Okay. I would of ordered more keys if they could of, but it's cool.

It says 7 keys for me. Can you drop the cherry or do I have to take that to get Pac-Man? Also looks to be 2 Pac-Mans. Can you make my order the following?

1x Royal Blue Ghosts Arrow Cluster
1x Royal Blue Custom R4 Pac-Man

You can get just a Pac-Man, just doing full sets makes the lives or Bunny and I easier.

So you want to drop the other sets you had order and do only the following?

1x Royal Blue Ghosts Arrow Cluster (4 caps)
1x Royal Blue Custom Pac-Man R4 (1 cap)

Since we hit 500, it's 5 days after I get the mock-up pics from Sleabo (Dan) from Qwerkeys.  I'll make that more clear in the OP.

I should say samples, not mock-ups.

In either case, the GB should be closing soon.  Since it seems like there's a roughly two week lead on printing, hopefully everyone will have their caps in hand in another month and a half.  That all depends on how quickly people pay, how quickly they get printed, and how quickly things ship though.

Whats the deadline on this ?

It's variable, but it will be closing soon.  I should be getting sample pics some time next week and the GB will close and go into invoicing 5 days after.

Ok, so it seems like when I asked Dan about how the MOQ is calculated, there were some miscommunications.  I'll get back to you about it with pricing as it stands.

Checked! My order looks ok. Better look elsewhere before I get tempted to add in more key caps. Let us know once you've sorted out the MOQ.


The Order Confirmation Form is now up.  Please double check your orders and make sure everything is correct.  I have added some comments for some of you that need clarification.

I've recently gotten my girlfriend into mechanical keyboards. I showed her this post and she fell in love with these caps; she wants me to revise my order to include the following:

leaf - magenta on white key (R1)
leaf - green on black key (R1)
leaf - magenta on black key (R1)

B & W space invaders - black on white keys (R1)
B & W space invaders - white on black keys (R1)
color space invaders - black keys (R1)

Pac-Man Ghosts - white keys (R1)
Pac-Man Ghosts - white keys (R4, arrow cluster)
Pac-Man Vulnerable Ghosts - white keys (R1)
(2x) Pac-Man & Cherry - white keys (R1)
(8x) Small Dots - white keys (R1)
(2x) Big Dots - white keys (R1)


Thanks nubbinator! I hope this isn't an inconvenience.

Yes.  When I talked to Dan, he said ok, we hit the MOQ and we should be on the lowest pricing tier.  I've got to update the who ordered what list.  The GB will close 5 days after the samples come in.

I don't.  From what I was told, there was a breakdown with one or some of the machines used for printing the caps and there's a backlog, so I'm not 100% sure when the samples will be ready.

I just got a better photo of the greys (and there's a photo of the grey in the OP), but was waiting on posting it in case there were other greys that might be options since we were hoping to match the Nintendo greys.

Will the final color look THAT saturated.. I didn't think this quality of printing was available without custom color mixing.

Samples are inbound.  We'll see what the final color looks like.  It is getting a light base print first then a the color printing on top of that to ensure a more uniform look across the different caps.

First off, please double check that your order is correct in this spreadsheet:

Order Confirmation Spreadsheet

If there is a note to contact me about something, please do so.  I try my best to double check I have everything correct, but I am not perfect and when organizing something like this that has more complex options than normal, errors are bound to pop up.  If there are errors in your order and you do not contact me to correct them, I will not be held responsible since I have given ample opportunity to contact me and correct them.  If you have any questions about your order at all or the spreadsheet, please contact and I will gladly help you with them.

One common issue is that people did not specify the color of the caps for their Pac Man dot caps.  If you did not specify and do not contact me with the color, I will arbitrarily assign a color to the caps you ordered.  Most likely it will be black.

Now onto samples.  I got some sample images in today, so that means that ordering will close on the 11th and we will go to invoicing shortly after.  Keep in mind that there are still some small things to work out with the caps (such as placement on the cap) and there are colors being used that won't be used for the caps we send off to be made, but these give you a good idea of what the final product will look like.





There are additional images in this album.  Sorry for them being underexposed, I didn't take the pictures.

Lastly, for those of you who asked about the greys being used, I just recently got feedback and it will be the middle grey and the one directly to the right of it (#3 and #4 if you count from the left):



If you do not like these greys or one of the greys, let me know now. It is still something that can be changed if there is a sufficient push to do so.  These two greys were picked though because we were trying to get as close as we could to the original Nintendo greys.

Finally got around to putting in my order, but I think I might have made a mistake. I chose "Other International" instead of "European Union" because Norway is not part of the EU, what I'm trying to say is that I would like Bunny to handle my order if you guys don't manually check the destination country on each order since Norway is a part of Europe and not far from the island Bunny calls home.

We will be checking and splitting it manually.  Bunny will take care of what is traditionally considered Europe and I'll take care of the rest.

To be honest, I only really agreed to organize this because I wanted Commander Keen caps.  The Megaman ones are pretty awesome as well though.
