Just an additional information: This version currently being sold isn't the international version, so chances are the version from Taobao and Mechkeys won't have VIA support and screw-in stabs support. The international version (with all features) will launch in december. They said so in their twitter account and discord server.

I have the first version of this board with north facing led and fr4 plate. I really like it. Also turns out the knob not being programmable wasn't a big deal at all because I only use it for volume anyway.

How is PBTfans quality? I saw there were some issues with modifiers text for example on their WoB set. I really want to either get this or the other upcoming ronin set. Any chance of icon mods on the akuma set?

Yup, I print deskpads to order. Also, it's up to 6 weeks - for example, if you place an order before the 4th of December it will be printed and shipped out around the 10th of December because it will be added to the December batch.

It's not ideal (it's impossible to have all designs in stock as we have nearly 100 of them) but much better than standard GBs where you have to wait a few months at least.

I plan to reduce the waiting time from 6 weeks to ~3 weeks in Q1 2023.

Maybe it would be a good solution to keep the best designs in stock.

Thank you for the feedback! :)

Any problems with those sliders? The ones I have (pff, can't even remember who made them.. it's been years) are slightly rotated, just enough to be occasionally annoying when you look at the board from the top.
