I (finally) got my package today. It was my first time buying keycaps from Massdrop and was surprised to get them jumbled up in a plastic bag (I'm used to getting them lined up in a tray/packaging). No biggie. I started fishing for keys. 4th key I pulled out was.. I don't even know WTH that key was supposed to be (photo attached).

I suppose I'll eventually figure it out once I finish sifting through the rest of them. But TBH, my extreme disappointment has left me so demotivated that it'll probably take me a while before I touch that messy bag of keys again.
Quality control FTW. I thought we're getting discounts for buying in bulk? Did I get that wrong and we're really getting discounts for buying junk instead? I've only been around for 2 months and I already joined 14 drops. I think Massdrop is telling me to start staying away. Really p̶i̶s̶s̶e̶d̶ disappointed.

ViraelIt's a squirrel, side profile, head facing right. It's the logo of KBTalKing (Taiwanese mechanical keyboard community) : http://kbtalking.cool3c.com/
All the Vortex keycaps I've bought come loose in a plastic bag. Even in retail packaging, these are loose in a plastic bag, the only difference is that the plastic bag is in a cylinder container.
I wish Massdrop will have a drop on the plastic keycap tray that EliteKeyboard sells for $6 (but I haven't seen it in stock yet).

ViraelTook a peek at the other drops you joined. These keycaps are not compatible with the LED color changers from some other reports (including a YouTube video). Just a heads-up in case you're not aware of it.

MadHouse@theimmc, @MadHouse Thanks for clarifying guys! My bad. I shouldn't have been so upset. But swear to god, I had no idea that was a squirrel. I mean, you already told me it's a squirrel but I still find it difficult to 'see' it as one. I thought it was a messed up 'S' or '8' or '&' or something. LOL
@theimmc The color changers are for something else (I did mention that I used to buy keyboards/keycaps somewhere else). I already have a pile of em, but can't stop myself from getting more. Nasty habit I need to break.
