The full story
Meet Zibby - eight months at this address and he still gets bin night wrong.
Zibby is the newest resident of 4 Hollow Lane and the one who has settled in least. Bin night has been explained to him more times than anybody has counted. He nods. He writes it down. It goes out on the wrong night anyway, so the others gave up and now just move the bin themselves without mentioning it.
Bright green with wide eyes and antennae, he is the loudest colour in the house. In a holder he is a small green button that suits a wandering hand, and he makes a very findable function key on a board of your own.
Why You'll Love It
- For hands that will not settle: in a holder he sits on a real clicky switch, which is more use to a restless finger than the edge of your desk.
- Goes on your own switch too: MX-style cross stem, tested on a Kailh Box.
- Cuts through a grey desk: that bright green sits very differently to a run of black and beige keys.
- Nothing to do with Halloween: a friendly alien belongs on a desk all year, no seasonal excuse needed.
- The cheapest colour you can add: under four dollars to break up a desk full of grey.
What You Get
- 1 x Zibby the Alien 3D-printed keycap
He wrote it down. It did not help.
Note: a keycap on its own does not click. It needs a mechanical switch to press against, either in one of our keycap holders or in your own keyboard. Caps are roughly 19 x 19mm across and between 16 and 19mm tall depending on the character, with an MX-style cross stem. Check your switch type and key spacing before ordering if you plan to use one on a keyboard.
Made to Swap
This keycap is designed to press-fit onto a compatible MX-style switch. We intentionally leave it unglued, so you can remove it and swap in another compatible keycap later.
