A "spur of the moment thing" hah!  I have absolutely no idea where I'd even start to think about considering the possibility of doing anything even remotely like this ;)

There was no copying implied at all - both are original, really nice, and somewhat expensive :)
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

I thought the rebel kit was black printing? All I know is that I wasn't a participant.
Then there was MBC's RGB and Hashbaz's kit. I think I ended up with sets from them both.

MBC's kit:

I did a RGB group buy with white a bit before Hashbaz's.  Perhaps from there... a lot were sold.

http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=20058.0

Edit: BTW, I think I have about 5 or so sets left over that I was saving for replacements.  (Never had any!)  So if anyone really wants some RGBs, I'd probably sell them for the same as the group buy was.
