tokyocoffeenerdI thought there was going to be an option for bottom acrylic diffuser? Did that not happen?
Edit: never mind, read the full description. Diffuser coming in a later version🙂

tokyocoffeenerdThe render of the rose gold version looks more like a pastel pink than a rose gold. In the photos of the rose gold prototype that you posted a little while ago, the rose gold was beautiful, and very different from these renders. Can I assume that, if I order a rose gold version, that it will look like the case in the prototype photos, instead of like the pink in the renders?

MakamiThanks for the link. I hadn't see that.
Unfortunately, the darker photo looks like rose gold to me, and the lighter one looks just like pink anodized. I really like gold with a rose tint, but personally have no interest in a regular, flat pink color. Now, I have to decide if I want to take a chance with this... if it ends up looking like the lighter photo with the flat pink color, I won't really be interested, though. Damn.

MakamiTo make things more confusing, I just looked the the Instagram link. (https://www.instagram.com/p/Baf51xdhlF5/?taken-by=tokyo.keyboard) That colors makes the case actually look rose gold and not pink, and it looks the way I'd really like it to look. For me, it's a really big difference from the photos that make it look like a simple pink.

fractlI hear you, that darker rose gold made me want this badly.
Now i'm on the fence to go space grey, i already own silver and black ones.

fractlAgreed, we need more fullsize pictures of the variations to make a reasonable decision.
We, the community, are breaking the servers, they're having problems to keep track.

MakamiSame with me, when I saw the photos of the prototype with the darker rose gold, there was no doubt in my mind that I wanted it. If it's going to end up looking like plain pink, I rather just order one of the other colors, though. I wish I could buy two, and then just keep the rose gold if it looks the way I hope it will look, but I can't really justify that. It's bad enough spending the money an not seeing anything in return for months, never mind spending double.

From the pic of the pcb it appears that only the top row has north faceing, so I think we’re good to go! Cherry profile won’t have a problem on that row

PixelPusherXXThe PCB's all face SOUTH now except for the two next to the USB connector - those had to be flipped to fit the hot swap sockets.
I use mainly GMK so know all about that r3 LED bottom out.. ugh!

fractlHey there! The Rose Gold should match my prototypes and MD is pretty clear on that - think the photos got color corrected in a funky way.
Anyways - color will be the darker more copper like Rose Gold from my samples!

Getting the right shade of rose gold is so important - glad I have my own samples for reference!

YanboWuThank you so much,
and agreed about lightning, but i would appreciate from the bottom of my heart to get "real conditions" pictures/lightning in the future!!!
If even the maker states "got color corrected in a funky way" something is wrong and kind of misleading!
In for Rose Gold and Halo True, let the waiting game beginn.

tokyocoffeenerdIs there any chance the PCB will be offered separately on it's own? I'd love to get ahold of a hot swap 60% board in HHKB layout without having to mess with holtites :)

tokyocoffeenerdThis is perfect. I have an artisan for ESC that I plan on using that looks best with a North facing LED, but using cherry profile so want South facing for the rest!

tokyocoffeenerdCan you share json file of tokyo60 layout for using kaymapping at http://kbfirmware.com/?
What controller shall I install? ATmega32U2? ATmega32U4? AT90USB1286?
For the beginner of QMK, can you provide any quick installation / key mapping guide? Thanks.

tokyocoffeenerdHey question for you though, as you stated that all colorways are unique and will not come back, how will this affect a future drop when the previously mentioned bottom glow addition comes up? I imagine this is handled by design but it would be a shame to have such a wonderful keyboard that have pieces slightly off in color. Regardless, can't wait to get my hands on this.

tokyocoffeenerdWhy not update the product images to accurately show the switch orientation of the final product? I think having to search the comments to find this information isn't ideal. Product images should be accurate.

I hope this can make each round still accessible but exclusive in it's own non-douchey way, and for everyone who joins each round, to know that what they're getting will be special and limited :)
Also shout out to Chokkan aka u/stoic-lemon for his super fun interview he shot with me last week! Catch it on his YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/FJxulIWs6Nk
//update: 2/24/18 @ 11:57pm Hey Everyone! There's been a few questions about what keysets/keycaps you'll need to fill out a tokyo60. I put this graphic together which will hopefully help make things clearer!
Most GMK Kits will fit. XDA, DSA, SA, MT3, Tai-Hao you'll likely need: - 1x 1.75u Shift (R4) - 2x 1.5u Modifier (R4) - 1x 7u Spacebar

FAQ: //How thick is the plate? 1.5mm - we tried 4.5mm and preferred the 1.5mm version as integrated makes it pretty stiff already.
//Does the PCB support PCB mount switches? YES! It will have the cutouts to support those snap in pcb legs.
//What shade is the Rose Gold? It will match my samples so will have a more copper like tone as in my profile pic. //Where are my HOLY PANDAS? Will we ever hear that wutang album? May or maynot be @YanboWu's official response.
It’s happening! Thank you everyone who’s been patiently waiting and thank you everyone who’s given their time, love, and energy to support this project.
Charles and Ray Eames famously remarked that good design is what “makes the best for the most for the least.” And with that I couldn’t be more excited to work with MD and @YanboWu to make the tokyo60 as accessible and available as possible. No raffles, no outrageous prices, just a focus on quality through simplicity.
A lot time was spent fussing through all the small details to make it just right. I hope you guys will enjoy the tokyo60 as much as we’ve had fun designing it!
