the key-caps came in a different shade of grey; it is not the same as shown. Very disappointed because of it.

"your remark is not appreciated" boohoo. Maybe you need to adjust your monitor settings then. They are in your picture exactly as I'd expect them to look.

LeekSoupWouldn't posting them to the same site achieve the same colour one would see? If so maybe @LeekSoup you would want to get your eyes checked instead.

Don't forget about the Windows logo, so now you're looking at 7 colors. SEVEN! Now how much would you pay?! But wait, there's more....

$36.99 for 104 keys is a nice price vs. $85.00 for 130 keys if you only need "standard" layout. https://originative.co/products/modern-beige Just wish there would be more color options given!
But how am i supposed to resist :)

Just got mine today, super happy with them! They have a fine, sort of silky texture but texture none the less, are super thick, and the legends are nice and sharp. 10/10. I just wish they came with mods and a short shift for the Tada68 I have coming in December ;)

XercesThey look pretty white compared to the images that Massdrop included. I expected it to be darker.

https://www.amazon.com/YMDK-Dye-Subbed-Japanese-Alphabet-Mechanical/dp/B07263K83Q/ Found this same keyset on amazon. It is cheaper if you include shipping. Pretty sure you'll get it faster too (ship from China).

It is the same keyset as what Massdrop had offered. I own an NPKC keyset(laser etched) so I know what you mean by rough texture. But, they also recently offer smooth texture PBT that are blanks and dyesub that can be found on Amazon by the vendor YMDK (reputable vendor from taobao) and KBDFANS.CN
For reference, you can check out kbdfans.cn for this same key-set stating that it is OEM by NPKC. Whether or not it is NPKC it still doesn't change the fact that it is the same keyset being offered on Massdrop. Kbdfans being the most expensive at 51.90 + free shipping, Massdrop $37.99 + shipping and maybe tax too (forgot price, drop ended lol), and Amazon being the cheapest for me at 39.90 + free shipping. I'm not saying that you shouldn't join the drop or anything. I'm just giving more options to those who are interested and want to pay less and very lightly to get it much earlier than Massdrop.
And If i'm not mistaken gateron PBT are allegedly EnjoyPBT (epbt doing their dye sub). From my experience, they are quite smooth feeling. It is nowhere nearly as rough as the NPKC laser etched PBT keysets.
Note: Like most US buyers, I do not use taobao and especially not aliexpress (terrible when it comes to buyers protection IMO).

Now that this post exists, that backspace key kinda bugs me. The photos on the listing shows backspace as one word whereas the one I received is split like the kit on Amazon (Back Space). Feeling a bit bummed about that :/

Hello fellow keyboard komrades,
I have recieved the keys and thank you so much for the early and fast shipping! (^ ͜ ^ ) They feel ~heavenly~ on my cherry clear Pok3r, however, it seems as though the 'T' key was printed with a different profile than the rest of the Q row. I have tried to compare it to the other profiles but it seems different from the rest of them even. I have attached pictures of the comparison of the T key to the Y key (right) and a G key (left).
I would really appreciate if I could have this corrected, I really like the keyset but the profile difference throws off the aesthetic

Looks like hiragana ろ is missing. Should be the key next to right Shift.

emojiI think this is because the above picture is the ISO layout. I think the hiragana gets pushed up to the '~' key.

RandelionnThe above picture is the JIS layout—the layout used in Japan.
Good point about the tilde key, you're right. I missed that.
