Frequently Asked Questions
Is GMK Striker 2 a limited group buy?
No. Vendors will be taking orders for GMK Striker 2 from March 3rd, 2021 to April 6th, 2021. Within that period, group buy participants are free to order any kits available without limit. There’s no need to rush, so please take your time when ordering a set to ensure that everything is correct.
Is GMK Striker 2 exactly the same as the 2019 run?
No. There are significant changes regarding kitting and I’ve updated the Latin + Hiragana legends to the same ones Serika 2 uses. Striker 2 uses the exact same colors as its previous release.
Will GMK Striker be re-released without Hiragana sublegends, or in any other alternate colorway?
No. I believe it makes no sense for a set that is inspired by the Japanese National Football team (also known as the Samurai Blue) to be released in any other color or without the sublegends.
Will GMK Striker 2 have any Rama novelty keycaps like the 2019 run?
No. Rama Works has made the decision for 2021 onwards to not re-run collaboration caps with the same design. This means I cannot offer the Crimson and Fuji caps as they were during the first round and I have no interest in changing a design that I was really happy with.
Why is GMK Striker 2 shipping in Q1 2022?
GMK Striker 2 is a made-to-order keycap set that will be available to order for a limited time during its pre-production. Once this period is over, regional vendors place a bulk order with the manufacturer (GMK Electronic Design GmbH) which then prepares for the production of the items. As the demand for GMK’s sets is significant, so is their backlog.
