Maybe I should just finally sell you my WHOLE Round 5 collection. It's huge, probably got everything you need and then some. I’m not interested in splitting it though, if I’m out, I’m out.

The box it came in (and is still stored in) is literally the size of a microwave. :lol:

Yeah, I want to sell it all in one go, though. Not interested in splitting it up piecemeal.

The caps are out of storage and strewn all over my desk. There are many kilos of them! I'll need to spend some hours arranging them into kits. Should have time at home for it this week. Here's just a preliminary peek:

Wow, nice collection. Thank you very much for the update. Saw blue, gray, black, red...no violet? :D

I don't have much violet. 7bit added that after I was done with my main order. It's a long time ago, though, so laying out the caps properly is the only way to really know what I've got. :P

Okay, starting with the Round 5 (Signature Plastics colour code: RAS) reds:

That's the whole lot of them. Lots and lots of modifiers to choose from, arrow keys in different rows and legends, deep dished and regular F and J, a whole bunch of extra function keys, lots of choice for Escape, and a couple of spacebars: 6.25u and 5.0u.

The following pics are just a couple of different angles to see the row profiles.

The bag at the top is a whole bunch of red blanks: row 3 single unit. I have similar sets in all the original Round 5 colours: red, black, white and grey.

This is one of the easier colours. I went nuts with these! :lol:

The *only* violet key I've found here is a 6.25 unit spacebar, by the way. I don't think there's any other caps that colour in my collection.

Thanks for the pic of red color. Noted. Waiting for next color :D
By the way, no numpad kits?

Not in red, certainly. Don't remember ordering a numpad in any colour, to be sure. If that's a dealbreaker I'll just clear my desk. It's dominated by caps! :lol:

These are actually a combination of my Round 4 SPH set which I then topped up with Round 5, once 7bit added blue to the original Honeywell colourway. That's why I don't have a full blue function row, which alternates with grey in Round 4 SPH. Certainly wound up with a lot of grab bag extras though, 7 Bit Mode style.

The hashbangs and ducks are of course from Facet's limited run of Honey Sphericals Extras.

Now, this is where Round 4 SPH comes in. As you may recall, Round 4 Space Cadet has a paler shade of grey than Honeywell-matched Round 5. These are the two side by side.

My grey numerics—so I could use them as an alternative 2-tone numpad with my numpad blacks—are Round 5 grey. The keys to the right of them are Round 4 SPH, along with my whole set of alphas. These go with the blue modifiers I posted earlier and that bright red (SPH) Escape on the first pic of this post.

I also have a set of French leftovers for Round 4 SPH: the rest are on my OneHand which I forgot to rummage out and strip.

And that's it! Well, besides for the grey 2.25 unit ANSI left shift… where did that go?… it must be around here somewhere… :P

It will be hard to let these go, they are so pretty and mad, but I've just been keeping them in their box so they really should go to a good home.

Thanks a lot for all images. The black color really nice with the retro keyboard ! Interested in all your kits, if you want to let them go all, happy to discuss further :)
