-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FAQ:

Will this work on my keyboard?

R: If your keyboard features MX mount, most likely yes.

What are the keycap sizes?

R: Refer to the images and descriptions on this page.

Packaging?

R: All kits made by Signature Plastics are divided into zip lock bags.

What's DCS?

R: A keycap set profile manufactured by Signature Plastics (Comptec Inc.) in Custer, WA (known for the original SA, DSA keycaps). The DCS style of keycaps was frequently used on 80s/90s computing systems distributed for the USA/Canada/France markets and are frequently found in Wyse terminals, for example.

Why these specs?

R: I appreciate sleeper PC modding, the soft colors I selected and the ABS/2shot material. Regarding comfort, the DCS profile is one of the best cylindrical sculpted profiles that exist, especially when combined with smooth switches. Thanks to the reduced thickness of the keycaps, the DCS profile is believed to highlight the feel of whatever switches are in use, unlike thicker options that end up "dampening" the feel of the switches a little.

Materials, legends?

R: The Sleeper project is made with ABS plastic (1.1 mm thick) and will feature the exact legends and sculpt seen on the render below.

Do these ever ship or does the shipping date just keep advancing ad infinitum?

Any ideas which 2.25u and 2.75u spacebars would match this set? The included ones are concave and quite uncomfortable, I'd rather get convex ones

Sleepy ... Y...A...W...N... another colorway, another keycap without shine through ... why does drop bother selling keyboards with backlighting if they're not going to sell any nice shinethrough keycaps?

riw777Most keycap enthusiast don't like shine through. And big manufacturers like SP, GMK, ePBT, etc. don't do shine through

erickongSo we're stuck with the oxymoron of led lit keyboards with no shine through ... and no ability to work in lower light environments with a high quality keycap set ... I'm guessing there's enough of a market for one or two quality sets, at any rate ... Isn't this community supposed to be about doing things you can't get done other places? Why is it drop has become a large "me too" place, with nothing interesting, different, etc.? Seriously -- all we can do is different colorways?

Wait, i thought the mech keyboard community looked down on thin abs caps. Now we're paying premium prices for them? SMH

extantpedantMany people prefer thin keycaps especially for tactile/clicky switches as you can feel the feedback a little more pronounced. The "premium price" is for not having to wait 12 months for the keycaps to ship, this is an in stock item that ships within 24-48h and not a cheap group buy in which you can get kits for $90 at risky MOQ. Don't mistake your own perspective with it being the absolute and only one.

Oh my God these are perfect... oh wait they are ABS? Another incredible set ruined. At least I am 120 dollars richer for it.

@Kevin I want to buy the blue desktop mat, but actually only found out about it while browsing Mito's Instagram. I think it's a bad idea to list it as part of this listing because then it just slips away from potential buyers.

Hey all, I have two sets of the spacebar extras if anyone is interested. Ordered an extra one on accident and then decided I didn't want to use them after all. Shoot me an email at ericimo @ hey . com if you want one.
