Stretch Goals

If the 500/150 sets goal is reached between participating vendors, these keycaps will be included for free with their respective kits.

Zambumon has teased a potential bonus for hitting 1000 sets as well :)

Why the blue?
The original Chocolatier was inspired by the 2005 film adaptation of Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

Zambumon's vision was to release 3 colourways to match the Wonka bar wrappers but this wasn't practical, so they became novelty keycaps.

They now return as accent keycaps through the stretch goal.

FAQ

Q: Are the colors the same as the original round?
A: Yes, GMK Chocolatier 2 reuses the same base colors from the previous run. The only small change is having dark brown legends on the yellow accents instead of black.

Q: Will there be an International kit?
A: The demand has historically been quite low for these specific kits. If available, it will likely be offered directly through the GMK store.

Q: What is the estimated time of arrival (ETA)?
A: The keycaps are estimated to arrive to us and be dispatched in Q3 2026 (Aug-Sept).

Q: How will the keycaps be packaged?
A: They will be packaged in standard GMK packaging tray and sleeve.

Q: What is the rationale behind the kitting for Chocolatier 2?
A: Chocolatier 2 keeps the Core focused on essential layouts to stay approachable and affordable while enthusiasts with specialised boards are covered by the Extension kit.

Q: Why the stretch goals?
A: It is not practical to manually refund the difference to every customer when price breaks are reached, so these 'stretch goals' are used to provide a bonus at no additional cost.

Q: Will there be any further stretch goals?
A: While no additional stretch goals are officially confirmed at this time, additional bonuses may be considered if the group buy performs exceptionally well.

Q: Why should I buy from a regional vendor, and who are they?
A: Multiple vendors are involved in this group buy, which means you can enjoy cheaper shipping by purchasing from a vendor in your region or close by.

Q: Can I combine this group buy with other items in the store?
A: To keep things simplified, we do not allow combining group buy items with in-stock items. If this happens, we will reach out via email.
