\[IC\] GMK CYL ZX ZX takes inspiration from the classic Sinclair ZX Spectrum - Incorporating the bright colors and grey keycaps to your modern board.Along with bringing you the more sculpted typing experience using Cherry R0 & R5 Boards: Image: Event Horizon by MVKB [Geekhack](https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=122576.0) [IC Form](https://forms.gle/KE7jzReejPXshNst5)

Approximate GB date assuming this IC round isn't too extensive?


chthonickeebs

Tough to say, but we're hoping to move as quickly as we can. Trying to get all the kitting finalized and then get quotes. We are already talking with vendors and GMK, so things should hopefully move quickly as soon as things are finalized.


Lukeski14

Can you summarize what's changed since this was last posted?


chthonickeebs

UK and Alice support in base Sublegends on Numpad Spacebars kit modified to extensions kit to increase it's value with alice bars removed - accent arrows matching the rainbow, windowed keys added No-top UV print alphas kit added 4-key 40s was added to the base kit as well but I'm not positive if that was before or after our previous Reddit post


T0NKIES

the event horzion is such a good match for the set tbh

10 PRINT “OH MY GOD I NEED THIS.“ 20 GOTO 10


RedOnePunch

Looks great. I wish more sets offered R5.


jh_2719

Now that's a proper basekit.


MustacheBananaPants

That touch of colour looks awesome on this build! My dumbass first looked at this like "Whoa, that's a cool Esc key" and then I saw the Esc key.


ArgentStonecutter

TBH putting the escape key there on an FRL board is *why* I want a 65XT. There's a bunch of boards with macro columns on the left that put a knob or logo or something in that spot and my brain goes "sproing".


VanMoroder

Gorgeous! I want that board so bad. Sadly missed out during the raffle.

What is it?

BFNentwick

Woah


lewilewi411

Ahh yes I took love *Boards:*


spingo123

Very classic. Very scratch of nostalgia itch. Yes yes. Good good.


ArgentStonecutter

TIL there's R0 and R5 for Cherry Profile. Are there other sets using these rows?


Mr_Smurfette

Only a handful of old sets like GMK Ascii & GMK Carbon R2


ArgentStonecutter

> GMK Ascii OH GOD IT'S THE 70s AGAIN :) > GMK Carbon R2 LOL APL symbols? And ADM3a arrow keys!


chthonickeebs

R5 is a bit more common - GMK Matsu is a fairly recent set with it, for example. R0 is very rare, though, as Beesley mentioned. WoB extensions is probably the most recent thing to include it, and that wasn't a full set.


tampabay323

The following sets I know have R5 too: Nuclead Data, Classic Retro Zhuyin, WoB Red Cyrillic. R0 is very rare, I only know ASCII and Carbon.


ConcreteSnake

Yup, love this! IC filled out


wooq

Wishing even more I'd have gotten a black Wind75 for the full Sinclair homage.


the_judge_168

Looks great! Loving the colors


ThePipersSon13

I haven't bought a GMK set in a while but this is too cool to pass up!


plotinmybackyard

I dig the colors, really beautiful set! I'm really avoidant of GMK as they seem to refuse to invest in triple shot and only do UV print. Which like is cool for novelties but ridiculous for alphas imo

Mister_Red_Bird

Those are nice. What board are they on in that picture?


Mr_Smurfette

Event Horizon by MVKB


joe1240134

Man the event horizon is such a sick board. I hate I missed out on the raffle :(


FuzzieTime

Beautiful keycap design, are the legends on Alphas white or more of a gray tone?


Mr_Smurfette

They are white, using full stock GMk colors


FuzzieTime

Cool, definitely interested in the group buy for this set.


PhaseByte

Looks awesome. Can't wait!


fnv_fan

Oblo as EU vendor tyvm


Speight-Merch

Thalidomidas
