Would be more interested if it were dye-sub DCS.
That way I could use them with more of my sets.

For some reason Halloween kits always end up being thought of very late, even if these do materialise into GB, they won't be reaching end users before new year.
end of November (I agree it's late... but not so late :) )

guys, halloween is an excuse to make some fancy caps :) I don't think you'd use them just 1 day!
I think you should also use Christmas as an excuse to make some fancy caps, then. I love that holiday.

bad news is that DSA tooling is booked until next year. So we would have to wait a couple of months for a DSA kit. DCS instead would be ready before xmas.
good news is that pricing is lower than I thought, have to check shipping and taxes and I'll post the final figure.

It doesn't surprise me that DSA is all booked up. It seems like at least once a week I see someone talking about starting a DSA set on PMK.com.

any chance you can run SA and DCS? And I would also definitely be in for a whole set.
unfortunately we can't dyesub SA yet, and doubleshot would be too expensive (for all 12 keys)
regarding pricing, I'm aiming at $13.13 per kit :)

I also wouldn't say no to a Full 104 or TKL set with a gothic-y, Diabloesque font. Maybe with Cauldrons for the Window key mods and broom or witch's hat for the menu key mod. Perhaps adding in some glow in the dark ghosties, spiderwebs, gravestones and/or crypts.

I should run it on my own if we want to have it now.Sir, I like all your designs (Granite, Midnight, etc), also this one. As far as I know, every GB takes a long time to the final product. Why not start it as soon as possible?
And personally, I'd prefer a small set of novelties instead of a full set.

depends on the results, but I would be interested, we don't really celebrate halloween over here, but christmas is something else. I would guess red as the base color(maybe with green and/or white) some keys with a tree, reindeer and santa on it. Maybe a "ho ho ho' key as enter, backspace, caps lock (any of the larger keys).

http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=50968.msg1120289#msg1120289
Didn't take off. Green and red just don't look good on a keyboard in my opinion.
Maybe a winter theme with a couple of Xmas novelty keys works better?
I am thinking of white alphas and dark green mods (like a fir tree covered in snow) plus xmas novelties like boxes of presents or a sleigh or snowman or something.

In my opinion, it's not a good time to spend tons of dollars on a full set at this time, since black friday and xmas and new year are all coming. But as a poor student, I still would like to spend 30~40 dollars on a small set of novelties. That's much cheaper! ;)oh we are talking about a full set?

Always liked Orange and Black just use some nice iconography and you'll have a winner. Don't know whether it would be good in PBT due to their lack of brightness for Orange but do stick with the traditional ABS material to achieve your original design objectives.
Not too keen on an official Christmas set because most Europeans and South Americans follow Religious doctrines during that time of the year whilst us morons here worship a fat dude in a red suit only and fantasize what gifts we're all getting during that time frame.
Best to avoid a key-set trying to depict a REAL (or fantasy) Xmas because it could get nasty and offensive with certain people out there. For the Christians it's the BIGGEST time of the year and best leave that time alone free from any schlock depiction in key-sets. Besides we've got all of 2015 to buy more key-sets of just about anything made by SP, so time to give it a rest and enjoy the holidays coming in December.
Also gives people time to save up for the coming year in new key-set buys :thumb: .

You haven't designed a full on Orange and Black (halloween) key-set layout, hence get started already.
Everyone knows your work so go forth with your usual style and care and I bet once you post it here on GH and/or even on MD, it'll go crazy popular.
Have faith in your work because we all know what you have done in the past and they were all perfect key-sets in their own right so we all look forward to another matt3o master piece.
Have already boxes of your your key-sets with your name and date applied to each, because I want more (let's get creepy now) of Matt3o in my home 8) .

Ohhhh man this set is gorgeous. I'm in for 2 atleast. One for me and one for my brother
not sure there's enough interest to run a GB on these...
You haven't designed a full on Orange and Black (halloween) key-set layout, hence get started already.
Everyone knows your work so go forth with your usual style and care and I bet once you post it here on GH and/or even on MD, it'll go crazy popular.
Have faith in your work because we all know what you have done in the past and they were all perfect key-sets in their own right so we all look forward to another matt3o master piece.
Have already boxes of your your key-sets with your name and date applied to each, because I want more (let's get creepy now) of Matt3o in my home 8) .
Yes! I would totally love a full on Halloween set like this, Orange and Purple!

I'll look for a manufacturer, but I'm afraid we are a little late for this year's halloween
Just call it a nightmare before christmas set.
