Its definitely a toss, I looked at it like this, buying this kit after the drop ends is a mechmarket problem and getting the kit rerun at the next prevailing price change and MOQ quantity makes it that much worse for a potential reun. But yeah food on the table first my friends, don't ever put yourself in a position you have to get out of either. Best of luck and welcome to the drop!

JediNew drop points loaded we passed 400 so its anyone's call. For those 423 that joined your IN would net back $4,230 or basically $5,000 back to the 500 people who lock in. No pressure! But no seriously this is pretty incredible for this kit to have this many supporters considering its a pretty full kit. So thank you for jumping in!

JediIt would be realistic to presume that this kit would not be re-run correct? Because of it being a custom project or does that not make a difference?

seoulfoodzIt is a custom project and that sometimes makes a difference and in the case of some of the hottest designs (like jukebox, pulse, danger zone, troubled minds (run elsewhere by Kono store), carbon, nautilus (in the future) and red samurai) it might see a comeback but it’s anyones guess. I think as the community grows and keycap manufacturers expand capacity there may very well be more runs but no one can see if and when that would happen. No I do not believe that just because it’s a custom color way that it would stop drop or Mito from running it again in the future.

seoulfoodzMito has said upstream that there are no plans to ever rerun this GB (or the previous GMK Laser one). So this is likely our only chance to get in on it at the original market price, though you can sometimes find people selling later on places like /r/MechMarket (likely at a pretty steep markup—GMK Laser kits get snatched up fast, even when priced at twice or more what they cost).

eponymousThanks for the update! Yeah there's a bunch of posts and I haven't checked but yeah I would definitely agree that at this time, at this price, at this MOQ, the time is now or never.

seoulfoodzI don't think we can really say one way or the other. I know some designers have re-run sets they said would never be re-run. But even in the most optimistic scenario it would be another 2-3 years or so before you would be able to get your hands on caps from a hypothetical rerun (you have to figure at least a couple of years between drops, and 6 months or more until the caps actually ship). If you like a set that's available now, I don't think it makes a lot of sense to wait, finances permitting.
