If anyone has last minutes thoughts and wants to sell their order, hit me up.

there are a couple of prototypes floating around (one from yutski, another from a guy on reddit) if you are looking for the same general thing.

Take into consideration that the prototypes do not have the same level of quality as the final product. It is also pretty cool to own a prototype too.

The invoice for shipping fee should be from Yongjk. Sorry for the confusion.

Mine is reached Vietnam. Waiting customs clearance.

KnivesM · « **Reply #323 on:** Thu, 15 October 2015, 22:43:38 »

Mine arrived today safe and sound, but you will have to deal with crappy potato photos till later or someone with a real camera gets theirs.

Initial thoughts; it looks amazing, no flaws what so ever. The little white specs you can see are from the styrofoam.

It's nice and heavy, not as heavy as my LZ-FE, granted the LZ does have switches and caps that the TGR doesn't.

What color did you get, and what PCB does it use?

Black with Steel Plate, and someone moved my allen wrench set and I can't find it right now so I can't tell you that quite yet, will look more or buy a new one tomorrow.

Okay, thanks. Will have to wait a bit longer to get mine as Yong is building mine and he's waiting on some Zealios!

tuantruong · « **Reply #327 on:** Fri, 16 October 2015, 04:00:23 »

Still waiting for mine, just check the tracking number, it returned
"Your item has been processed through our sort facility in ISC NEW YORK NY(USPS) at 9:22 pm on October 12, 2015."
So nothing happened after 4 days. Is anyone in the same boat with me?
Hopefully it will arrive safe and sound.

I've had stuff sort through there and arrive a week or two later at my door. That's just the international sorting facility.

Yeah that's happening to me right now as well. Whenever that happens it'll take a few days for it to go through customs in my experience but the tracking will reflect that the process only took a day or so.

i know you mentioned towards the end here yutski that you ended up losing money during this GB 8( however the boards look absolutely gorgeous and I really hope you do another run and are able to adjust the pricing so that it doesn't end up costing you out of pocket. I love how fast you ran this GB and by all appearances seems you turned out a quality product in a pretty amazing timeframe !!!! Round 2 round 2 round 2

Nah, I still make some profit, just that the amount is very little. Due to some silly mistakes i made.
Yongjk has been laughing at me, he probably makes more from the assembly services

Some issues need be solved before I can start the next round.
I am now experimenting with aluminum 6061, 7075 and Alcoa Mic 6.

To be perfectly honest, Its a bit of a mystery to me as well. I originally ordered black but messaged yuktsi about a color option not exactly on the original list. yuktsi said Titanium would be close to that color I showed but I got busy with work and it fell off my radar.

I'm really happy with what came though, I was slightly regretting going with black so I'm very pleased with this surprise! To answer your original question, I think it should be the titanium.
