If you DO do this set, please take the time to correct the plague that has been the continued appearance of Ç (U+00C7 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER C WITH CEDILLA ) on the W keycap instead of the proper ς (U+03C2 GREEK SMALL LETTER FINAL SIGMA ).

Torx has indeed a very nice drive geometry and the M2.5mm would be T8, so not too small, but definitely more expensive (both screws and driver)

Edit: fohat makes a very fair point. More seasoned owners can very easily change the screws.

Aesthetically allen (hex) is nicer imo, but a countersunk M2.5 will need a 1.5mm allen key which is a bit too fiddly and sensitive to torque (M2.5 needs 1.5mm key and m3 needs 2mm). I vote Philips at least for the m2.5.

That looks awful....I'd grab one in dark grey! Any info on the pricing yet?
And a small worry: The edges seem sharp, and anodising is not very durable in such geometries. Did you get the opportunity to do any testing in that regard?

M3 has a thread pitch of .5mm and considering that the first/second threads are usually not fully formed, I'd be surprised if you managed to grab more than half a thread there. And even before that, how are you going to cut the threads on the plate? Happy New Year!!! Moment of clarity: I just realis...
