Update 01/10/20
Realized I haven’t been keeping this main post updated. Here’s a current mockup of the set

Here’s a sample I’ve received:

And here’s a picture I’ve received of the reverse sub accents

Still working out details of kit pricing before moving to date planning.

Update 9/13/18
Some good news, I’ve already heard back from Wei about the MOQ and pricing of the kits. MOQ for both Base and Intl kit will be 100 units each. Pricing I’m not going to say quite yet since it’s subject to change if any modifications are made to the kit contents, but I will say that the original numbers I gave for the set here when it wasn’t ePBT yet are closer than I would have expected them to be, so that’s good news. I’ll be looking at feedback from this and the KT thread while I’m waiting for samples and see what needs to be adjusted before moving on. I’m excited that this is finally moving off the ground now that I finally went to Wei about it, Wei for MVP.
Update 5/22/18
It’s been basically forever since there’s been an update to this. Everglide was supposed to be transitioning buildings in March and were supposed to be getting back to me in early April. As the lack of updates shows, that didn’t happen. I do however have some good news. After seeing ePBT 9009 recently it has come to my attention that ePBT has greatly improved their available layout compatibility, enough so that I would be willing to run this set through them. So that’s what I’ve decided to do. Nothing is absolutely in stone yet, but I’ve been in contact with them concerning making the set and so far it looks good. Given their history of high quality sets, I’m optimistic about the future of this set under them.
IC form is here https://goo.gl/forms/RuByoUKLt5wCNJR32
Recently came across what appears to be a decent source of custom dyesub sets, so figured the first test should be a good design. Seeing as GMK Royal Alpha has to favor the green mods, I figured the white mods would be a suitable design. Looks like I should be able to get roughly the same compatibility as the GMK mockup below

There’s a poll in the IC form for whether I should try to match GMK’s 3K off-white or get closer to the OG’s off-white color.
Information that’s in the IC form but I’ll include here just to grab attention:

  • MOQ of 50 with price drops at 100 and 200 units
  • Estimated price of $75 before shipping
  • 4 weeks production time with possible extension past 50 units
    Depending on interest I can have a sample on hand within the next few weeks in order to gauge quality.
