I ordered a set from central Germany, paid only a few Euros for shipping, I’ve been very happy with shipping costs.
Love the look of this set <3

The 4 key 40s do cover the essentials, however there isn't a 6u or 3u spacebar in this kit, and i personally do not enjoy mixing keycap sets haha

Does the 4 key 40s not cover it?

This looks amazing! I'm in my mid twenties but still a lover of all things Pooh! Unfortunately my poor 40% kb has no compatibility with this :( great work!

That's some tasty looking dye sub. The colour bleed water colour effect is spot on.

From my experience with several Keyreative sets that I've had, the clarity of their dyesub and reverse dyesub edges between legend and base colour of keycap has been really good compared to some of the other PBT dyesub manufacturers. The biggest gripes I've heard with Keyreative is their super long manufacturing times (they're still clearing a backlog of GB orders), and alignment of legends (which has gradually improved given designer's demands/concerns... (although it is a question if this is sustained over a mass order and their QC). In fact, they've shifted some of their sets in production from dyesub to PBT doubleshot to assist with that issue.

All sizes, kit has a large compatibility, but please do check some layouts if board against the kit. I know some budget boards have a 1u shift that the kit doesn't have

4-5minths is the current estimate

Cheers for the reply. I’ll consider a macro pad now.
I’m tossing up what to buy as I’d like a full size hot swap keyboard. Being in Australia, choices are quite limited compared to smaller form factors at the moment. I need a numpad as I’m just use to using one day to day. A macro pad plus TKL might be the go… 👍

Reply to comment by b3ing0fsound in I decided to use a chess rating system to rank switches from some sample packs. Here are the results for tactiles after a couple of rounds! Overkill? Definitely. by b3ing0fsound
Very cool, feels similar to my own exploration of switches but much more organised! I only randomly pressed them, then as i got more similar ones realised I needed a similar approach of pairwaise blinded test to differentiate them. Started with the goal of around a 10-switch tester but ended up ballooning it to 21 atm. Lucky for me it is a bit harder to get some specific varieties or it would have hurt my wallet more.
I did start realising maybe I didnt like the huge bumps and high actuation forces as much after a particularly long session of pressing switches, so that may help approximate it.
Went from gat brown ew not enough tactile to yeah big bump of T1/Panda to more spread out wide Sapphire bump to ok maybe a cotton candy stronger brown is enough.
Suprised me that the small 5g differences can be quite big especially after long pressing sessions. Someone also thought me to press slowly with just the finger tip to identify the characteristics more. I rely on force curve graphs cause that is the most understandble way for me and also to compare from different sources. The differences they show are much smaller especially normal typing speeds and presses. Maybe it is the inexperience talking but it would be impossible to differentiate the hand full that are similar say 2 medium tactiles.

Http://Kono.store No need to wait for a group buy or hope you can find aftermarket.

Nice. I'm going to use the DMK Semiconductors on the Wooting I'm currently waiting for, but I want to build a 75 for my next one and I can definitely see using these if I can find a set.

They really fit the aesthetic I was going for here. Plus, they were on sale last month.

Transparent case. Though my Pixel upped the exposure a tad. Still fairly bright.

Thanks! I'm pretty new to the hobby and am still learning the jargon for different sounds, e.g. 'pingy' or 'thocky', and textures/feels, 'mushy' or 'heavy' of 'scratchy'. My fingers also don't seem that sensitive to different actuation forces yet, but maybe that's because I'm testing pairs of switches in isolated sessions, rather than in longer typing sessions on an entire keyboard.
That aside, if I had to take a stab a describing what I like with my limited vocabulary, I'd say I like the sound of 'thock' but prefer silent switches. I understand 'scratchy' now and don't particularly like it. Same with 'pingy' switches being less desired for me. Though, the latter two could just be implicit bias from reading posts here.
I also like a more pronounced tactile response/bump. Still not sure where I fall on actuation force without pulling the data for the switches I've tested, but, if I had to guess, I'd say medium to heavy.
