[GB] KAT Atlantis

[sevenseacat]

According to ZFrontier, they started domestic shipping a few weeks ago. Thought we'd at least see some pictures by now...

People have been posting a few pics in Rensuya's discord, let me post them on here.

FYI, zFrontier issued an update June 2 stating it might be 1-2 months before all other vendors receive their KAT Atlantis orders.  Same for KAT Lala and KAT Iron.

So potentially another two to six weeks before atlantis is received by vendors (in the states). Then it takes about a month for vendors to package and ship? If that is correct, then we are looking at six to ten weeks to have them in hand, that's roughly August 1st through September 1st. Does this track?

If you believe zfrontier speaking for the often mute Keyreative, sure. Have faith in CK, not in the others, but I’ll take them being made over the alternative.

Just a heads up, since I'm not sure whether the problem is just for me or not.
I received my Atlantis 2 weeks ago and I though my wait is finished but turned out my Korean Alphas kit missing 1 keycap. The ㅍ key.

Finally!

[Buster69]

Better than expected!! My Sat75 R2 is ready to come out of the box lol

I've just received tracking number from mykeyboard.eu. Can't wait, it's been two long years

Ultimately I ended up cancelling my atlantis order last minute.  Made the decision based on how disappointing KAT Cyberspace was- think I'm just done with the KAT profile at this point, I always end up back on GMK or SA after a week of KAT, and storage for KAT sets is so annoying with all the extra profile keys.  For everyone that stuck it out, I hope the double shot turns out great.  The colors in the photos so far look pretty good.  Maybe I'll regret cancelling.  But probably not.  At least I have the deskmat which tbh is one of my favs.

[Adelscott]

Received this yesterday, after 866 days of waiting! I'm glad I didn't cancel my order because the keycaps are pretty cool. I own other KAT (and KAM) keysets, this one is the first with no alignment or color bleeding issues, thanks to double shot.

[Joaquox]

Corners on both teal numpad enters have blue protruding through. Another disappointment from Keyreative!

I'm finally getting my KAT Cyberspace this week.
Delays plus mykeyboard.eu not having UK VAT caused all this.

Someone on Discord had this same thing, and they contacted support that said to wipe it off with some alcohol and it worked. No need to yell at Keyreative so quickly.

Quickly? I waited over two years for this, I'll yell however I please at this point, thank you very much.

Did the blue bits wipe off with some alcohol?

Any one else have issues with inconsistencies? I haven't opened my set and am debating on keeping or selling them.

I know the GB is closed (and I joined it). If the order hasn't yet been made final to the printers, here are some recommendations for your Ergo kit:
https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=105714.0

Given that you probably won't want to alter the legends or total key count at this stage, the most important takeaway is that all the 1u keys in the thumb clusters should be R2, not R1.  Likewise, all vertical 1.5u keys should be R2.

Otherwise, those lower keys are just going to be a series of sharp edges for an Ergodox user's thumbs.

So apparently these changes were made. All the thumbs cluster 1u keys are R2 instead of R1 like in the kitting information. Kind of annoying actually, because now I can't use the thumb keys on the bottom row of my Boardwalk like I wanted to. I think making thumb keys R2 is definitely the right call, I just use Ergodoxian boards that don't have all of the 1u keys in the thumb cluster. I wish there were a few more of the thumb key symbols on available for R1. Now I'm kind of wishing that I bought a 40s/Ortho now for the accented Enter key on R2 and the additional R1 mods.

Otherwise, the set looks and feels nice. Glad I finally got to try this profile. I think I like it more than MT3 or SA. Can't decide If I like this or KAM better. Also still can't decide if I like DSA or KAM better.

I bought kits from zfrontier and half of them are missing keys. I highly recommend checking yours kits when they come in.

I'm still waiting for mine to be delivered by Daily Clack. Their support ticket implementation is such a pain in the ass it's the last time I'm ever buying anything from them.
