Hey everyone,
It’s been a long time since we’ve provided a production update about MT3 3277 and wanted to share details about how things have been going.
As many of you are aware, the 3277 set was launched as a second set of keycaps following up our very popular MT3 Susuwatari set. As originally planned by us and Matt3o, we would be creating a new set of keycap tools (the more common term is molds) to accommodate the different kit combinations that were offered with 3277.
For the past 3 months we’ve been working on two production processes, mold design/creation (for the keycaps) and color matching. Color matching has gone smoothly and is complete, but the mold creation process has not been. After much time, money and frustration, we don’t have 3277 keycap molds that are ready for production (some may remember that the mold creation process for MT3 Susuwatari took 2 years instead of the originally quoted 6 months).
Instead of continuing down this route that has an underdetermined end point, and instead of cancelling the project completely, we’ve decided to rekit the 3277 keycap sets and produce the keycaps using the MT3 Susuwatari molds.
The images below outline the changes that we’ll be making to 3277. NOTE: We had to make some compatibility compromises with the new kits. However, the new kits contain more than enough keys to outfit most, if not all, of the popular keyboards available right now.
Due to the magnitude of the kit changes, we will be canceling your order and refunding your method of payment. You should see the funds returned to your account in the next 3-5 business days. If you still want 3277, we’ve started a new run for the newly designed kits at early preorder pricing. This run will be available at the discounted price for 30 days, so you have plenty of time to take a look at the reworked kits and make your selections.
We know that this is a frustrating situation. As a thank you for your early support for this project, we’ve also added a $20 credit to your account for your next purchase (this can even be used towards the new 3277 kits). Your credit expires a year from today and will automatically apply at checkout on your next purchase. If you used your Susuwatari coupon with your initial 3277 purchase, we’ve added that credit back to your account as well.
Thank you so much for your support for this project.

Indeed, moar blanks! Also, this allows for R5 in ABS. After having tried R5 on PBT, I'm no longer buying ABS sets unless they include R5 blanks like 3277 did in the Ergodox set.

Hi, Jaleesa, can we get an update on the blanks and ergo sets and on why Ortho is no longer available to order?

One more asking for an update on the Ergodox kit situation.. What is going on and why are we in radio silence?

The person who was handling updates here for Drop had to leave for personal reasons, and his replacement hasn't been posting new updates yet.
Last I knew (January) they still hadn't figured out how to make single-shot ABS blanks for an ergo kit in bulk; the yields were too low, with too many bad keys. And they were having trouble color-matching them when they experimented with making them in PBT instead.

Any update on the orders? It's about 1 month from a year since I placed the order. Original ship date was Aug '21. Any chance I'm actually getting my order this year?

I'd love to buy this set but the lack of accent kits for ortho make this a fairly dull set. It also seems pointless to buy knowing the ergo and blanks are still in limbo

Hey! I'm sure I'm not the only one waiting for an update on the blanks. It's a week shy of 3 months since the last update on these. Still waiting and hoping to get the keycaps soon so I can finish my stealth build. It's been a long bumpy ride since I placed the original order back in early November 2020...

Info from drop (prototypes) + assumption (delays due to the holiday).
Edit: I'm assuming March would be the earliest if everything looks good.

So it's now the end of April 2022 and we still haven't gotten an update on the blanks at all. Please give us some sort of information. I think people are going to have to start telling their friends to avoid Drop at all costs because this is absolutely unacceptable and disrespectful to your customers... The latest pinned update is from almost a year ago

I opened a support ticket about this. Support couldn't provide any update on the Ergodox kit.

They've let the base go out of stock and stay that way, whereas they've always restocked the other Susuwatari recolor sets. I wonder if they'll quietly kill this off by letting the remaining child kits run out, and then resurrect it in their new MT2 profile. It sounds like that uses a different blend of plastics, which might solve the problems they were having with their ABS MT3 blanks failing.

Could I get a black, row 2, `/~ key? That's all I need to make this set perfect.

My ortho kit arrived today. It looks good on my Levinson (essentially a split Planck) and the keys feel great. That said, i think this is my last rodeo with Drop. i'd forgive the lateness, but i cannot forgive the utter lack of communication about the ever moving delivery dates.

Does anyone have some pictures of how the tangerine accents look like? My order seems to be stuck in shipment hell, and I'm really curious how those turned out.

I really wish that the accent packs weren't so expensive. I would buy several of them if they were more like $25-30. But as it is, two sets of accent caps and I may as well just buy another full set of keycaps.
Here is what you do Drop, lower the price and add the accent cap sets as for sale through the black and white sets, the Susuwatari set. Sell way more of them offering color accents to the sets that sell more which are mostly black and white and another Dolch variant.
