(GB) PENUMBRA SA KEYSET(shipping)

[xondat]

Is there any update as to a round 2 of Penumbra? Estimate as to when it may begin?

Nothing official, just soon iirc.

[TheVengeance]

We live in hope. It sucks as I love solarized

[davorb]

Ignore that guys joke interest check

Both penumbra gmk and sp sa are in the works

We have a spreadsheet of everything outstanding on this, nerdly has it across his table right now

There are 10 things to ship from this buy, aboit 4 proper orders and some missing kits, all are on hand and being sorted last night to confirm every key

bunny would this be the appropriate place to ask if you're willing to give the information
is the GMK set going to come with yellow or white alphas?
thanks for the work to get a second round done regardless

Is there a way to get notified of this, once it gets off the ground? An email list would be ideal, as I don't frequent these forums often enough to be confident that I won't miss the GB.

[TheVengeance]

you can subscribe to this topic, but then you get emails when people post things like yours and mine

[rioc]

oh, I'm not sure if it has been asked before (maybe even by me), but any chance R2 could be DSA profile? 

[Laurel]

Hype is real!

[canigetanipa]

Does anyone happen to have the 2U "+" keycap from the numpad set (as pictured here: http://i.imgur.com/RyZELlz.png) that they are not using? I need one please (or pretty much any other 2U keycap from this set will work also)!

[spookydoge]

Any word on whether R2 will have an Ergodox kit?

[limitz]

Any idea on when Brocaps will start shipping out the remaining ~10 orders or so? I read through the Hyperfuse thread, and I'm assuming whenever the remaining Hyperfuse orders ship out, these will start shipping as well?

Thanks.

I would also be interested in this information as I'm one of the sad few that hasn't gotten his keys from this group buy yet.

Just posting a quote from another thread that is relevant

spoke to cody a few days ago, he confirmed everything is checked and packed and quoted and he jsut needed to either arrange to borrow a car or have them collected as its 3 very large packages

i havent spoken to him since but im going to leave a message now, just wanted to keep people up to date as best as i can even when the update is limited

also just to let people know, its my birthday weekend (birthdays on monday) but i have a very busy schedule the next few days so my availability for replies or contact will be fairly limited until tuesday, sorry for any inconvenience this causes but i have tuesday set aside to get completely on top of any pms or support tickets etc

thanks 

[GreyAmbience]

I am so down for round 2!

Hyperfuse, Penumbra and other misc sets have been shipped to MomCaps. These sets will not be sorted and shipped until all of the last orders from the Invasion Pt II have been shipped. MomCaps is doing this to help ctrl alt and will do it just as quickly as possible once the Bro Caps stuff is done. A realistic expectation would be January for when those sets will start shipping. Thanks for you patience.

a shame they changed the profile to what they chose... if change it, I'd have hoped for 2-2-3-3-3-3 Filco profile

[r3nfr0]

Awesome... starting at 255. I am still going to buy a few. It's just so awesome.

Can't actually order yet. It's going to be hard to concentrate until I have an order in!

WTF??? You must be kidding, right?

[ihalatch]

Yeah, I've just got SA HyperFuse and SA Penumbra. That's awesome! Thanks mate for providing the link.

You can only order 1set... multiple orders will get you disqualified from GB...

I just ordered and payed my set right now

[r3nfr0]

Yeah, I saw that. Bummer!  I did order my one set. Apple Pay made that super easy.

It's only a normal set though?  No ergodox or add on sets?

yeah, just what you see on the last pic with all the extra keys... fine by me, it'll fit my ramabae or RSIII perfectly fine

[r3nfr0]

I like that they are keeping it simple. This set looks so good I can make it work.

But it's not all r3, is it? That's the primary reason I wanted this set. Ah, well.

[a_ak57]

Man, I really wish 6u space bars were on SA sets other than Danger Zone. 

[rioc]

But it's not all r3, is it? That's the primary reason I wanted this set. Ah, well.

original set wasn't uniform R3 either...

it was 1-2-3-3-3-4 I think... I'd prefer all R3, or 2-2-3-3-3-3 too

[dsaf]

WTF??? You must be kidding, right?

Yeah, I couldn't believe it doesn't have ISO UK either  . They have got to be kidding at that price.

yeah... at least it's got ISO... I don't really need the proper legends

Are you sure? I could've sworn it was all r3.

Well, that is interesting. I still prefer that one, though.

same, over the full profile they went with now 

[MandrewDavis]

No solarized alphas, not sure whether I like or dislike the move to keep that an R1 exclusive. Also, KBDIST says R2 is semi-gloss, is that any different than R1?

All SA is semi gloss.

All SA is semi gloss.

I was under the impression that SA Commando and Amazing Chocolatier have a semi-matte finish? So there is difference?

I would say the difference between semi matte and semi gloss is just semantics. Every set I've ever used has been the same, and could fit both of those descriptions. I have not tried the two you named though, so I could be wrong, but doubt SP has two sets of molds for SA.

Well, commando 23 has a gritty texture where as i.e. 1976 has a smooth surface

[atectatifern]

Sold out already.

Really?

That was fast...  Also didn't know it was limited

Wow, that lasted about 2h

[chuckdee]

It's a pre-order in the pipeline for an Estimated Delivery of May to early June 2017.  Considering Godspeed is going at the end of march, I'd say they fronted the money, and this wasn't a group buy.  Considering the date of delivery, and some veiled hints by BunnyLake, I think they ordered it last year sometime, and fronted the money, like they did for GMK Hyperfuse. Considering how this GB went, they probably wanted to avoid any delays or even the hint of this production not going well.

[atectatifern]

Well, that sucks rocks. Wanted this for awhile, but not badly enough to pay the inevitable scalpers.
