bowser flag, as well as jolly Rodger.

omg fox key :-*
-
Nice selection! Needs Yugioh dyesubs though, I've restored my nostalgia in that game! :p
-
Personally, I'd go totally crazy over white/black on orange awesomefaces!
But even more I love your suggestion to take a color combination to fit RA for Jolly Rogers and Biohazards. I guess they will make a nice addition to this (already very sexy) keyset!
-
Yeah, I was also thinking of making a version of the JR key to match the Ragnarok set, since that was the original "biohazard end of the world keyset" but I started getting a little crazy with the offered color combos, most of them will end up with 2 colors going forward, unless there is unusually high demand for all 3.
Thanks for letting me use your images for the panic and any key though, OP updated.
@ Allesandro, trying to stay away from Dyesubs for this group buy, otherwise I would have included a bunch of the meme keys too. Also no offense, but Yugioh? MTG all the way.
-
Are colors set for the most part? I'd love to have the blue versions of some of these keys but I might be a minority

Fair enough, I remember when I was in middle school playing lots of MTG and YuGiOh came out. Suddenly hordes of kids everywhere and we had to accommodate them, which probably kicked off my elitist tendencies.
-
Also no offense, but Yugioh? MTG all the way.
Want to tell it to my 8 old son?
Try it :)

If he watches 5DS I'm going to have a tendancy not to like you. Get him watching classic Yugioh!
Back on topic! I'd seriously be in for as many new awesomefaces as possible!
-
I was thinking that some blue on white and/or white on blue would look pretty nice with the biohazard and Jolly Roger keys
-
I know your old avatar picture was red on white Ragnorock, but it looked red on light blue. I still really think a red on light blue bio-hazard would be amazing. Also any of this you want to make that would match the toxic set would be pretty badass too.
-
ooo you're doing them in black now? hmmm....
Well here ya go; (or do you need an svg thingy?)
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v254/HeartagramBMXR/IMG_3919.jpg)
-
Any of these besides the Jolly Roger for the bottom row?
-
The triforce mods, or anyones I list mod next to would be. If you have suggestions for ones you'd want share em!
-
I'm pretty much over novelty keys, but I'd be in for a Socially Awkward Penguin. Love it.
Regarding including a GH key: donations/fundraisers are always appreciated, but make sure the admins give the OK beforehand. Ming et al. are keeping a much closer eye on the production of "official" GH-branded stuff than they used to.
-
I'm interested.
Some keys in classic cherry style would be cool (black on one of that cherry-greys)

We can do paw key. Forgot about that. Need the .svg though.

i want the japan mod key though :(
is it in the GB?
-
I could put it in, but drop it if we don't get very many orders. There weren't many last time. We've already got a bunch of keys here, so I dunno. I'd sell you mine, but I liek dem. Actually rocking them right now.

haha need to grab them fast.
I am just worried about the shipping method though. Never use it before. :rolleyes:
Thanks for the info.
-
Meh, the shipping price is a bit higher than what people are usually charging for shipping these days, but that's a great price for the keys themselves and they're a business too. Great deal for exactly what you want and you don't have to wait.
Since they're selling them I won't be including the Japan mods in this group buy both because I don't need to and out of respect for their sales.
-
I don't really know about the shipping fees though. This is my first time buying stuffs from US. ;D
I'll take part in next gb if there is anything that I am interest. Thanks for the help!
-
Ah, didn't realize you weren't located in the US. $8 bucks is quite a bit if its just a bubble mailer. Even when I was marking it up I wasn't charging that much. If you contact them I'm pretty sure they'll work something out, they're good guys.

Sure. I don't really mind about the shipping fees though. (been buying gundam stuffs from Jap through EMS and cost me a lot :'( :'( )
just worried about the shipping method as i haven't tried it before.
-
Oh, well the bubble mailer is pretty standard and since someone can step on a key without damaging it there are usually 0 issues. I ship most of my stuff that isn't full keysets by them, in fact I imagine just about every order in this proposed group buy will be getting a bubble mailer.
-
ah. ok. then i'll have no problem at all. gonna buy when i get home. ;D Thanks for the help!
-
$8 bucks is quite a bit if its just a bubble mailer.
This is what confuses me all the time, I have been charged anywhere from $3.78 to $10 for postage in a bubble mailer. Do prices change depending on where you are in America or do some just like adding extra cost on for some reason? I was surprised to see it go as high as $10 :\
-
I can give you some answers based on my experience as a vendor on here... Initially when I started offering the bubble mailers I didn't know what I was getting into with USPS. Because of that, I was charging $4-5 ($5 for international, or it was something like that) just to mail them out first class. Turns out, that even though the cost does vary whether it goes to a near region of the country, or the other end, it does vary, but not all that much. Internationally, it varies a bit more, and of course all of this depends on the weight, but even with a bubble mailer with a bunch of keys in it it wouldn't end up being all that much. Average price for domestic packages for me these days is right around $2, maybe a bit more. That comes with delivery confirmation and such. Internationally there is no delivery confirmation and it averages around $3 but can go as high as $4. Thats why after getting a large enough sample size to be confident in the prices I could charge without losing money but not marking it up, I lowered my prices. I've actually lowered them multiple times now, to the $3 US and $3.50 international for bubble mailers. That covers the outliers, cost of the bubble mailers, and frequent trips to the post office, but doesn't make me any profit. Thus, and I went over this a while ago in my group buys, the money I make from running group buys or selling keys comes from the product itself, like it should. That is usually taken care of by rounding price tiers to the next dollar etc. What they are doing, is marking up the shipping to make extra money on a per order basis, rather than a per item basis. It works, but it can be a bit excessive at times. I received this feedback, and adjusted because of it!
With this particular group buy, since its a bunch of novelty keys, its not going to be dollars since once we hit high quantities, the per key price is going to be really cheap, like $0.75 or something. I'll round to every dime or something, to keep the markup/margin small and reasonable. That way my time gets covered, and everyone still gets cheap novelty keys for a fraction of the cost of buying a single from a store. Those Japan keys for example... $4 is a great price for them as leftovers, reasonable to get how many you need, but you aren't exactly going to buy 100 of them. Its profitable, but not ridiculously so for the seller, because the inventory doesn't move that fast. Also if they're just buying them and selling them, they've got to order a significant amount to get a good price for them, requiring them to front a decent lump of cash. Anyways, compare that to the prices of some novelty keys, the TL.net key for example, which were going for $15-$20 before Team Liquid started selling them in their store, and it sounds fair. Group buys are a great deal when they come around though, because all of the sudden 500-1000 keys of a particular kind get dumped into the pool, and prices are kept low for them.
Also, if Melissa thinks the Fox key won't look good as a doubleshot, we may have to run it as a dyesub or put it in the imsto group buy. Just a little update there. Finals this week and then I'm done, but my first one isn't till Wednesday and its optional at that (I can bump my grade from a B+ to an A- in the class if I do well on it) so I may have some time tomorrow to get a bunch of GH stuff up and running.
Cheers,
Dave

100% behind a fox hound key, be amazing if it was creme/black

Hey Rag,
You wanna do a Mr Yuk key? If sp is willing, i'd be in for a few. Make it match the "toxic set" color codes GB for better sales as well? an add-on of sorts. Hell maybe your Bio key would look good in those colors... people seem to love their greens around here.
& a couple people showed interest right away when I mentioned it; http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=38241.msg745018#msg745018

I don't think he could match the toxic set, as that's using a custom color that's being created purely for that GB and until it's run through it won't be available.

Was thinking a laughing man cap would be cool. Just not sure if it would be copyright so a no go, either way. Made a mock up of it, and thought it would be a cool new 'awesome face'.

A Mr. Yuck key would be cool, the mouth might not look near as defined as it does in the image, but it could work. I wouldn't be doing it in the same colors as the toxic group buy, both for the reasons mentioned above and me wanting it to look like the actual key logo. Copyright, I'd probably get a meh from Melissa on that one. The laughing man cap is also awfully detailed for a doubleshot, would work good as a dyesub though. That's my input, thoughts?

Yea I removed the writing in hopes of a doubleshot, although still has quite the detail. If it can't be doubleshot, maybe lump it into the dyesub buy if people want it?

Is Mr Yuk even (strictly) copyrighted anyway? Beings it's an old sticker campaign to put stickers on things kids shouldnt be playing with; ie chemicals under the sink.
I would be in for a few Mr Yuk's regardless of color. (although I personally prefer nn black base color) To go with my Ragnarock red on black of course.
-
Mr Yuck would go on NN for sure. I have plans to do both a green on black and blue on black set for my next group buy. Since the toxic set is in the works, it'll probably be blue first to avoid having competing gbs running simultaneously.
Expect biohazard and Mr. Yuck keys for the green one when I do, and at least biohazard with the blue one. That's basically going to be my personal replacement for a windows key forever, so I'll be coming up with custom legends for those modifier row to go with or in place of it fitting the theme of the set. I may or may not offer a standard set of mods depending on how the custom legends are received.

WTB more red on black type keys to match my rag set!@
-
Didn't want to go through all 4 pages but I'd be in for an ANY and a PANIC key if that's still likely..
-
Yeah, what color though? I want to do something a bit different than the same thing over again and again. Also for the sake of image detail and copyright safety I'm going to go ahead and put the fox key in the imsto group buy. You can order it as soon as tomorrow.

Green on black?

Laughing man should be doable. Not much more complex than "&"
I have a decent image file for it with no background if you want it as I had wasd make me a lasered one and it came out well.

Excited for this batch of Novelty Keycaps.
Hoping for some variety of Lotus Keys and looking forward to the Awesome Faces and Bio-hazard Keys as well!
-
I'd be in for a red on black ANY and PANIC (match ragnarok red sets)
-
K, I can dig that, anyone have other ideas?
-
I'm in. Ideas here are good, definitely interested in some triforce since I missed it last time. LoD still remains my favorite novelty so a different colored run of those would be fun too.
-
Any update on this one?
Or are just too many guys participating in too many group buys atm? :p

I'm waiting for the jimmies cap! My jimmies need an unrustling!
