Measures 24" x 24". Acquired as a bonus from my purchase of the CD on launch day. It's been in storage for years and I didnt get a decent frame until recently. I'm surprised at its condition when I unrolled it!
The Hi! Viz R2 base set, Glorious Raptor clicker switches on a Weikav Stars80 TKL in wired mode.
Many thanks to Novelkeys for the prompt delivery and to u/maxvoltar and GMK for the superb design.
I also ordered the expansion set to fill in some empty spaces on my EVA-01 Berserk Alpha set and am waiting on the international expansion to ship from GMK.
GO!

I've recently relocated to a new apartment and am finally getting some of my art collection on the wall.
​
The two smaller pieces are "Space Invader" and "TDR vs. The Entire Population of Sweden."
Just arrived from P-Bandai. Pic 1: acrylic art display and cover box art. Pic 2: BD case cover art (textless!) Pic 3: collector's box back art. Pic 4: art booklet cover art.
The acrylic art panel is larger than I thought it would be prior to arrival.
Also nice to see the movie properly formatted to widescreen displays.

According to my notes, this was one of the last group buys before Massdrop became Drop (RIP). I originally got the set to upgrade the Varmilo VA87 as the orange LEDs were south-facing (also a Massdrop group buy circa 2015).
Question regarding this Vortex set: it was listed as an OEM profile, but the top row has a taller profile than the number row. Is this something unique to Vortex so you can easily view the sidelit legends along that row? I picked up an el cheapo set of XVX sidelit caps from Amazon (also listed as OEM) and that set's top row was the standard height.
In my relatively short time with the hobby I found I've outgrown tactile switches and find linear switches not to my liking as they skew too close to stock membrane keyboards for my fingers. I'm growing older and my keyboard/mouse gaming skills are headed down the drain so I don't have a use for hypersensitive linear switches. Which effectively means I'm going all in with clickers.
Which brings me to Glorious Raptor switches. Yes, they do deserve some criticism for their overpricing and garish marketing but I think I've found a new favorite clicker switch surpassing my longtime workhorse MX greens. They have the ideal feedback that will keep me entertained while typing reports away at the office and the audible response reminds me of a bowl of Rice Krispies with milk freshly poured over them. The keycap/switch combination has almost zero ping on the stock Q3 barebones.
Weird that I've not seen Vortex bring this set back for sale as I really like the legends they used here. Their toplit shinethrough PBT set (which I also ordered from Massdrop) used butt-ugly legends.
