Ti Attack on Titan Keycaps

um....$800?  Is that the real price or does imsto just do that to stop you from buying until he picks a final price?

Titanium, and hand made.  If you look at them they are extremely intricate.  It would (probably) take hours to do each one.  Plus cost of materials.  Plus special tools.

It is feasible that they are $200 each.  $800 for the set.

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

I won't question the price as I will question the person who is willing to pay it  :-X

Wow. That set was 400.00 until recently.

What happened that they doubled in price ? Someone corner the titanium market or something.

Previous Ti caps like the Starcraft set were $50 a key. Now the lone Darksiders Ti key is $69. Only difference I could guess is the handmade for the Attack on Titan caps.

What would be cool is the top of the 60m class titan's head keycap. Like he's peeking over your number row  :eek:
