It's a Qee by Toy2R done in colloboration with domonation and Dark Horse. There's an art store near me that sells a bunch of those mystery toys like that, be they Qee, Kidrobot, or another brand. I can always pick one of those up if you want to add another truly surprise prize to the mix.

That phantom sounds very tempting. Pics? Case?

mkawa · « **Reply #38 on:** Sat, 23 November 2013, 15:15:55 »

it will be sold as a caseless phantom. i will cover the bottom with acrylic conformal coating so that it is impervious to just any anything that could short it and maybe toss some paint over that. i'll then stick some bump-ons on for basic usage; i'll leave it up to the use where to go from there. the phantom looks like any other phantom with green lubed switches (CURRENTLY) cherry stabilizers and a brushed stainless steel plate. the spacebar is a red stem on a clear spring, fully lubed.

mkawa · « **Reply #39 on:** Sat, 23 November 2013, 15:17:09 »

i am confirming all the anonymous donors (only the phantom is mine). once everything is confirmed i will put up the auction rules, timings and bidding will start. it will be a public auction, as with all previous auctions. bids must be placed as posts in this thread, etc.

moogle · « **Reply #40 on:** Sun, 24 November 2013, 00:21:18 »

I hit Ctrl-F and typed in "Domo". I didn't find anything so this is the worst auction ever.

i invented the proper lubing method for clicky switches with this board. 1) it still clicks. 2) it's awesome.
