Thanks for sharing X-Ray. This is another fantastic build! For clarity: the X-Ray keycaps will come painted by default (not optional). Meaning the few visible injection-mold "holes" that you see Alex painting, will already be covered up. His stream was meant to be more of a demonstration of the process, and appearance of before and after. Sorry if there was any confusion. Thanks all for your support!
Glad to hear. I was not a fan of the holes.
Would love to see these caps on a board with per-key-rgb. Checked the IG and main site and coudn't find any. Imagining it'd look really good.
@@Zhanjo Check out Taeha's VOD of the Baldr65
@@MatthewEncina I actually watched that VOD a week or two ago and didn't put two and two together that these were the same caps... definitely trying to get a set for myself 😍
Is there a date for this preorder to begin?
Just a fun little video showcasing a few things we did over the week, which was taking a look at a 1/1 Moontower and the X-Ray keycaps. We even put them on the Kohaku! Enjoy!
I've been following the X-Ray set for a while now, can't wait!
wow those keycaps are sick, would love to make a project with painting each of them individually
"Just have fun with your sh*t"" - exactly how I look at it!! Heck I change keycaps almost daily just because it's fun to do and the board gets a complete different look, feel and sound.
Tai-Hao keycaps have been doing this for their cubic profile for awhile now. Good to see other manufacture starting to pick this up as well.
these keycaps look and sound so nice
If you look at the keycaps up close, they seem to have a lot of visible imperfections, not sure if that is the manufacturing process or what, but Im not really feeling that at all.
Sound is immaculate!! Space could be a little higher pitched to match the others.
Alex describing sound signatures with food flavor profiles is…..👀
My new favorite thing 👏🏼👏🏼
LOL!
Looks amazing
Xray looks so cool. Day 1 purchase for me!
i want these keycaps so bad but im terrified the translucent layer will yellow with just regular use and finger oils
Im on the waiting list for the xrays and i cant wait for them to get in stock
X-Ray keycaps with a polycarbonate top is just a perfect vibe
Edit:: I really hope they make another round of GB
these x-ray keycaps are LIFE
They are so good!
Imagine a reverse mictlan set on those keycaps. That'll pop the color off too
It would be really cool if they offered different colors for the letters.
The board looks sick
God I cannot wait for this keycap set. Def gonna throw it on the Baldr65 🤤
That will look SO good.
@@alexotos I KNOW RIGHT!?
Child: Ahhhhh, they're look cool mom.
Mom: we have keycaps like those at home.
The keycaps at home: the one's Razers made
I can't find them in stock anywhere. I think these keycaps would look insane on the glass keyboard you showed a while ago.
they haven't gone on sale yet but they will very soon!
They come out very soon! And I agree, on the glass board it would be insane.
When is this set gonna drop? Ive been waiting for a bit and ready to cop a set.
dont know why the moontower is still goes for $1000+ in aftermarket. neat keycaps though Matthew!
It shouldn’t even cost 200 it’s should at least be 100
Super curious on how the keycaps would look with per key rgb!
Will you be doing a Mode SixtyFive anytime soon? Excited to hear your thoughts
dude you gotta put us on where you get all these clean usbc cables
Ordinary labs and Space cables
That case is soo good. What keyboard is it
is there a black/dark version of this ???
do you spring swap and film your nixies? I'm thinking of breaking mine in and spring swapping and filming my nixies, but I have no clue what kind of springs I wanna get for them. also super excited for pbtfans x-ray!
for whatever it’s worth, generally the sentiment is that cherry springs are not great and are definitely worth swapping, and most folks film them as well, though a lot of folks like to leave the spacebar switch unfilmed
Man i might need to build a pc board with these...
I really want to buy these please help I don’t know where to get them out of stock everywhere my life is on the line 😂
How were the nixies modded? (Which films and springs?)
That is just Tamika paint from rec hobby shops right?
Correct! But you wont need it for the final caps, they come prepainted.
"We have gmk civ at home" 😂
The tamiya colors you use are usually used with airbrushes so I would use two to tree layers
Good to know! I'll be trying some other fun paints on caps like these soon.
Anyone know how these xray keycaps look with per-key-rgb?
I mean, he cut the lights off with the RGB on. You can't really see the keycaps RGB underneath
@@sonofulti1337 the moontower only has underglow RGB I believe. So the video wasn't really representative of what the caps would look like on a board with per-key-rgb.
I just looked at this keyboard why is it 550 dollars💀
Jerrod Forks
why is this dude lubing his keycaps

The holes look terrible
I agree. That's why the production models have all of their "holes" painted white by default. You can check out photos of it on the sales page to determine if it looks better to you.
