Do the sets have 2 x 1.25 "geekhack" modifiers?

If so, excellent!

If there's anything I've come to understand about the GB process (and tbh this has been insanely quick), patience is more than a virtue, it's a g-d damned necessity.

The left modifier is a KBDmania modifier.

Not being grumpy, sorry! I just think it looks really good with the two colored modifiers on the bottom, wish I would have ordered two full sets of each now to get that look. :-(

I'd of course have to pay more for shipping.

The bad news: The first round of red cherries won't ship tomorrow like I was hoping.  The black sets are all sorted and accounted for, but I'm not done with the white sets yet.

The good news (for Glissant): Glissant's order is shipping tomorrow as a special case, since he's moving soon.

The good news (for the rest of you): I've dramatically improved my shipping workflow over how I shipped the moogle orders (including getting a new printer that actually works).  So my goal is to get everyone's keys out by the end of this coming week.

I could finish the white sets tonight but I'm tired lol.  Just got back into town from rescuing orphan kittens.
Hash out.

Indeed they do.  One issue that hasn't been discussed yet (the only issue I am aware of, really) is that the G and H keys don't quite line up vertically with the other letter keys.  See the image below.

This is unfortunately a limitation of SP's machinery.  The G and H legends are literally as high up on the key top as they can be.

Will this matter when we get full replica sets as all the keys will have that limitation? or is it limited to only the G and H keys?

It is a global limitation on all keys.  So the slightly lower G and H should match full Cherry replica sets produced later.
