Unfortunately we are not going to have group buy with resin keycaps in a short time. In these months, we are trying to improve the resin keycaps, but until now it is not satisfying.  Now the plan is Pulse Novelty-》KanColle Aluminum Assembled Key Caps->Some new keycaps.

So real question is for sparkle, What is going on with the caps for massdrop last sale on the reactor?  No updates on the site, and and just been "delayed"  So please update us with what is going on and when to expect.
Thanks.

Quite sorry for the delay,  the reason is that when assembling the reactor 1, we found all the bases had serious problems. In order to ship the items as soon as possible, we directly went to the factory by plane and assembled there, also we sent the items to MD several days ago with fastest shipping method.

Sincerely i apologize for the delay of the group buy.  Due to the first batch delay , there is a processing delay on the second batch as well, meanwhile, the factory is trying to accelerate the processing time, i will keep you updated if we can ship it earlier. Currently the estimated shipping time  is 11/15.

For the stem, this time we use different technology this time to make it more transparent and smoother.
Unfortunately we have bad news to you guys for the second  batch,  we spent more time on the anodizing and there are around 20 broken components for the reactor 1 & 2.  Estimated shipping date is 11/20.

@wangbwhz

So Massdrop just cancelled our orders from their groupbuy, even after the opt-in email got sent out due to the delays.

I'm assuming that since you kept producing, that the Reactor Artisans are gonna continue to be in production, is there any chance you could somehow sell them to us anyway? I still wanna get mine, even if I have to wait a little longer.

Hopefully we can still have a chance. This is absurd that the way massdrop is handeling things. I really wish key cap makers and Gb would steer away from them.. Nothign but issues from them lately..

Hi, all, sorry for the delay again, we are going to ship the items by Dec 5th, some components need to re-anodized, we have to spent more time on  anodizing for this batch,  I should make announcement earlier, that is all my fault,   but i have no idea why the order are canceled without option,  I am checking with MD for this issue.
Thanks for all your supporting.

Please update us on how this will be resolved. MD already refunded our money, but I am willing to purchase them directly from you.
