The quality of those is definitely high level, maybe even comparable with GMK. The colors are exactly how I wanted them, the weird thing is that they look a bit better in person than on the product pictures. But Short tip, use a white Keyboard case, maybe HHKB would look amazing too. It's just the perfect Keycap set for me. I like the colors, the material and the quality, the design with the big font. This was actually my first MT3 keycap set, but I can say with confidence it won't be my last. It is absolutely super comfortable to type and it has a clean look.
Color wise, this is my favorite MT3 profile drop keycap set. I got the ortho kit for my planck. I have 3 others and this is as excellent as the rest of em. Very thick, quality materials, clean molds, nice texture, and I love the extra concave F&J index keys. I cant overstate how much I love the mt3 profile, it works well on flat or inclined boards. These are definitely some of the highest quality caps on the market. On the ortho kit i didn’t get the RSE and LWR keys?
Little bonus of my build - Glorious lynx switches match the legends perfect!
I got the base kit and it looks and feels plenty fine to me. No issues with fit or finish so far. They're a bit different from SP SA profile... Biggest difference is probably the bottom row which is sculpted rather than being flat. Personally I'm not a fan of this as it makes it easy to accidentally strike them, so I'm taking off a star for that. But they do look very nice in this colorway. Pick them up on sale, or pass if you don't like SA/high pro.
Lots of people compare these to other color ways so I’ll follow that trend. In my mind, this is probably as close to a Synthwave MT3 set as we’ll probably get so I preordered as soon as my next Keyboard Club discount arrived. As is typical, it was hit with a couple of delays but they were only late by a month so in the big picture, not that big a deal.
I had my eye on a TM680 and bought the tiffany color specifically in hopes of matching this keycap set. That was a gamble that paid off! It looks amazing and I can whole heartedly recommend it for any other similar colored boards. No interference on my Box Royal switches and great thocky sounds.
My only complaints are the same ones I have for some of these recent Drop sets. The lack of accent keys is puzzling (no accented enter key or space bar?), the lack of unique novelty keys is disappointing (but that could be rectified with a later run right Drop? Hint hint) and I’d personally prefer PBT to ABS. No other downsides for me. MT3 is my favorite profile and this is just another great example of why.
Best colors in the best profile, wish it had F13 or any other R0 keycap to fill the gap
You either like tall profile keycaps, or you don't. But if you do (or don't know if you do) this is a wonderful keycap set. The only downside to this (and many other MT3 sets) is that it doesn't come with an F13 key, which are increasingly common on custom TKLs.
I'd been waiting for a dark MT3 set with a hint of color:

This seems like a tricky colorway to photograph on a smartphone as many of the pics I am seeing out there of them seem over-exposed and/or oversaturated. They really are a dark blue, which, given the name Dusk, they really ought to be.
However, I'm just going to keep repeating how much we need to get Row 5 in ABS MT3 sets. While I took the pictures above with all the keys in their normal orientation, I still have to at least invert the spacebar and Raise/Lower keys so as not to hurt my poor tender, tender thumbs. Until that happens, I can't rate an MT3 ABS set higher than three stars however nice they may look. Ultimately, a keyboard is a thing of utility for me. It's not enough that they're pretty. Seriously, if you haven't tried MT3 in PBT with Row 5, stop reading this and go buy something like MT3 Extended 2048 or /dev/tty Custom (or both, below).
If you like the MT3 profile and are looking for a less flashy set with a uniform color, this is a good option. The base color is dark enough to not be flashy yet distinctly blue enough to not look like a black keycap set.
Two minor complaints:
Some of the legends have inconsistent letter width (for example, the letters on the delete key from the base kit are noticeably thicker than those on the R0 delete key in the hobbyist kit)
Would be nice if the base kit included some more R0 keys for better compatibility with some 65% and 75% layouts
I was very impressed with the level of saturation in the MT3 Dusk keycaps from DROP. The ocean blue with light blue accents is very rich and consistent throughout. The legends are crisp and are easily visible in low lighting. If I had any comments, it would be that these show dirt/lint VERY easily. I felt like they were covered in a fine layer of white dust when they arrived. I washed and blow dried them off, and they looked much better, but after a bit, it was easy to see dirt/lint again. Not a huge concern, especially if you keep your keyboards clean. All in all, I would absolutely recommend!
I love MT3 keycaps so i picked these up on sale as I didn’t have this set yet. Love the solid colorway as a change from some of my other sets. Cannot go wrong with a nice dark blue set!
As the title says, I got this during the 96-hour flash sale. These keycaps are nice and the profile is a good choice if you think SA doesn't provide a good typing experience (I do) but you like the spherical aesthetic (I also do).
