[IC] is0GR2 - brand new colours, same great taste!
« on: Fri, 29 August 2025, 10:10:52 »



Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse.




Specs/features:

Inspired by Blacksimon's is0, and also the OGR/2 by AKB (if you didn't buy one, you're dead to me)
10° typing angle, perfected in 1984 and never questioned since
Full 6063 aluminium case + polycarbonate plate
Bead-blasted, anodised, and scientifically proven to look expensive
Top-mounted plate, to type harder
QMK compatible USB-C PCB by Cipulot, with VIA/VIAL support
Said PCB is a hybrid and hotswap, compatible with both regular MX switches, and also EC Naevies
5 colours to choose from (+ a special mystery version)
Fat boy 100g
13 screws for just one key Now with 15 screws!!!
jesus christ
Still a keyboard of all time


I couldn't be bothered to make a new one of these so this is just yoinked from R1



Colourways:










Layout Compatibility:




GB details:

$90
Launching October 3rd


No I don't have other vendors yet

If you've read through all this and have still decided you want to buy one, congratulations. It’s $90, the margins are s**t, and I’m not entirely sure this isn’t just performance art at this point I don't know what else to tell you.

head pats to:

Blacksimon in advance for giving me an eggplant
Cipulot for doing as he's told (and basically handling the only design change for R2)
Homoti for being my muse, my true love, and an eternal well of inspiration

and extra special heartfelt thanks to:

James (AKB) for designing this

This is amazing!  :))

How many Tic Tacs can you fit in the pen slot? This is very important to me.

You didn't specify alignment so I tested both:

  • 3 horizontal
  • 5 vertical

EU vendor please
Please think about ISO users, add a split left shift to your "alice style" keyboards
