Hello everyone!

I'm back with another SA single run set, this time I'm pushing forward a space themed project of mine.

The keyset was inspired in the Apollo Program from NASA and I fell like the theme should be explored like this.

It's is going to be available for purchase by summer, 2016.

In case you're worried about prices, the set is gonna be very affordable due to the fact that many molds I'm using already exist.

Thanks for coming by, let me know what you think.

Godspeed,

MiTo

Dedicated to mom, dad and the dog. Not Jenny. Jenny is a *****.

Godpseed Hype! Looking great MiTo, another fantastic set of your creation.

Also very cool that you added in a White Fox kit, I'm sure a lot of people will be glad about that.

FLFisherman · « **Reply #3 on:** Sun, 10 January 2016, 17:55:57 »

I like this theme. Looks like something from Disney's Tomorrowland.

^{^{^{It's dedicated to me. =D}}}

Very nice indeed, any idea on the time frame/when it will be on MD?

I'm more interested in the MOQ at this point. Especially for the child deals and what would happen if MOQ is not reached.

KetchyKech · « **Reply #9 on:** Sun, 10 January 2016, 19:31:14 »

light blue and yellow accents?!?!?! ....true fox extras??....

i absolutely love it ~ the convinience of it being on massdrop is just icing on da cake

It's great to see another greatly designed SA set hit the GB scene! Good luck with the drop!

I'm glad this is finally getting a release. I'm all for this!

Can someone explain the Tsangan pack to me? In particular, I don't understand the shift key being R3 instead of R4 like the other shift keys in the base pack or like the other 1.75u shift in the Whitefox kit.

heedpantsnow · « **Reply #15 on:** Sun, 10 January 2016, 21:57:10 »

Wow, a keyset that comes with a 1.25x Fn in the main set? Amazing! I swore I wouldn't do SA again but this might win me over. And the row profiles aren't as aggressive as default SA....hmmmm.....when does this drop?

The Whitefox kit is super convenient. Also, it's a very nice detail to include a "Launch" and "Stow" for the ISO kit.

For myself it's based on lesson personal preference both with respect to the key set and designers.

Also, Classic Space will use a new and more suitable font.

Ah I see, I'm not one for politics (if there is any?) so I'll try support both, and hopefully at different times.

Too bad, especially since he had a pretty quick timeline set up. I think orders were supposed to start in a few weeks. :/

Why would he not ask a moderator to move it properly? Now all the questions/feedback/info in this thread is either nuked or orphaned.

A mod can still merge the threads.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure he mentioned a specific date in early Feb as to when it would be on Massdrop.

I'm facing some difficulties about the Interest Check thread with the moderation, but everything is fine and will be sorted out tonight. I apologize for this confusion and kindly ask you to hang on, I'll update this thread in a couple of hours.

Thank you for the attention and support.

In case anyone want signature banners or avatars to promote the buy, you are more than welcome to create one yourself - or just request and I'll gladly make you one!

I wouldn't mind a banner to put in my signature. I think absolutely everyone should know about this beautiful keyset.

I'm just not sure I like the alphas color.

Will the child kits be available for purchase on their own, or is the basic kit mandatory?
(never bought keysets on Massdrop before)

Rafa_n · « **Reply #42 on:** Fri, 15 January 2016, 04:48:13 »

I think you should add some more color to the base. Maybe a some of the yellow and red keys that you have on the novelties kit, move them to the base kit?

VinnyCordeiro · « **Reply #43 on:** Fri, 15 January 2016, 05:01:00 »

I assume that this buy will use SP's newly made row 4 molds for the shift keys, am I right?

building_an_ergo · « **Reply #44 on:** Fri, 15 January 2016, 05:37:24 »

This set looks really cool.

I don't want to spend more money! Stop making such cool things!

My only concern is the numpad.

Does it not have an option for a blue + to match the rest?

lekingmeow · « **Reply #45 on:** Fri, 15 January 2016, 08:48:07 »

I want in! So sexy.

Was waiting for your Sci-Fi set but this is just gorgeous! I will have to buy both for my first keysets :-)

First of all, I'm sorry for the delayed reply and thank you very much for coming by. About you question, the Tsangan shift keycap was meant to be R4 too. But now that you mentioned I'll have to check if Signature Plastics can manufacture 1.75u "SHIFT" legended keys on R4, there was something about they not being able to make such keys in the past but I forgot what the issue is. I don't know if the R4 was the problem or if it was the 1.75u size, but there used to be an issue with this keycap. I'll e-mail Melissa and get back to you as soon as I have an answer. Stay tuned.

(never bought keysets on Massdrop before)

The idea behind the set is to make your keyboard look like something from the 60's NASA. Therefore the faded tones and retro feel. The child kits will be available separetly, but I'd recomend you to get at least the Basic Kit too.

100% agree. They look awesome and I'd imagine would be a fairly popular addon.
