    Finally got a reply from the case guy. Kam's Logo has been machined! and production should start soon still not sure when they will actually arrive maybe by end of year.

    Here is some additional information:

    *All colors will be available black, white, pink, skyblue (maybe a few other colors) but we will stock mostly white and black.
    *These will be customized so that some will have the typical rubber band on one side and pocket on the other and some will have the bands on both sides for maximum mod "holdage"
    *So far the only model we are making is the long one which is the only one that can house the longer mods.
    *The material will be the typical material used in current cases


    Here is the question for you all. A lot of cases such as pds cases have the indentation as in when you feel it the logo actually indents into the material but if leaves some spots not fully filled with ink. Do you prefer the indentation or just normal smooth feel? Also I will be able to have logo in various colors so I was thinking maybe just to a large portion of the cases in normal text and a handfull in colorful text just to try out and see the reaction. Will update when there's something new.

    Yeah process to get this started is a bit slow and painful so please be patient^^ should have it in a few months hopefully less~

    Sounds awesome smile.gif

    As for the indentation thing - I dont really mind as I never felt a pds case. But the bit about some ink missing sounds bad.?

    And do you know rough prices for the cases?

    if I'm not mistaken, this kind of indentation is usually done to prevent the ink from wearing off. If there was no indentation, the logo's ink would be rubbing against other surfaces and fade out sooner?

    Well, leaving some spots without ink sucks, so I say go without indentation. That also gives people the option to erase the logo if, god forbid, they want to do so xD

    Who'd want to erase such a sexy logo? :3

    I'd go with indented; since people who buy a UPSB pencase probably wants one, well, for UPSB.
    The indentations would make the ink last longer.

    Just go with the indentation, if there should really be a blank spot, you can go over it in sharpie once or twice..no difference

    So it has been decided that it will have bands only this first run. So bands on both sides. There will be 5 different color combinations. White with black letters, Black with silver letters, red with black letters, skyblue with black letters . Indentation was included as well since it seems that's what was desired.

    Date: Fri, Nov 13 2009 22:56:33

    unless I am wrong...you only mentioned 4 colors combinations. Are you keeping one hidden? Is it gonna be a surprise color? wink.gif

  15. Penwish
    Date: Fri, Nov 13 2009 22:57:28

    It's going to be a different textured black a bit smoother instead of rougher. more glossy.

    Date: Sat, Nov 21 2009 17:48:36

    will have one model that is smooth enamel type feel . going with normal colored text for now since each additional color is bit pricey; still with these 5 and next run we can get creative~

    Is it possible that us, UPSB people, get a little bit of cstomisation while others don't and we make it exclusive?

    Really nice cases.

    I like the black and white ones.

    and the one with the gold text too but i'd prefer it not on that leather material.

  38. Glamouraz

    Is this a one time only or will more come in the future?

  39. Penwish
    Date: Thu, Dec 3 2009 16:51:06

    Depends. I mean when they run out we can definitely get more; I'm sure this will last a while though

  40. Zombo
    Date: Thu, Dec 3 2009 16:52:33

    yeh

    we still have stock for UPSB RSVPs

    although to TBH I think they're kinda hard to find on the site, if you start making a lot of diff UPSB products, there should be UPSB category on the left bar.

  43. Zombo

    Getting a lot of questions regarding the shiny black case. It is smooth but not slippery. It is probably more prone to dust and other artifacts due to it's color but has a nice solid feel and look.
