DROP The Lord of The - Review

If you're a Lord of the Rings fan and a keyboard enthusiast, you're in for a treat with the DROP + The Lord of the Rings MT3 Elvish Keycap Set. This keycap set is a beautiful, high-quality tribute to the Elves and the Tengwar script they created. In this review, we'll dive into the design, build, and compatibility of this unique keycap set.

Design:

The DROP + The Lord of the Rings MT3 Elvish Keycap Set was designed by Matt3o, a well-known name in the mechanical keyboard community. The set features a subdued-green-and-off-white colorway, which is reminiscent of the natural beauty of Middle-earth. The ornate legends on the keycaps are faithful translations of corresponding Sindarin terms and Tengwar characters. This attention to detail makes the set truly immersive and captivating.

The Elvish script used on the keycaps is instantly recognizable from the writings on legendary items such as the One Ring. It was created by the ancient Elf Fëanor and eventually replaced the runelike Cirth to become the text of choice for Elvish languages such as Sindarin. This set features the Sindarin language, which adds an extra layer of authenticity to the design.

Build:

The DROP + The Lord of the Rings MT3 Elvish Keycap Set is made from dye-sublimated PBT. PBT stands for polybutylene terephthalate, which is a type of plastic that is highly durable and resistant to wear and tear. Dye-sublimation is a process in which the ink is infused into the plastic, creating a long-lasting and vibrant finish.

The keycaps have a high-profile design, which means they are taller than the average keycap, providing a comfortable typing experience. The set is compatible with Cherry MX style keyboards, which is a common type of mechanical keyboard switch. The keycaps fit perfectly on full-size and 1800 layout keyboards, making it a versatile option.

Compatibility:

The DROP + The Lord of the Rings MT3 Elvish Keycap Set comes with an Elvish Numpad Kit, which includes a standard numpad kit with legends in Tengwar only. It also includes an Eye of Sauron novelty keycap, which is a nod to the iconic symbol of Sauron's power in the Lord of the Rings.

Pairing the Elvish Numpad Kit with the Base Kit will provide you with full-size and 1800 layout compatibility. This means that you can add the keycaps to most keyboards with ease. However, it's essential to make sure that your keyboard has Cherry MX style switches, as the keycaps are not compatible with other types of switches.

Conclusion:

Overall, I highly recommend the DROP + The Lord of the Rings MT3 Elvish Keycap Set to any fan of the Lord of the Rings or those who appreciate high-quality keycap sets. The design is stunning, with attention to detail that is unmatched. The build is durable, and the compatibility is extensive, making it a versatile option for most mechanical keyboards. With a 5.0 out of 5 stars rating and 7 reviews, it's clear that customers love this set, and I'm sure you will too.
