This is an interest check for GMK Wāpuro (thank you u/lovetree for the suggestion!). I am picking up where I left off last October with this set I submitted for the Massdrop Design Contest. I’ve been pretty busy with other things, but I carved out some time to hone this set a little further. It is still a work in progress, but I think it’s ready for some feedback.
This set is based on a keyset found on Sony’s 1987 PJ-100 Word Processor. I loved this set from the first time I saw it and GMK Wāpuro is my best attempt at recreating it. With the advent of GMK Laser and Red Samurai, making this set a reality has become incredibly possible. Below are the images that inspired this replica set:


I had help from some great guys on Reddit, who translated all of the keys for me. You can find that post here if you’re interested

This set will be doubleshot using the molds from GMK Laser and Red Samurai, the green legends will be front printed using pad printing. I hope I can get the sublegends to be yellow, but we will see
Here are the current kit designs:






(Sorry u/RedSuns, I totally stole your kit graphics to make mine)
These kits are a work in progress, especially the novelties/add ons kit. I plan on refining them as I get comments back from you guys, and I think I’m going to go ahead and make an ErgoPro kit similar to GMK Laser because it was so popular. So, let me know what you think and how I can improve my kits.
