Attention, All You Beautiful People, Spring of 2020 is
Quickly Approaching!
- The time of HOT, HUMID, and VIBRANT Sunny days. And with that heavy heat, comes the foods that never taste as sweet as they do in these coming months.
-
Second, only to the blessing that is watermelon, is the
sweet, frosty, and creamy delight known as
[Generic Brand] Frozen Yogurt. The soft,
subtle, and satisfying frozen dairy treat.
Can you feel the rush of cool air as you enter the shop?
Can you taste the bright, sweet and tangy toppings?
Can you feel the wallet-shearing-pain of heading to the cashier to weigh your 4.8kg Cup of Perfection that you spent 36 minutes carefully piling as many crushed Kit-Kats onto as possible?
It’s enough to make your sweet tooth tingle right now…

Im very happy overall as I was slightly worried about the green (3395) being a bit too washed out against the base L9 color. Looks to be a lot more contrasted in person

Renders:
**/Note*: Please remember that renders are to help us all get a better sense of the sets real-world look. And just like in real life, differences in light, environment, angles, and temperatures all play into how a set actually is perceived (Whether through a lens or through our own eyes). Please take all renders with that open perception. Further clarification will come if samples are obtainable and more diversity in renders is presented.

Okay, so I know that ePBT was an extremely popular
request when I initially launched the IC for GMK Fro.Yo.
After
contacting KBDFans for inquiry on the possibility of ePBT
manufacturing Fro.Yo, things looked like they could go that
direction!
I received MOQ /# from Wei and we
discussed the colors and Set Arrangements. But the main
thing that kept us from going ePBT was there lack of Molds
for the 40s Kit I have.
Extended 2048 had the similar
issue of not being able to manufacture the initial 40s Kit
Biip had arranged simply because of there lack of tooling to
do so.
Specifically, they do not have molds for Row 3:
1.25u And 1.5u Keys.
Some may say this is a small
detail but as an avid 40s user, I didnt want to do this Kit
Halfway.
I asked Wei what kind of order quantities we
would have to have to fund those 2 new key molds for ePBT,
in hopes that it could at least be a structured
possibility.
But after that inquiry Wei has gone silent
on me and I dont think they are interested in manufacturing
the set any longer.
Thats just the way it goes
sometimes.
Maybe one day my friends!
- Integrate ISO/UK Kit - Done
- Awaiting PANTONE Color Chip Samples for evaluation and finalization Done
-
Find A Vendor Done
NovelKeys Is pretty booked up for the near foreseeable future, I may just end up running the GB through my own site - King-Keys.xyz.
If we go the route of ePBT, then of course KBDFans.cn will be our Vendor.
