I think of it like this, injection molded plastic which can be produced at a pretty fast pace vs machining blocks of aluminum or cast aluminum which sounds more labor and time consuming. Gmk isn't even that good compared to some of the clones out there, for example the gmk mecha-01 vs a clone the clone has a more accurate color in terms of the darker purple and a more neon looking green. Ppl always say support the artist but the artist didn't do anything literally pick 3 colors with a theme usually inspired by some form of media and make novelties by simplifying a already known symbol/emblem by all means not every set is a copy of something there are original ideas.

Yes zfrontier are shipping them out however if you ordered from cannonkeys they are absolutely shit at keeping their customers informed. I messaged them directly and no response. On their product update page its still in manufacturing but in the email they sent 4months ago it supposedly done at the end of Feb.

Same 1st gb I joined and that's the last ill ever join, 2½ year wait for plastic where I have a whole kb received in half the amount of time. Just the image of getting defective keys or missing/duplicate keys will just show you clones are superior at a fraction of the cost and the best part less wait time and you can invest the money saved to something else.
