Hi all, just wanted to drop my thoughts on these caps. First of all excuse the language if that offends anyone: WHY THE FUCK AREN'T THOSE KEYCAPS STANDARD ON ALL KEYBOARDS?! They look awesome as all fuck!! Truthfully though they take a time to get used to. It doesn't come natural after typing on square caps for 15 years... But give them a chance - they really do look cool. Great packaging! Cons: these caps in particular have a chrome painted plastic ring as you can see on the photos and let me start by saying, again, it's badass! That said on some of the caps they do seem to move. I haven't had any one of them falling off but bare that in mind. Also, depending on your keyboard (I'm using a CM Storm Ultimate) they may feel a bit bigger than they should. Also the space bar felt a bit out of place with a shorter travel time than the original one. Last drawback is that some of the caps feel a little bit off in terms of their height due to manufacturing tolerances. The height discrepancy is maybe lower then 1-2/10 of a millimeter but it is there on my set. Conclusion - Don't be fooled - these are great. They are NOT perfect but they look awesome, feel like a typewriter and on my cherry browns fit perfectly. Maybe a bit expensive for what they are but we don't live in a perfect world. Certainly don't have the bragging rights of getting a 120$ Datamancer keyset which are hand made blah blah blah but it's the next best thing - luxury item with good enough cost that is not practical for most (unless this is your first computer keyboard and you've come from a real typewriter and you are 80 years old, in which case HI GRANDMA!) but looks cool as all fuck! Hope that helps, cheers!

MasterYocoThe one thing is if they came on all boards they wouldn't be special

MasterYocoAppreciate your thoughts, not offended as such by the language. I guess in your mind, you had to use those words to get the point across.
