This is fantastic. Maybe have accents in a separate kit so people interested in both base kits aren't paying for them twice.

Is it me, or is regular numpad R1 1u missing from the base kits?

Great kitting otherwise. I hope the prices end up being reasonable, it'd be cool to get these legends made in doubleshot.

Might we possibly get base color 1.5u command keys for 7u macOS users? The 1u command keycaps just seem so wrong next to 1.5u option keys; IMO they should be swapped. Otherwise I really like this set!

Super interested in this set, but a little concerned/curious as to why the kitting shows only one 1u control icon in all three of the black, beige, and red rather than 2 of each like the command and alt keys.

Other than that, instabuy

Non-accent 1.5u OS/Command keys are included, they're just beside the right 1.5u Ctrl in the base kit renders.

Only one 1u Ctrl in sets has been a thing for a while. Do you know any modern, non-40% keyboards/layouts that use 2× 1u Ctrl? They're exceedingly rare. I can only think of the original Cherry G80-1800, but I wouldn't exactly call that a modern or popular layout anymore.
You can always use the wildcard >_ key as a replacement for the second 1u Ctrl if you really need it.

They are indeed, my bad for not looking to the right! Cheers.

Finally! been waiting for this set to rerelease in this profile, but would rather have the same katakana sublegends as the EC keyset.
Please consider offering an alternate alpha add on

Also new EC version of this when?

Thank you biip <3

I feel the same. Even when I already like the set, I'd probably won't buy it due to the lack of sublegends.

Depending on the success of this upcoming pre-order, we're considering a run with sub legends. But that's tough to envisage because it's a cost and a MOQ.

Since this is a very Mac-oriented set, could I request that the international kit include an R4 tilde/backtick key? It’s part of the layout of a Mac UK-ISO keyboard, and to date I usually put a random key there. But for a proper endgame keycap set like this, it’d be great to have it included!

You could of course make an argument for including plus-minus/section, but I don't tend to worry so much about this key with a 65% layout.

This very cool, only thing I would want is a option for text mods, but still nice nonetheless.

cherry blacks - unlubed - filmed and springswapped with tx 55g mediums - alu Plate | pretty happy with this, the blacks were cherry picked so they weren't that scratchy to begin with, but currently breaking them in, may lube them with a dry lube like ro59 or ptfe powder.

lubed with tribosys 3203 | like topre a lot, prefer it lubed but did make less tactile but that might have been a skill issue. probably will get more tactile over time as the domes age.

bad orange alps lol | definitely needs a restoration. planning on wax boiling them and maybe a replacement pcb because the board has only 2 key rollover apparently.

gateron yellows - lubed with 205g0 - 62g tx mediums - pc plate | probably my favourite keyboard already, feels super nice and sounds pretty good, it's got a great layout as well. probably gonna build this with mx browns, I feel like it would suit the board more.
| camo filco

stock with silent reds | Pretty cool looking board, the silent reds are actually good, they are smooth and I don't mind the mushiness (it's not even that mushy as well). the layout is pretty weird, but is useable. will probably mod this in the future. maybe a pcb and plate swap, change the keycaps to something dolch like, and also spring swap the springs in the silent reds.

stock, needs a cleaning and probably replacement foam. Do plan to change layout so it has split bs and rs, as well as ansi enter.

Built with new nixies on pc half plate. Love this board already, probably the best looking board I own, those brass accents are so mint. Really like it as is, but I do want to try an alu build (probably with nixies as well) just to experiment with that.

Are the huge, centered, nav icons a manufacturing limitation or are they a deliberate choice?
It looks very inconsistent considering the legends and most other mods are on the upper left side. I understood the decision on MT3 profile, but here it looks a bit off.

Otherwise than that, this is a great looking set and good luck with the sell!  :thumb:

I'd rather see 3-key 40% support instead of wasting efforts on international kits that are never actually international
