[FINISHED] Faux Cherry Red ESC + RGBY modifier kit

[lightsout714]

are we able to put our name down on some extras? because i would love to

I tried recently but he said there was more supply then demand so no need. Maybe thats changed?

[hashbaz]

Yeah I'm not taking pre-orders for the extras.  I'll put up a thread for them after I get the original orders squared away.

[wongster]

Man, I'm excited for these keys. Maybe it's because of the nostalgic RGBY color scheme, or perhaps just the thought of getting a nice red escape finally.

[tjweir]

We're close!  

Excited for these keys.

Thanks again, hashbaz.

[hashbaz]

Yup, they should ship to me on Thursday!

[Reptile]

Lots of pictures please ;-)

Also if they look good we need moogle buy asap. r4 prices are insane for white

We all need a moogle kit GB where the GB actually ends.......

[Reptile]

GBs start.  They never end.  Witness Group Key Buy Three and my LOD keys.

Not if I run it :blabla:

[hashbaz]

My plan is to start up a third round moogle buy soon after I ship the RGBY orders.  Hopefully the new Ctrl/Alt/Shift legends will look good enough not to require adjustment.  Then we'll just need new legends for Caps Lock, Win, and Menu.  Some people have been agitating for including Tab, Enter, and Backspace too, but that seems like overkill to me.

[rainb1ood]

Just curious if this third moogle GB will offer white/beige/black/etc ?

The plan is for both light and dark sets, yeah.

I think next moogle kit should include both shifts instead of just right shift. Everything else is over kill (enter, tab, backspace)

[hashbaz]

Works for me.  Again, hopefully the left shift legend from this buy won't need adjustment.

[tsangan]

Don't you find it odd that your enter/tab/backspace feels different then your other modifiers and also they look different too?

I dunno maybe it's just me then

Definitely a left shift though.

We need Dolch colourway too hashbaz, you promised me!!!!!

[byFd]

may i ask why left shift? the one from my white ansi cherry doubleshots fits my filco

[hashbaz]

Oh snap, that's right.  I'm happy to include Dolch colors, but no promises on the price of course if there's not a ton of demand...

[Kisakuku]

So it matches the right shift.

Also, I support the Dolch moogle.

[byFd]

huh? my right shift fits too, is my set different then the others? anyway, need a moogle for ctrl alt and whatever xD

[tsangan]

To match the other shift, and also some people only have RGB Cherry sets

There is tons of demand

[hashbaz]

Since there are some moogle customers here, let me ask a question.  Is doing a dedicated moogle buy so close to R4's (presumed?) end a **** move?

[hashbaz]

There is tons of demand

Really?  My impression is that there aren't a ton of Dolch owners.

[Kisakuku]

Yours does, but quite a few people have double shots from G81-1800 boards with a short right shift.

[tsangan]

R4 will never close, whenever it's close to closing 7Bit adds new stuff, then everything gets more expensive and then more complaining, then 7Bit adds more stuff, rinse and repeat.

I want my moogle kits before 2014 please

Really?  My impression is that there aren't a ton of Dolch owners.

Black DS people can use Dolch moogle too, 2 tone is in!

[demik]

What we really need is a wyse moogle kit. Shouldn't be too much since it's sp's font

[byFd]

ah tanks for the clarifications.
also about the Round 4 thing, i would get in touch with 7bit and check how many buyers for moogle sets there are. i assume that you can take them over if you do a dedicated moogle buy. less stress for 7bit i suppose.

[demik]

Don't you find it odd that your enter/tab/backspace feels different then your other modifiers and also they look different too?

Honestly, it does. But I don't use them enough to justify spending cash for them.

Shifts, on the other hand, get used a lot.

Either way, I'm buying next moogle kit.

[tsangan]

Yeah this should be cheap

[hashbaz]

I would include a Wyse version, but it would complicate pricing.  Might be better off as its own buy.

[jwaz]

YES, do the moogle kit! Dolch/ Black/ White!!! and Cycloverid legends yah?

[lightsout714]

Since there are some moogle customers here, let me ask a question.  Is doing a dedicated moogle buy so close to R4's (presumed?) end a **** move?

I would say no.  Rd4 is about sets mostly. Theres a huge demand for moogles. But very few people want to pay 50 bucks for them. Any ideas on pricing? Should be similar to the rgb set no? Maybe a little more.

[inlikeflynn]

+1 WYSE moogle kit please!

[bavman]

I'm in for a wyse kit too

[DanGWanG]

+1 dolch moogle

[Reptile]

Would it really complicate it? I mean I think one group with the 4 different types would be best.

CHERRYBLACK
CHERRYWHITE
CHERRYDOLCH
CHERRYWYSE

I know I would get all 4 :-)

CHERRYDOLCH
CHERRYWYSE

Complicates it just because it's different font and whatnot where the all 3 Cherry would be the same font

I think it should have it's own GB also.

[hashbaz]

I was thinking mainly of spreading the cost of new legends across the Cherry/Dolch kits but not the Wyse kits.  It's not that much work, I suppose.

[litster]

This keyboard needs more CHERRYWYSE moogle kit.

[lightsout714]

I know I would get all 4 :-)

Dang! Must be nice

[dorkvader]

I have three WYSE sets, I'd be in for 1-2 WYSE moogle kits.

'cause WYSE is the best. You might also want to add an option for the ever-popular WYSE arrows, but that might be more suitable if the WYSE is it's own GB.

Do we know what color gray & blue would be for the WYSE moogle kit? If we do I could run that one separate if that makes it easier for the other 3 using the new legends

Dunno, but I have a set of ABS color samples we can use to figure out the closest match if needs be.

[dorkvader]

I'd be happy to mail you some of my spare WYSE keys if you'd like to colour match.

[hashbaz]

Ha, I forgot that I actually have a Wyse set.  They're just so brittle that I haven't bothered to put them on a keyboard. :-/

Would prefer a 1.5x modifier set too.
Wyse front row are not usable on other keyboards.

[dorkvader]

Hah. My thick set isn't brittle at all (I suppose 'cause they're thick) and my thin sets are too new to be brittel (Except the spacebar, but it's 10x)

Would prefer a 1.5x modifier set too.
Wyse front row are not usable on other keyboards.

I used the front-row capslock key as backspace for several months.

One point about WYSE: If anyone harvested from the full-size boards, then they're okay with shift, backspace, etc. But all the terminal 'boards I have are smaller, and the right shift, backspace, etc are too small. Would there be a possibility for an "addon kit" including this, or would I be out in the cold with no shift or backspace?

Just make it one big kit so everything matches

[litster]

dorkvador is correct.  The keys in my picture are from 2 sets of caps.  The alpha-numeric keycaps are thick from non-full size Wyse, the other keys are thin from full size Wyse.  They feel very solid to type on.  Notice the ~` key is shorter because that key was on a different row on the non-full size Wyse keyboard.

[Quarzac]

Hey, I talked to Hashbaz, and I'm going to run the WYSE moogle buy and he's going to run the others. I'll get started on that as soon as possible. If someone could give me a SP friendly list of the necessary keys, I'll get things rolling on it. Let's say one list with just the mods and another with the proposed "addon kit". I'll get quotes and decide what's best from there.

[demik]

I would need an "add on" kit as well since both my sets came from terminal boards.

[The_Ed]

I'm not old enough to have even seen a wyse board. I only see cherry POS here in Minnesota. And the businesses throw them out when they get dirty... Dumbasses... Then they replace them with cheapo ****astic rubber domes!

My dad's work threw out a bunch of boards with clears!... I only found out after the fact.
