2 Years for production is insane, I would go absolutely insane thinking about when I would get those keycaps which is why i've mostly been buying keycaps 2nd hand. Hope you get them soon!

You can still have it as something that you are looking forward to. Something that's in the back still on your mind :D

I spent 18 months trying to find decent pbt caps for my layout, and even though it's not perfect I jumped the gun. Took 6 months to arrive so I guess m hella lucky

Just in case you haven't heard - they are shipping, got mine from zF last week

Yeah lol I‘ll sell mine once (if ever) I receive them. I have one keyboard now and I kinda don’t wanna build another

I've been holding out for these and using a temp pair this whole time that's not the same profile so I'm worried I'll not be able to get used to them lol

I have seen pics of them. Apparently as mine are coming from Europe I've got to wait another 3-4 months while they ship out.

The best part will be to get two of those F4 keys. Oh yeah, what a jot will that be!

Same 1st gb I joined and that's the last ill ever join, 2½ year wait for plastic where I have a whole kb received in half the amount of time. Just the image of getting defective keys or missing/duplicate keys will just show you clones are superior at a fraction of the cost and the best part less wait time and you can invest the money saved to something else.

Yes zfrontier are shipping them out however if you ordered from cannonkeys they are absolutely shit at keeping their customers informed. I messaged them directly and no response. On their product update page its still in manufacturing but in the email they sent 4months ago it supposedly done at the end of Feb.
sevenfawm OP t1_jeahoth wrote
Yea I agree that's the last ill ever join for sure. I knew I'd be waiting but that long is crazy.
sevenfawm OP t1_jeahpwy wrote
Always on my mind lol

I think of it like this, injection molded plastic which can be produced at a pretty fast pace vs machining blocks of aluminum or cast aluminum which sounds more labor and time consuming. Gmk isn't even that good compared to some of the clones out there, for example the gmk mecha-01 vs a clone the clone has a more accurate color in terms of the darker purple and a more neon looking green. Ppl always say support the artist but the artist didn't do anything literally pick 3 colors with a theme usually inspired by some form of media and make novelties by simplifying a already known symbol/emblem by all means not every set is a copy of something there are original ideas.
sevenfawm OP t1_jeakzru wrote
I agree on the mech01 clones they are much better. I like supporting artists but yeah if it's the same boring thing then it's better to get a clone
DeadliestArmadillo t1_jeal8xi wrote
Clones can be had at 20% of the cost and often delivered within a month. Some of the kits I've seen have generous layout coverage too.
I've joined a couple of Domikey GBs and not been disappointed. There's always extras too.
