Hey Everyone!
Base Kit Preorders are currently available for $129. We're placing our Purchase Order with GMK shortly and once it has been confirmed, they'll provide us with a new estimated shipping date which we will announce.
Cancellations are accepted up until the shipping date, with no fees charged for cancellations. No-hassle returns for US and International customers are accepted until 30 days after you've received your keycaps.
Welcome to the Drop + FU11.META1 GMK Mecha-01 R2 set!
We are really excited about being able to bring back this set. We hope you enjoy the kits, thanks for dropping by!
I will be editing this comment here to keep you updated on the project so stay tuned...
Is anyone able to give an update on shipping / delivery dates? Estimated ship date was November 30th, and I haven't got any indication of whether that was hit or not..
The authenticity is in the factory mold and patent for the original Cherry brand keycap profile and machines. No one can get the colors as vibrant. Another company severely business minded has stepped up to the plate and are clearly showing that they are a great equal contender. And now they have blessed us with a rerelease of this glory. I cant wait :D
> but you probably shouldn't represent what you're talking about as being the genuine article
The point was kind of hit home with the addition of "It makes supporting authentic artists extremely inconvenient in comparison"... Suggesting the other items are inauthentic.
I'm sorry if my phrasing wasn't "correct" in your mind - I'm just frustrated that a pre-order takes almost 2 years to fulfil, and was venting a little about it.
CONINI know this is a late reply but I wanted to respond for anyone else passing by this thread. Yes, cherry profile keycaps in general (which includes GMK) will have interference issues with the drop alt (high and low profile) because that keyboard is outdated and utilizes north facing switches. This means that the keycap shape will bump into the switch when you press down since the LED hole is at the top and the larger side is at the bottom where the keycap hits
Is there anyway you could start shipping to South Africa within the next two years so we might be able to acquire this set or even put the set on amazon for an increased price. We do not mind in paying shipping and understand we literally live thousands of kilometers away. If it's couriers you're worried about we have DHL down here and they're extraordinarily great.
Kind Regards,
