I think their doubleshot old XP style windows and menu key look ****. They were the first new legends they ever cut as far as I understand... and they look like it too. Nowhere near as refined looking as new 8 style.
Just remember in blanks, you must add in even numbers to avoid ending up in the old 400 MOQ tier. Add blanks don't add that much cost, and if it stops whining and boosts interest might as well.

Totally agree, I absolutely hate those old legends. I can dig it on my Classic Beige set for the nostalgia but it looks out of place on more modern sets.
It's a good width!  If it's half-width it's too narrow, and full-width is too wide.

Any word on a GB start date? Or are we still judging initial interest?

I really like the idea of Windows 8 legends on Purple GMK  :p

Still open for discussion, I won't be starting any new GB until I complete my current ones, if anyone wants to pick it up by then, they are welcome to do so. Otherwise, I might start the GB myself.

A capslock and the Win/Fn Keys in Cherry profile are exactly what I'm looking for. Let's do this!

Just a heads up, I am not sure if I will be able to run this GB, because even assuming we get this underway in the next week, we are looking at the end of May/early June as end of production, at which point I do not think I will be in India anymore and back in South Africa, where I am not as well versed with the logistics and would not like to take this on for then.

Having said that, I am willing to work with anyone who is up for handling distribution and offline logistics. If someone wants to run this on their own, they are most welcome to take over. :)

I can always roll this idea into the next mini pack buy if nothing else.

Your experience will be appreciated in running this set as part of your upcoming GBs.

Thank you Ivan, I will continue the discussions in this thread and mockup some sets so the workload on you is reduced later.

I had a couple of other things planned, for which I am awaiting on replies, if those go through, we can  add those to these mini packs.

How so am I a tease? For the most part I do what I say I will if there is enough interest to carry it through... sometimes I am super slow about it I do admit.
