That’s why the general rule of thumb is to only purchase lighter colours like white and beige for dye-sub PBT keycaps.

Reverse/5-side dye-sub marketed themselves so well as if it’s the best thing, yet the quality is sub-par most of the time.

And you met the requirements for a redemption arc.

Milkyway seems to be the only one who has a handle on it. PBT Atmosphere is flawless, outside of the caps being tight. It's the only reverse dyesub I've seen without issue. Maybe I got lucky, dunno, but all the other manus doing reverse dyesub seem to suffer from uneven dying and sloppy legends that aren't even, especially Kat. Kat Cyberspace is an outright embarrassment, hard to believe Kono is still trying to sell them they are so bad. Then again even Cannonkeys isn't above selling bad sets/boards at full price either, which is why the pre-order model is so ridiculous. The shops are all incentivized to hide imperfections once they get stock in to avoid taking losses when manufactures fuck up. Right above you a guy says NicePBT Elderberry is unacceptable. Cannonkeys still out there slinging em. Quality control? Never fucking heard of it.
