Bro Caps Therapy

[Sed8op8]

That MX gamer set swag  thank you bro just thank you

You won't be thanking him when I wins them all.

Aaaaahaaaaa touché

[Nai_Calus]

Hnnnngh. Dat griiiid.

Still no update on that tracking. >_< Still just stuck on 'Pre-Shipment Info Sent to USPS' despite having been sent out yesterday morning according to the sender. I'm not horrifically worried yet, it was submitted electronically and if it was put in an outgoing mailbox or dropped through a slot or given to a carrier I've seen the tracking never update due to lazy, and it hasn't been enough time yet for it to get to my state if they managed to not scan it on the way out, but I've still got the 'irreplaceable bro caps in the mail' jitters.

[Air tree]

I'm sad that Bro's stem design for MX won't work with bunny's sliders... HHKB will be gamer set-less from now on. 

I'm planning on keeping one stock slider on the Escape key so I can at least have a bro on there.   

Maybe Bro will redesign it to be compatible with Novatouch sliders with his new ones.  I also have a stem I designed that's squared off and stronger than the round stems, but still Novatouch compatible, that I'd be willing to share with him.

I can hope.

So the wife and I were heading home from dinner tonight, and we pulled up behind a Cadillac SUV thing.  And in the emblem on the tailgate, I saw what my brain recognized as a cross between a Bro Bot, and one of Bros Reapers.  I distinctly saw the Bro Bot eyes, but the bottom of the emblem looked like the jaw line and teeth of the reaper.

I need help.

[Nai_Calus]

There is no help. There is only ZuulBro.

The package USPS was sitting on their thumbs with came, now I'm waiting for an inbound and being irritated that the outbound hasn't started tracking yet. Stupid slow USPS.

On the bright side the inbound has at least made it to the US from Australia, I assume it's currently being scanned for hitchhiking spiders and dropbears. So sometime this coming week it should be hereeeee.

I expect an unusually high amount of pictures.

Went to a meet up today. There were a few folks unfamiliar with Bro Caps. I got a lot of "Oh my god. Are those TESTICLES??? HEY COME LOOK AT THESE!!"

Ahhh, cool cool!  I saw the thread for that one ( ) - was worried there was a Chicago one I missed.    Were you down there already for other stuff or did you go just for the meetup?  Either way, awesome.

In Tucson for family matters, figured I'd make the trip up the Phoenix while the timing was right

I just had the same thought. I'd like to think I'd be aware of a meetup near me.

is it normal for reapers to have a small indent on the southern part of the cap?

[Joey Quinn]

At the bottom of the hood? Yes

Watch out watch out sounds like their might be fake foggy white and clear blue keys floating around :X hope you get it sorted out bro.

PS: Edited it cause I'm a goofball

For reference.

That really sucks.  I hate how scummy people can be.  Of course, it's never about money, it's just about "making things more available".

That color really reinforces my belief that that trans Clack full of bubbles sold on eBay and listed on here was a fake.

:X I had forgotten about that sad thing is it looked really nice too, be a shame if this keeps on as it might just make some give up not out of loss of money but just sick of dealing with this kind of stuff :x

assuming bro is referencing this guy's fakes, basically pump your breaks if someone offers you a trade in colors similar to these (apologies to galactus owners) and talk to bro first:
THESE ARE FAKE

THESE ARE FAKE

this should prob go in fake clack/bro discussion, but i figure this is where people will go to talk about the faq update.

do you know when those pictures are from ?

[btctopre]

do you when those pictures are from ?

i saw them july 14th, so probably not much earlier than that since i generally check international sites once a week or so for keyboard ****.

I double checked my icestorm just to be in the clear found out it might be a unicorn  I always thought it had a slight green tint  ) or it might be a dyed ice storm but not a fake thank god  )

If it's clear and almost looks like ice when you look at it then it's an Icestorm, if it's slightly cloudy and mostly colorless then it's probably a Unicorn Blood.

Edit: also Icestorms are glossy and Unicorns are matte

[skycrimes]

dang one of the fakes looks like a conservative red, hopefully the one I have is real my first bro too

Thanks for the pictures. 

Though, if someone was to offer me a drunken Reaper, I'd be all like

When I traded my Icestorm I had someone tell me it was fake. But the picture didnt show the sparkle on the cap. The color was a little different from the fake ones too.

[strict]

Damn, those keys look haggard! It's so frustrating seeing scum bags ripping off such awesome designs like the v1 Reaper 

[asdfjkl36]

Damn. At least anything similar to those i've already acquired through reputable people.

Sucks people have to even think twice about trading.

[asdfjkl36]

OOOH. Even if they arent for sale. Still wanna buy them !

tfw official sale thread is bumped and i'm not wearing pants.

[baldgye]

Great, more nasty fakes out there. Those kids really dislike the fact Bro is able to produce such awesome quality designs. Now it seems like my efforts could actually help people out rather than just be a checklist ha


Those v2 reapers though, look ****ing great, they look a lot more substantial than the V1's and I can't wait to see what Bro has planned for the first sale colour wise. I also wonder if the added complicity was done to help prevent more gash fakes... Btw Bro, you gotsta make em bright and loud baby!

ya I had to ask bro to look at it and he said he made some unicorns that had green but that there was was also someone that dyed an icestorm green awhile back he couldn't remember who. It's slightly hazy and its not glossy with a very slight green tint

Edit...It looks like I have a unicorn then No **** haha

Man, these fakes!!!I didn't even know they have so many variants now. Omg. This is getting out of hands. We had to be extra careful when trading now. Good thing too, so less shipping fees to pay, lol. Let's just enjoy and be contend with the caps at hand.  Not always lusting for the ones in the bush.

without a doubt ! I trade wayyyyy too much. In one way it's nice because I get to deal with a lot of people And circulate caps into the community on another hand I sometimes end up not fully enjoying my stuff, regretting trades, not fully investigating caps where they come from etc .... I'm just glad I have gotten lucky so far.....!

fake artisans make me sad.    i trust people way too much i think.  i trade a lot, so i will have to be more careful knowing there are this many fakes out there...

Wow. Didn't realize there were fake Reapers out there. That's also a shame about the beer looking one. I'd love to see a beer inspired Bro sale, but I can imagine it'll be more difficult with those fakes out there.

[Reigning Hell]

I just saw this photo of the Nebulus V2 from the Post your Bros thread - I've opened Pandoa's box, pls help.

 and literally got up in my chair and said "daaaamnn" at how the clouds look in these keycaps.

Automatically made this final collection of V2s grail-tier to me lol. Now to eventually getting one 

[absyrd]

So my Powder Puff Purple set officially has some kind of imperfection in the plastic batch or had some kind of reaction with my fingers.

First noticed:


2x efferdent bath:


Brown still there:



This stinks.

Think Binge may have been right, but not sure.
