In Simple, It is KBT.

That's looking pretty good. I'm interested in what black/dark grey on white will look like.

RiGS · « **Reply #4 on:** Tue, 20 December 2011, 09:51:43 »

Did you mean KBC?
I hope it is not gonna cost a hundred bucks. That is just insane rip-off.

Do want.

how soon is "soon"?

RiGS · « **Reply #7 on:** Tue, 20 December 2011, 18:54:10 »

Those are regular thin OEM profile keys.

OK I'm an idiot (you heard it here first) - why would these be desirable?

It's 'cause PBT > ABS. Thanks \KL!
and dyesub's are awesome.

Basically win-win all 'round. They look a little like the topre keycaps? Can they do that with dyesub, not laser?

Either way, I'm interested in Dyesub PBT.

Sooooon....so ambiguous.

Mysteric · « **Reply #10 on:** Wed, 21 December 2011, 13:17:26 »

These going to be available in ISO layout? I feel as though that is a question that does not need answering but I wish I could get some PBT caps for my UK Filco.

Saviant · « **Reply #11 on:** Thu, 22 December 2011, 09:33:18 »

I am down for a set or 2 of these when they released. Is there any information of when they may he available?

Your skills in deduction seem to be quite lacking for a self-proclaimed "expert".

Tax deduction skills beat any formal other.

Haha, couldn't agree more.

These look awesome!

RiGS · « **Reply #16 on:** Tue, 27 December 2011, 13:25:47 »

0.8mm is thin, even the new SP PBT keys look thicker than KBC I. Topre keys are what I would call medium thickness keys.

'Liked' them on Facebook, just waiting until they can be purchased.

I'm definitely interested in these. Hope it's coming really soon. =P

Would love to see some with light lettering.

Same here, as that's the only downfall of Dyesub PBT: since you're adding dye to the pores, you "usually" can't take a darker colour keycap, and put a lighter legend on it. If there's some way around this, then all my problems are solved!

Well "soon" obviously means more than 30 days.

lightsout714 · « **Reply #23 on:** Sat, 21 January 2012, 18:48:28 »

Oh yahoo that's right. Duh. Bummer.

gridlock · « **Reply #24 on:** Thu, 23 February 2012, 20:45:41 »

These look very nice but I with the caps were lighter to give better contrast like the HHKB.

gridlock · « **Reply #25 on:** Sat, 03 March 2012, 16:53:30 »

So I guess these are not going to happen. Quite a shame really, I wanted a nice set of dye-subs.

h2oxide · « **Reply #26 on:** Sat, 03 March 2012, 19:35:30 »

What gave you that idea?

It'll happen, just not "soon" like the thread says
