that is not going to happen unfortunately the sets won't change too much... sorry about that, you could talk with someone getting a base kit for an HHKB for instance and collect the few keys you need?

It won’t be a GB! We’ll take the time we need to make them just right, then sell as in stock items, shipping the next day from US or EU.

It’s been a long time coming but Topre keyboard users are finally getting what they deserve: nice keycaps! This new profile, designed by the talented u/23_Andreas, is a spherical sculpted keycaps profile for Topre keyboards. You heard that right, no need to mod switches, or mount weird adapters that may ruin your keyboard experience, URSA keycaps are injected with Topre-compatible stems. And the best part is they are double shot PBT, which is basically the best option out there to get crisp, perfectly aligned legends and vivid colors.
While we are figuring out the details, you may subscribe on our website to be notified when news come out. We’ll be having a survey very soon, to present the first colorway and make sure we know what colors/layouts you want or need!
Here is what we know so far:
- Topre stems (of course)
- Doubleshot PBT (the crème de la crème)
- Compatible with HHKB, Realforce and Leopold keyboards (no ISO/JIS for now)
- Fine legends, by an experienced designer (name reveal in a few weeks, so again, subscribe to be notified)
- Will ship at least from US and Europe
- 2 kits (note: legends have not been designed yet, but you may click the links below to check the kits’ content):
- Base kit: supports HHKB and FC660C
- Extension kit: adds support for RF 87U, RF TKL, RF 84U, RF 86U, RF 104U, FC980C, Topre Type Heaven
- Price: TBA (but we promise it won’t be so crazy!)

Please consider stating your request/need in the upcoming survey as this will be our point of reference for the next iterations!
No there won’t be japanese sublegends for doubleshot keycaps. We might consider running a set in dye sub but that’s not in the current plan. Yes the talk about ISO/JIS is regarding the shape of the keys
Yes it will be an additional extension kit for ISO/JIS layouts support
