Title: [IC] JTK Force
Post by: venderzhao on Wed, 18 July 2018, 02:32:44: JTK Force is inspired by the famous Starwars franchise.

The idea is to use red and blue and black to reflect the dark and light side of the force and the vader.

The original plan is to have a STARWARS double shot spacebar, but that was put down because we cannot use the logo.

I have some novelties ready, but might need some adjustment. Please tell me what you think!

I’ll probably be in since JTK prices are great, + legends look good now.

I’ll be waiting for the renders

I’m guessing the picture he put is just to put all the unique keys he’s having.

Since last I checked, JTK has a standard on what they put in a kit.

Yes, there will be more keys for compatibility. The picture is to show a general look.

Post by: otanishock on Wed, 18 July 2018, 08:33:28: I'm just afraid that this set will not see its light due to the current amount of GMK sets shoving down our throat. Terminal R2, TA 90, Metaverse, Coniferous R2, Monochrome, Space Cadet, Carbon R2, Greek Olivetti all are either in GB phase or very likely to see a drop this year, not to mention a myriad others currently in IC phase. I just feel that the market is really saturated right now with Cherry profile keysets and thus this set wouldn't be able to hit its MOQ should it ever get to the GB phase which was evident just from looking at the recent cancellation of GMK Oasis.

Jtk has a much lower price tag and moq so I'm not sure if it would fail.

Post by: donutcat on Wed, 18 July 2018, 18:16:04: All those novelties gonna be $$$ with JTK since it's like $400 per new mold iirc.

Almost certainly not a chance with JTK's pricing for custom molds.
