Bagri's NP‑R (Numpad‑Retro) premiered on February 24, 2026 as a premium, retro‑inspired numpad kit aimed at the custom keyboard community, with initial retail listings placed by MinoKeys and several regional vendors. Flatbrains took responsibility for manufacturing and distribution, while the project retained a collaboration-style billing that credits Bagri as the designer.

The project structure is explicit: Bagri provided the design attribution, Flatbrains handled production and logistics, and MinoKeys listed the NP‑R for sale alongside the regional outlets that carried the kit. That division of labor follows a model familiar to builders who track designer-led runs and vendor fulfillment, and it places Flatbrains at the center of the supply chain for the NP‑R's first production run.

NP‑R is presented as a kit rather than a finished peripheral, framed by the name Numpad‑Retro to signal its aesthetic intent and market position. Described as premium and retro‑inspired, the NP‑R targets collectors and customizers who prioritize design lineage and vendor-managed runs; the kit format implies assembly and customization by end users familiar with numpad builds.

Availability moved quickly after the February 24 launch, with MinoKeys' retail listings serving as the primary storefront and multiple regional vendors supplementing distribution. Flatbrains managed fulfillment and distribution for those outlets, meaning orders placed through MinoKeys or a regional vendor were sourced from the Flatbrains production run attributed to Bagri's design.

The launch cements a formal partnership triangle: designer Bagri, manufacturer and distributor Flatbrains, and retailers led by MinoKeys. For builders tracking designer collaborations and vendor-exclusive runs, NP‑R provides a clear set of credits and responsibilities to follow as units ship from Flatbrains to MinoKeys and the regional sellers that listed the kit on February 24, 2026.
