GMK RGBYK Add-on Kit

LAUNCHING NEXT FRIDAY

Hello, this add-on kit is something me and Hineybush (hineybush#0069) would like to run. It was first ran by Geekhack users Radio_killah and GhostJuggernautClassic over on Drop(formerly known as Massdrop).

Here's the mock-up:

Vendors:
NA: Novelkeys
EU: Oblotzky
Rest of the world: TBD

Pricing: TBD

GB Date: Tentatively January 2020.

MOQ: 150

Do tell me what you guys think of it. Thanks https://forms.gle/iMc9xHYe2sAuaMoW7

--------------------------------------------------

Update 1.0

Blanks removed as per feedback received.
Added R5 1.25 mods as per feedback received.
Added Winkeys as their replacement.
Thank you Lightning/Diego for helping me out.
This add-on kit shall be called GMK Mauritius Add-on kit due to my island flag's colors and it being matching colors to the classic Desko RGB mods.

Update 2.0

Leds removed since more people liked the standalone rgbyk.
Added Super as winkeys since those won the poll.
Changing name back to GMK RGBYK. Mauritius still in our hearts

Update 2.1

Added 1.25u Menu Key.

Update 2.2

Hiney is taking some time off. Swapping to Novelkeys as US Vendor.

Jae-3soteric · « **Reply #11 on:** Fri, 22 November 2019, 03:35:06 »

Def in for this - remove the blanks (and the cherry keys) for me though

funderburker · « **Reply #12 on:** Fri, 22 November 2019, 03:36:40 »

I'm looking forward for this.

Pack would be fine without blanks I feel like.

Yesssss. Do not need the blanks or Escs but would like the Cherry keys.

Atlantic · « **Reply #17 on:** Fri, 22 November 2019, 05:19:17 »

r5 mod colored 1u keys would be nice, the legend could be a winkey, a cherry key or a code key imo

+1.

Also I don't need the R1 blanks or Esc keys.

RETURNISO · « **Reply #21 on:** Fri, 22 November 2019, 06:53:43 »

Yes please!

+1 Esc, Blanks, Cherry led's

LightningXI · « **Reply #22 on:** Fri, 22 November 2019, 07:19:07 »

Can I recommend the inclusion of winkeys? Black on yellow. (Not Code, not Super, but Winkeys)

I actually had mocked this up by myself previously thinking of doing a rerun of such a kit sometime.

This is great!

tentboy · « **Reply #23 on:** Fri, 22 November 2019, 07:20:54 »

sick. Im in.

zekkin · « **Reply #24 on:** Fri, 22 November 2019, 07:27:42 »

A diamond (like how Lightning mocked up) on what would have been the R1 1u blanks would be cool. Either way, I'm in.

LightningXI · « **Reply #25 on:** Fri, 22 November 2019, 07:32:40 »

OH, also don't forget that there are R5 molds for 1.25u mods so you should include those as well for Ctrl, Winkey, Fn (this would be the Menu key in 6.25u bottom row and could be done in black on orange), and Alt.

Zurg Eon · « **Reply #26 on:** Fri, 22 November 2019, 08:05:51 »

I'm in. R5 1.25u mods would have been nice.

cekagekh · « **Reply #27 on:** Fri, 22 November 2019, 09:04:00 »

Nice! But I don't think I'll need the R1 blanks.

wholypantalones · « **Reply #28 on:** Fri, 22 November 2019, 09:41:51 »

I'm in. I don't necessarily need or want the winkeys (especially diamonds), blanks, cherry keys or escapes but R5 keys should definitely be added.

Steezus · « **Reply #29 on:** Fri, 22 November 2019, 10:12:19 »

Definitely getting one of these kits, been wanting a blue cherry logo for quite some time.

appaboy · « **Reply #30 on:** Fri, 22 November 2019, 10:13:56 »

Love that you're including both icon only and icon + text

tex_live_utility · « **Reply #31 on:** Fri, 22 November 2019, 11:15:39 »

I don't mind being forced to use Alt Gr. If you wanted to remove the extra 2 plain Alts to reduce the price I'd be happy with that change.

I'd rather pay extra for the additional alts than be forced to use alt gr. Oco sets all come that way and it's kinda irritating tbh.

Yeah, I agree. IMO just have the most compatibility possible as these modifier kits are hard to come by, and they rarely get run nowadays with the infinite number of keyset group-buys nowadays (full base kits and all that jazz).

Poesjuh · « **Reply #34 on:** Fri, 22 November 2019, 13:28:29 »

angry alt is best alt though.

funderburker · « **Reply #35 on:** Fri, 22 November 2019, 13:53:35 »

Hey. AltGr is the only real right Alt there is.

dallman5 · « **Reply #36 on:** Fri, 22 November 2019, 14:25:36 »

Super hyped for this. In for 2 probably.

Not if I have it my way.

Rob27shred · « **Reply #38 on:** Fri, 22 November 2019, 19:16:38 »

I'm down for a kit!

oxchamballs · « **Reply #39 on:** Fri, 22 November 2019, 19:19:49 »

Not feeling the new name, why not just keep it as RGBK (which is so kuch more recognizable)?

ullr · « **Reply #40 on:** Fri, 22 November 2019, 19:25:59 »

A HHKB control in red would be a nice addition I think

adxlk · « **Reply #41 on:** Fri, 22 November 2019, 19:54:24 »

18 hours post submission update:

The Update 1.0 seems to please mostly everyone so far.
Here are the results from the feedback form.

Everything seems to be inline besides cherry leds.
Vote up if you want it to stay in the kit or vice versa

Need to represent the dodo-land in this hobby xd
Don't worry, I will revert back if more people don't prefer it.

Thank you for your input, should there be more people who are an advocate of this, I will consider making that addition.

You can get a CMYK kit for that.

Thanks man, appreciate it

Quriosity · « **Reply #49 on:** Sat, 23 November 2019, 13:06:12 »

Please keep the Cherry LED keys in the kit - it's my favorite part of the kit and I don't mind paying extra to have them in the kit
