[IC] DSS LightCycle R3VIVAL

DSS LightCycle R3VIVAL
A rerun with blessings from evangs AKA Trash Man.

Greetings, User...

The TLDR
Signature Plastics DSS LightCycle rerun with kitting changes:
Forced text novelties on base because most molds already exist
Introduced new icon novelties inspired by some DJs seen at the End of Line Club in Legacy
'End of Line' enter legends are to be made publicly available for anyone to use after GB runs

Base Kit factory pricing quoted at USD $94.52 at 50 MOQ, inclusive of new legends
Looking for feedback (IC Form Here) from the wider community on kitting, especially text/icon novelty choices to help optimize child kits
Actively seeking vendors


Current Kits and Quotes
Currently based on factory pricing at 50 MOQ, inclusive of new legends
Subject to change with vendors/feedback

END_USER (Base Kit) - USD $94.52


PROGRAM (Alt Alphas) - USD $53.75


IS0 - USD $15.24

My question is whether folks would want the forced novelty, or just slap a `RETURN` on it

40S_ORTHO_EXT - USD $56.84

Update 1 Sept. 2025
Forgot to include 2 2u bars in render, working to update render to match the original quote
Will include LightCycle icon novelty in kit, adjacent key(s) will be removed from icon novelties set

ICON_NOVS - Novelties - USD $53.51

New Icons by Flabby
Some keys will most definitely be removed to tame cost, please fill out the IC Form
New icons are subject to change for legal distinction and lines optimization for fabrication

ACCENT_BARS - USD $23.38

For a Light Ribbon effect on LightCycle Alt keys
Liable to be removed, as per IC Form

Photos of the Real Thing
In lieu of keyboard renders, I have decided to use photos of the real thing from DSS LightCycle 2021, in various layouts

The color chips are very deliberate, consider the possibility for future runs with different colorways

Love seeing the TK40x used in a render but one complaint: should have used the 1.25u R2 derezz key at top right instead of R4 mcp key!

Anyways love the set, GLWIC

It's a photo of a previous run and not a render. Some renders are forthcoming.

GLWIC!

I'd love to see a render with the END_USER mods and the PROGRAM alphas! Love me some mono sets.
