It would be great if you offered the "`~" and "\|" keys in both colors, so people could chose between the classic and the symmetrical look  :thumb:

This is the first time to get Tai Hao Miami in ISO as far as I know, the same for blanks!

This should start on Monday!

Sometimes I wonder who chooses these colors... Inverted skidata.... Really? That is a thing that only a color blind person can stand....

Would really like Tai Hao in ISO, but why are all three options in such... loud... colours? Kind of renders them completely unusable in a professional setting, even if someone was partial to bleeding eyeballs in the first place.

Thanks for sharing my view. I think that if you want to be successful in this market, you need to offer some proven designs first, and then try something new.

But Tai Hao are proven designs, they drop frequently on Massdrop. The more supports buys like these are, the more likely manufacturers are to bring out ISO sets since they'll see that there's a market here.

This set is a proven classic.
