just to be clear. the quote for the set has already been requested. The set won't change at this stage.

we are discussing a possible Bonus Pack that will be sold on PMK.

So far it will have:
- 1 ISO Enter red
- 1 ISO Enter brown
- ...

Ok, I understand... Sorry!

One thing is not clear to me (poor rookie...): why you choosed ABS double shot with SP instead PBT double shot with Vortex, like IvanIvanovich did in the past? This set is lovely but I don't know if I must trust Signature Plastic (I read a lot of bad things about their quality control) and also that their ABS is very soft...

unfortunately SA+PBT is a no-no

DUCKS! and crunchbangs and interrobangs!! I also really like the Atari logo as well fwiw. Maybe an ancient windows logo (ik this colorway predates windows by a loing shot) or the 'sliced' Apple logo from way back when.

Why is that?
Technically not feasible or just a pain to use? Or too expensive...

Vim, git (tree), python, arch linux.

they can only pad-print SA in PBT, and anyway, it doesn't seem they like to work with it in general.

coming really soon!

Nice to see a collaboration with the CTRL[ALT] guys, they're good people.

Can't wait!

Haha, that's awesome!

Now that's a pretty banner!

The existing duck legend tooling is for 1.25 units in row 3 - we'd be looking at a legend fee for any other key row and size.
Or they could just be in row 3 - I could use at least five pairs of these in WFK on YL to Dirge up a Unitek K-155. Or maybe I should get some sleep.

I'm happy for either of the crunchbang legends (gorton-ish row 3 or superbold row 1) to be used in connection with this. The existing interrobang is up to 7bit, while the redesigned one is a while away in 5a.

I dunno if it's appropriate for SA Retro, but fwiw I loved the idea of the Windows 1.0 logo in Granite!

I'd go bananas for a rainbow apple key.

Edit:

B-A-N-A-N-A-S

Ok so far we have:

- ISO Return(s)
- Nuka Cola (requested on GH, we have the tooling)
- Some kind of Win key (win 10 or retro?)

Another very cool option would be a side printed alpha... I'll try to ask a quote.

Now that is cool. Totally reminds me of some of the printed advertising and packaging that brought all sorts of computer fantasy to my young mind back in the day....

Ooh... do you mean putting the primary legends on the side, or adding the CBM graphics characters as well?
The second option would be incredible! If you did that, do you think you could get the duck in somewhere too?

yes, doubleshot + PETSCII side print

Amiga logo

Space Invader

matt3o random question, but did you design your robot avatar?

yes but it is based on a real toy.

Love that promo graphic. Wished there was a GB for caps with those legends too!

it's live!

I must have missed this stuff before, so sorry if this was already answered. Are these shipping from the USA? So I can expect correct customs declarations and all that jazz? I'm almost considering dropping R5a for this... don't tell 7bit.

DAMN :D

Question : ETA for the shipping? I'm not asking because I want it fast :ugeek: I'm back home only around the 3rd of june ;)

EDIT: dumb question. I'm tired. I saw that the GB is running for 20 days. Perfect. ;)

...hmm, once again difficult for me. I would prefer "Retro Burgundy" but this grey R1 look fabulous. Should I really buy both sets?
And as an ISO user I miss the burgundy JRet. Don't like this lime so much.

ctrlalt is from UK with US proxy. IF they get orders from Europe like crazy they will ship from UK, if the order count is low and the GB not very successful everything will originate from the US. I'm not sure what is the value they declare. I will ask.

20 days to order + 1 month for production.

I'm hoping to add a bonus pack with additional ISO enters.

Thanks matt3o! If they're coming from the UK, I'd be able to get the ISO and maybe Pro Mods kit, but not if they're from the USA.

unfortunately the only way to make it happen is to place more orders from EU...

My order from the EU is in

Ok, lets order more from EU. I´m in
