“I am judge, jury and executioner. So I call myself… Godspeed.”
Introducing the Godspeed75 Designed by fropsie & BlindAssassin111
Inspired by the antihero speedster Godspeed, the Godspeed75 is a 75% top mount keyboard featuring a USB-C daughterboard and USB-A hub.
The minimal design of the board is based off of the sleek and simple look of the golden villain.

Updates
1/10/2020
After looking through many responses, as well as taking in votes from the IC form, some big changes have been made to the board itself, as well as what is offered for it.

  • The Death of Speed colorway (Black/Gold) has been removed, as <10% of the votes were for that color way, the best choice that could be made is to remove it in order to assist those who are indecisive, like myself.

  • The design of the board itself has been modified in order to give the board more of a unique shape and appearance, while maintaining the top of the case. All other features will be kept the same, such as the USB-C and USB pass through daughterboard, as well as the 0.75u blockers. I have no plans to change the formfactor of the board to 65 (as many have requested) and no other changes will be made to the design of the board nor the features offered.

  • Godspeed edition*
    Themed after the antihero’s iconic Gold and White suit, it only makes sense to feature the same colors on the keyboard inspired by him.

  • Zoom edition*
    Based on the corrupt speedster Zoom, this edition takes the sleek black of the suit with use of a PVD Blue accent to match that of his synthesized speed.

  • Velocity edition*
    In order to incorporate the general theme of these fallen speedsters thirst for more speed, it only seemed appropriate to make a variant of the board named velocity, represented by clear polycarbonate and nickel accents.
