Interest Checks / [IC] KeyKobo Emoji by KEI 绘文字
« Last post by ryanlau998 on Mon, 09 February 2026, 14:06:03 »KeyKobo EMOJI
Hey guys, this is Kei.
Today I would like bring this keycap set to everybody, KeyKobo Emoji.
It was done designed in 2023 but for some reasons,
it's delayed until now.
INSPIRATIONS:
Inspired by the emojis we all use in everyday chats ✨—they’re fun, expressive, and instantly relatable.
I loved that vibe so much that I decided to bring it straight into the keycaps.
The overall color scheme sticks to sleek black and gray, with pops of neon yellow to keep things fresh and eye-catching. For the iconic keys, we picked a lineup of lively expressions and playful symbols, creating a bold and energetic visual contrast.
This set is all about fun and personality. Hope it brings a smile to your desk—and that you enjoy it as much as we do

Interest Checks / Re: [IC] Touchstone - Full Size - Southpaw Option - Launching 3/13!
« Last post by tavapataor on Mon, 09 February 2026, 13:50:11 »If we order the southpaw version and it doesn't make MOQ, will we have an opportunity to be shifted over to the standard version?

Interest Checks / Re: [IC] Touchstone - new colorways + southpaw planned!
« Last post by upas on Mon, 09 February 2026, 13:33:24 »Update time
We spent some time working through the southpaw version of Touchstone and realised it would not be as simple as swapping in alternate top case parts and calling it finished. Because of that, development took a little longer while we reworked the layout properly. A prototype for the southpaw version was ordered shortly before CNY. The factory will be closed for a while, but we plan on showing it off as soon as we are able.
The weights will still be shared across both versions, but the southpaw variant will have its own dedicated top and bottom case parts to ensure everything fits and functions as intended. The southpaw version will also be available in all colourways.
We also spoke with the factory about sharing MOQ between the standard and southpaw variants. Unfortunately they were not willing to combine them, which means both the standard and the southpaw versions will each need to reach 50 units in order to proceed to production. If the southpaw version does not meet this MOQ, it may be cancelled at a later stage.
With these updates in mind, we will be launching the Touchstone group buy on 3/13, with pricing starting from $485.
For the time being, please enjoy a quick render of the southpaw version in Primary (Red).

« Last post by pixelpusher on Mon, 09 February 2026, 11:50:47 »Just added some colorways
I don't see any new colorway options. Is there a link to a different product page? I picked up one a few months ago. Lovely case. Sounds very nice, too.

https://www.jellykey.com/artisan-keycaps/patisserie-tales
The Patisserie Tales is a small, fully handmade artisan keycap series inspired by the soft nostalgia of old neighborhood bakeries, real desserts, real memories, never mass-produced. Each keycap is individually hand-cast in resin, then colored layer by layer, slowly and with intention.
For collectors who value craft and story, we’re opening a short two day mini group-buy. Once it closes, the design will not be reproduced. As a small thank you to collectors, every purchased keycap includes one random resin display plate, selected from four designs. Thoughtfully made, genuinely limited, and quietly special.
