Frequent Asked Questions

How do I fill my keyboard?
Youll need a Core kit, and
it is essential to cover any layouts. For most keyboards,
such as Nemo,
Tokyo60, Anne Pro, Pok3r, Uniqey C70,
Leopold FC660M, Duck Wiper, Tada68, Percent Canøe,
Duck
Octagon, Drevo 84, Percent Skøg, Masterkeys Pro S, TX-CP,
Leopold FC980M, Cherry G80-1813,
Kira, RS96, or a Duck
Lightsaver, this is the only kit that youll need. There are
a couple exceptions:
- Ergodox users will just need the Ergodox kit
- GK64, Minorca, Sebright, and Planck users will need to add a 40s kit.
-
Split spacebar keyboards (Banana60, VE.A) should grab
either the spacebar kit or the 40s kit.
Quote Which keyboards can I cover with Micons?
You can cover the modifier keys of most 60% and 65% including Nemo, Tokyo60, Tada68, or even Uniqey C70.
Quote Is this keyset fully compatible with the Corsair Strafe, Fnatic Gear Rush, or Razers keyboards?
No. These keyboards have a non-standard bottom row with 6.50U spacebar.
Quote Is this keyset fully compatible with the Mistel Barocco 60%, Filco Minila, or Filco Minila Air?
Can you add a 3U & 4U spacebars to the spacebars kit?
No. These keyboards use 3.00U, 3.25U, or 4.00U spacebars and arent that common.
It would require GMK to make new molds to cover those three boards.
Quote Do the keys support backlighting?
No. These keycaps do not support backlighting as they are made out of two different opaque plastics.
However, you can get with them an awesome underglow effect.

Quote Why no ISO kit?
The base kit comes with Hiragana and Latin legends, and unless new molds are made, it would break the set’s aesthetic.
There are no plans to include a Nordic and German kit.
Quote Which vendor do you plan to use for Serikas Group Buy?
Massdrop. They have recently delivered well over 2000 Nautilus orders, shipping them on time, and with
marginal (to none) issues. On top of that, they are working hard to give better and more transparent
post-drop updates.
Quote How much will it cost?
Prices should be similar to previous GMK sets such as Nautilus, Yuri, or Laser.
Quote When will I be able to get this set?
It depends on you.
Quote Im concerned about the final colors, how will you ensure that theyll be the close to the renders?
GMK and I are taking extra steps to make sure that everything goes right, as we know that yellow is a
tricky color and getting the perfect colors will be super important for this set. This is why GMK and I have
been using a Pantone and RAL color chart to define which custom colors are going to be used. Samples are on my
way and well do as many takes as needed to get the perfect colors.
Quote Why is the 40s kit an add-on and not a part of the core?
A separate add-on kit allows me to get a better layout coverage and accent keys while keeping the core
kits price down.
Quote $[insert price] for ABS? No way Im paying for that.
There are many high-quality product made in ABS that people love such as LEGO, or GMK keycaps. GMK
makes thick, doubleshot keycaps (their legends are sharp and will never fade). If you havent tried these
keycaps before: they get through an excellent quality control, their legends are consistent, they are perfect
for long typing sessions, and they sound fantastic.
Quote Can you add the GMK Nautilus style ergodox keys with the doubleshot legends?
Despite of Nautilus hype and how great was having doubleshot legends on an ergodox, some people were
discouraged by the first tier price point and decided not to get one.
For Serika, Id prefer to keep it as it is for now.
Quote Are there any story behind the keycap color way and the novelties?
In August 2016, just after The Amazing Chocolatiers drop ended, I started working on two new sets. One of
those was Nautilus, which was finished first, and the other one was an unnamed set that later became Serika.
While working on Nautilus, I had something very clear: I wanted to work on a less flashy and more subtle
color way but without falling into the boring tag. I also wanted to make a set were yellow was the main
actor and not just an accent (like in Chocolatier or Nautilus). For the alphas, I had obviously go for
something lighter, so I opted for a white (with a tint of beige). And thats how the colorway was decided.
Fast forward to Novemeber 2017, just before Nautilus started shipping, I started working again on the set.
There were two unfinished issues: its name and the novelties. The name issue was solved quite fast.
Like many others on this community Im also interested in space exploration (Godspeed, and Yuri), so I
paid an homage to the Space Brothers manga and named the set after fictional astronaut Itou Serika.
As for the novelties, unlike previous sets, I wanted to keep them simple and more abstract, so I went for
something that I was already interested in: impossible geometric figures, such as the Penrose triangle.
Quote Could you split the keycaps in more kits?
No, GMK has a 150 minimum order quantity for any purchase order (250 if you use custom colors), and
their prices scale down quite well the more sets are sold. This is the reason why all GMK sets have a big
base kit that covers most layouts, as it makes things easier for everyone and minimizes the risk of not
having your keyboard layout covered.
Quote Who did the renders?
Me.
