"Now featuring an improved design that better matches the OEM Topre space bar, this six-unit space bar is the result of months of research and development—plus some advice from keyboard expert Matt3o. "
Sure massdrop, sure you did anything whatsoever other than adding a link on your site.
I have more than I could possibly need, but I'll grab a few anyway. Thanks matt3o.

nah they are the same.face wrote: ↑Does it only look like it, or is it rather different to the original key color and surface? If you scroll to the topic "Compatibility" you see that it is darker and shinier than the other keys.

Really like the new system of being able to choose your colours! Also under $20 so theoretically no custom charges, although considering the exchange rate...

Thanks matt3o, nice to see this drop back again..wil grab a blue and black one...already have a red one..
is it me or has the price gone up since last we saw this drop??
btw MSRP of $35 that's $17,50 per spacebar is just nuts hahaha... Looking around at single Topre keycaps the price is around $12. So this drop is just right at $12,50 a pop..and hoping customs doesn't crew us EU people ..Because Massdrop still doesn't heave a EU warehouse ...

Last time it cost me $28.50 plus $6.70 for delivery, that's 28.50/4 = $7.125.
This time it cost me $15 plus $5 for delivery, that's 15/2 = $7.50.
So yeah slightly more expensive but you get to choose colours and they might sneak under the customs allowance for the UK anyway (I hope).

Summer of spacebars!
I was not expecting them back this soon. The orange one will add some pop to my 660C. Thanks matt3o!

Very glad to see this. It is good that MD finally decided to offer a Drop for the spacebars only without bundling them with an expensive keyboard. I've ordered some dark gray spacebars.

it's still slightly rougher than the original ABS, but smoother than the previous batch (we are talking about the top surface).adhoc wrote: ↑matt3o, what does "refined texture much closer to the original" mean? Does it mean it's much smoother like ABS? Because if it's not PBT grainy I don't really want them tbh.

As always, we fail to let matt3o know how much he means to us when it comes to providing quality PBT space bars.matt3o wrote: ↑it's still slightly rougher than the original ABS, but smoother than the previous batch (we are talking about the top surface).adhoc wrote: ↑matt3o, what does "refined texture much closer to the original" mean?
