Been waiting so long for this set especially since I have the blue Godspeed mat. This will look so dope on my incoming Kira. Love the glow in the dark as well. Will have to get the entire set lol
Introducing the Minuteman, 1st full glow in dark keycap set ever made. The kit is going to be available in PBT material dyesublimated legends and unlike the rest of Godspeed MT3 kits it will be made in the United States with DSA material.
It features two new novelties, the alien dude and his flying saucer.
Hope you are excited!
In order to offer this kit in MT3 profile I'd have pull some impossible magic, by creating R5 2.25u and R5 2.275u molds out of thin air because they don't currently exist. This would be needed because in order to maximize versatility of this kit all rows must be equal so nearly all mechanical keyboard layouts that are covered perfectly. I'm focusing on getting R0 1.5u molds done for the Vortex Race users instead.
On top of that, offering a DSA profiled kit will open doors for people who aren't very excited about MT3 profile, they will have this low profile option available and in the end I am covering all fronts of interest. The shape of DSA keycaps paired with the Pulse CTRL High Pro keyboard UFO effect also reminded me of the flying saucers a lot, so I pursued the aesthetic. The glow is awesome in person, this kit is gonna be very very special in the end.
There were many others detail involved as well such as manufacturing capabilities, lead times, rate of success and of course, final quality of the keycaps. I considered all factors and decided for what you see.
Just a little insight of behind the scenes for you, hope you are excited and thanks for checking the project!
Thanks for the kind words and the concern. For what it's worth, I've been passing on other group buys and saving since you first revealed this set. Not having a clue how many kits I would want to end up with I safely set aside some funding for this group buy. Nothing to worry about here.
That makes me more relieved and honored that you actually skipped others, well, thanks a lot for the interest! Here's hoping the keycaps will exceed your expectations!
I think there are 2 more to reveal and 2 remaining weeks for November. Hope this will drop in December.
All alphas and mods kits are sick. Can't choose what to get LOL
For myself personally - GET them ALL.
This is a formidable design worthy of acquiring as soon as possible. Any keyboard they choose to reside on, shall indeed lift the worth of that humble device without question.
This should be the last GREAT key-set to get for this year.
Hi MiTo! Two quick questions:
Is it possible to get a blue ISO enter key for the respective kits? Also, is the font different from what's being used on dev/tty? Just wondering if mixing and matching sets is possible.
Will still for sure be picking up some kits on this one regardless of ISO cap colors. Can't miss Godspeed in an awesome profile like MT3. Thanks for all your hardwork! :)
I'm thrilled to see a Colevrak kit that supports the Workman layout! Thank you!!
In the renders, the key that says "Godspeed" in katakana has an errant double-quote in front, I think.
It should be
ゴッドスピード
not
"ゴッドスピード
Colored WASD/IHJKL options?
I really like having the the alphas I use as arrows stand out a bit. For games, that means WASD. On the Ultimate Hacking Keyboard that means IJKL. For many oldschool vi fans that means HJKL. Maybe an addon with all of WASDIHJKL in all 3 colors (yellow, blue, red)?
I'm trying to figure out how to get these addons to add up to something that would work well for the Ultimate Hacking Keyboard. https://ultimatehackingkeyboard.com/layout-and-keycaps
Looks like the key issue is no good matches for the rightmost keys: 2.25U shifts, 1.75U enter, 1.75U backspace.
Alphas + Apollo Mods + Exotic +175u Spacebars will have you covered. You have everything but the BACKSPACE and 2.25u CONTROL which I will add in the next update! Stay tuned for next Wednesday's posts!
