Post by: CPTBadAss on Thu, 25 April 2013, 06:32:38: I asked the guys at MechanicalKeyboards.com when I was there. They said sometime early in the summer (June/July) but I didn't get any other details. I assume it would be like YotD with a few tweaks but who knows.

Post by: MJ45 on Fri, 26 April 2013, 23:13:33: Since I have 2 YotD's (red&blk mx) I'll have to get at least one of the year of the Snake editions, hope they will have a wider switch choice on these.

Post by: dante on Sat, 27 April 2013, 09:15:42: If I had to guess an 87 w/ improved stabilizers and some sort of PBT/Doubleshot/Dyesub backlit keycaps.

And potentially some extremely limited run of Ergo-Clear'ish switch.

GET ER DONE!
