I understand. We decided to do the most popular magic sets from the earlier years of magic. I do am an Arabian, Antiquities, Legends, and The Dark player. I also played a lot of Ice Age too.
As far as price, we are breaking this set into kits in order to keep the price down for each kit. You only need to order what you what you want.

Clickies:

If you're only looking at the MX compatible platform, you basically have two options - clickbars and clickjackets. For clickbars, I'd recommend trying Kailh Box switches as others have recommended. I'd recommend whites and pinks as safe choices. For clickjackets, I'd try to avoid these as they tend to be rattly and bad sounding due to their poor design.

If you look outside the MX compatible platform then your choices open up a lot. There are some amazing switch designs out there like beamsprings, buckling springs, Alps, SMK 2nd gen etc. that will frankly make Cherry MX look like a joke.

Tactiles:

The usual recommendations within the MX platform seem to be Boba or Panda clones or Durock T1 etc. They're fine, nothing too impressive or mind-blowing.

Outside the MX platform again, I'd recommend trying Topre, Alps tactile, SMK 2nd gen tactile etc.

Btw, all clicky switches are also tactile. I can't think of any that aren't right now

Love the idea and the colors are great.

I want my original 4 expansions as novelties, and would take all of the pre-cycle sets if it were an option. I don't recognize all of the newer symbols and want Arabian, Antiquities, Legends, and The Dark for my F5-F8.

Thank you for using the original mana symbols. Those are amazing in their current form.

I do want these. I do not know that I would be able to commit to the cost. :/
