Once these are done I’ll offer these up on my shop if they come out well.

Holy heck… Imma have to buy a 5th FC660c? Need to see if I can find a 30g variant now

Does such a model exist? Or is this just a nod to the recent “weird 30g FC980Cs on MK.com?!” discovery 
What weird one’s? Are you talking about the ones that look kind of beige?
I’ve not seen a 30g variant of any topre board on mk before these recent 980s. Maybe someone doing a dome swap on one would sell their 30g domes. It is a nice variation on the topre feel.

Pretty sure I’ve got 30gs. Don’t want em. I’m waiting for some more BKE redux domes to arrive and can send you mine after that.

Is there any possibility in the world that you will offer Heavy grail in copper finishes?
I know in the past when you had less units ran there were options for one off/commission colors, if you didn’t plan this material for HHKB could we maybe pay extra to commission it?

Bespoke is always an option, even for discontinued designs, but it’s generally stupid expensive (like, easily 3x retail or more) due to the logistics of one-off manufacturing, so I always encourage people to choose among the options that I’m offering at part of a group buy. I put a lot of thought into selecting finishes that I know will be likely to give good cosmetic results and that can be done at some reasonable scale to bring the cost down by pooling things into batches.

Just get it powder coated or cerecoated your self after it arrives.
Copper would look pretty killer though

Yes, this is always a good option. I can always do a “bespoke” housing without a finish on it at no additional cost if you order it as part of the GB. The high cost is for alternate materials or producing designs after they’re not in a GB batch, because the machine shop always considers those totally separate ‘prototype’ jobs. Same applies to color lot fees for powder coat.

Do we have an ETA for when the group buy will run yet? I’ve been unreasonably hype for this since it was announced.

Do we know if there will be the Polycarbonate plate option yet?

Wow, that yellowed housing is pretty rad as is. Got my EC Extended 2048 as well. Nice color and all but I wish ePBT did Topre cause keycaps texture is not the best for my taste.

There is a chance, Norbauer’s survey (link at the very top) mention the “Polycarbonate resin” option for some additional $$. So we might be lucky
