19/06/21 Update
Hello guys, it's been long since I gave an update to this thread. As some of you may know, I am facing some major changes in my life and don't have quite enough room for running group buys on my on.
So I've been talking with mykeyboard.eu for a while for them being the vendor of upcoming UD projects, and now the UD_40 seems to be ready to proceed! Further details will be announced by a separate thread created by mykeyboard, and I will link it here as soon as it is posted.
+ UD_70's timeline should be decided as soon as things are scheduled with mykeyboard, so please wait for the update on that as well. Thank you everyone for the support, have a good one!
