Unlike traditional Nylon bottoms which produce a "thud," the Magmallow top (and bottom pairing) creates a porous acoustic signature. The plastic is not quite silicone, but it has a lower durometer (softer plastic) than standard ABS. This results in a bottom-out sound that is described as "marbly" or "squishy" in the best way possible—it eliminates the harsh clack. Typing Feel: The Train vs. The Marshmallow The name promises a contradiction: a heavy train and a soft marshmallow. How does that work in practice? The Press (The Train) Because this is a "Train" series switch, the stem poles are extended. This means the travel distance is shorter than a standard Cherry MX Red (4.0mm). The initial press is light—around 45g. However, due to the POM stem and polished rails, there is zero scratch . The smoothness is comparable to a well-broken-in Gateron Ink Black.

There is a slight suction sound on the return stroke due to the "Magmallow" material’s tight tolerances. It sounds expensive because, well, it feels expensive. Hotswap vs. Soldering The Nobara Train Magmallow Top features a standard MX-style pin layout (three pins or five pins depending on the batch). Most variants are 5-pin PCB mount , making them incredibly stable and eliminating wobble. nobara train magmallow top

You are a speedrunner who needs the fastest reset possible (go with Tangerines), or you absolutely hate the feeling of bottoming out on a soft surface. | Specification | Value | | :--- |
