I was really worried that this set would not turn out as expected. It looks exactly like the Overview images so I am very happy and relieved. Why did I ever doubt the eye of Zambumon?! Ridiculous. I think this is a gorgeous green that is not seen in any other sets at the moment that I am aware of, so I feel it is super unique and will look amazing on some of my woodsy and aquatic theme set ups. I am just gutted that I did not get the Extension kit because I have a board that this would look stunning on but I need the extensions to make it work.
everyone complaining about the renders about the key caps but I’ll keep it 5000 with everyone these mofwuckaz is clean On my tofu. It shipped within 2 days the quality of them are great and the feel when typing on these are just like what Future said “Sensational” I know these are I inspired by Chthulu but to me how I see them for the base set at least coming from Hawaii these are like the colors of a peacock 🦚🦚🦚 so glad I picked these up before they sold out cause I got super lucky with these. I don’t care what anyone says about them I love them... and the you the one who is reading this right now... I love you. Keep your heads up kings
Not quite what I expected, but much better than I feared
This is a tricky set to review. No, it doesn't look like the renders on Drop's site. The greens have more blue in them than I would have expected. But it's also worth mentioning that there is something about these colors that seem to make it very difficult to photograph accurately. Every time I tried to take a photo (even with a DSLR that normally seems relatively color accurate) the modifiers would look straight-up blue. I had to manually color correct the image here to try and get it close to what I'm seeing in person, but of course I can't know how it will look to you due to differences in people's monitors, etc., so take them with a grain of salt.

This issue almost made me sell/return my set before I even opened it, but I'm glad I did decide to try it out. It looks quite good, even if it is different from the renders, and I think it is evocative of the deep sea in the same way that the original was trying to accomplish. I would recommend this set to others, but it's difficult because of how hard it apparently is to take accurate photos of it. (The Enter key in the photo is the metal RAMA artisan, which I do not recommend due to its price and not really being superior to the normal novelty Enter key.)
(update) DROP did accept return on this item, but they told me if I want to return the item, I have to pay my own return shipping fee. I believe this is kind of ridiculous to most of us(some members seems like the altered color very much), at least DROP is trying to make this right, but Zambumon is hiding since day one...
I can't believe Zambumon will approve this color, I'll let the picture do the talking...
I want my money back..
The modifier's color samples were very different from renders.
When the actual keycaps was delivered to Zambumon and the photo was uploaded to Zambumon's IG, I said the modifier's color was strange(too cyan), but he repeatedly showed the posts of the color samples.
I still don't know why Zambumon approved these color samples.
I paid by looking at renders on this page, not the color samples.
Hey!
This picture was taken using a flash in the dark.
You might say, "This is different with actual keycaps."
In fact, what I expected when I saw Zambumon's IG photo was: That would be different from actual keycaps...
The result is, you were right, I was completely wrong.
P.S. Please refer to someone else's picture other than mine. *But they are still garbage
The worst case of render vs. delivered product I have ever seen.
How did Zam approve this? Quite frankly, this set looks NOTHING like the renders. There is not a shade of blue in the renders, but the delivered product is far more blue than green. Absolutely appalled.
Just echoing this here...the colorway is nothing like the renders...like...nothing.Renders vs actual product - the alphas needed to be way more of a muted/pastel color, and the mods needed more tint - on top of that, this set turned out with way more blue in it than it did the rendered greens. I'm really disappointed because I was REALLY excited about this set because I'm all about that deep ocean shit...but when I opened the box, there's really not much of a distinction between the alphas and the mods at all...they just kinda blend together. I'll be returning :(
The colorway got sploffed. There was also a 1u novelty that had bleed, frustrating, but a minor inconvenience. Do not buy if you are expecting to receive the renders. They don't exist.
