Welcome to DSA Scrabble!
This might look familiar to you. In case you missed it in the past, back in 2018, I designed XDA Scrabble and released it alongside Drop, where word game and keyboard enthusiasts everywhere came together to make beautiful keebs.
I've wanted to do a re-run of Scrabble keycaps for a few years now, but with the pandemic, staff changes at both Drop and Hasbro, and general licensing struggles, it was not an easy process.
Enter Clackeys! Their team reached out to me asking about my designs in summer 2021, and my hopes were raised once again. They loved the previous version of Scrabble keycaps, and were wildly creative with ideas about packaging and artisans and extras. I was stoked, and they've been lovely to work with!
Okay, enough backstory, here's the nitty gritty:
Officially licensed Scrabble keycaps are back, in a DSA profile, with one large, beautiful kit, designed by yours truly! There's also desk mats, here!
Clackeys has been a pleasure to work with, and the quality assurance on the keycaps has been great to see (these are produced by IFK and are dyesub, and went through multiple rounds of testing). The base kit should cover most boards you'll want to use (including ortho), the legends are crisp, and the colors are vibrant! All of the images you see in the product pages are actual photos, not renders.
The sooner we accept that the days that Drop offered compatibility with separate alpha and mod kits are long gone, the less annoyed we get. It's indeed about min-maxing profits and if you aren't a general ANSI 60/TKL/full size board user, you're not going to find compatibility anymore. Let alone any keyboard layout not sold by Drop. And there's not even a thought for Colevrak kits, even though that could have been solved by adding just four homing kits.
Hell, they didn't even bother to support Planck or Preonic this time.
Any GB that runs without a public IC will thread this same path.
I don't think I've bought a keycap set from Drop since MT3 Godspeed R1. XDA Canvas is running again, but I can see some of the same shortcuts taken there.
Man thats depressing, I was waiting for this to come back for so long and then just realized this was from 3 weeks ago and i never got a notification.
Will there be any extra's for sale after the others ship out? Or are they just going to be found on ebay and mech market for 300% markup?
I really wish there was a planck / ortholinear kit of this :( As it stands, the base kit doesn't really work too well with ortho keyboards.
I've tried to see what could be done with a base kit + num kit combo, and here's what I came up with (yellow OLKB planck; the picture looks very hazy because I took some shortcuts tracing the image and re-arranging the keys, but it was enough to give me a general idea. Bottom left column is "ins", "esc (pink)", "word" and "play", bottom right column is: "del", "(pink star)", "word", "play" ).
