Yup, it looks better with the cable, I'm still trying to get use to the looks.. 

It could also be the way the photos are taken, since it looks better from the top view rather than the from view of the nub..

I wonder will this be implemented for all the future Duck keyboards?

Just a quick update.  There won't be any ALPs compatibility on this since there are almost no 1.75u shift for ALPs switches.

There was one that was posted earlier, but who wants to pay $100 for a keyboard just for the 1.75u shift?

I'm interested in this keyboard, but sad to see that the minimalist flow of the design in disrupted in the middle by the sticker part.

Would there be a "normal" rectangular case without it as an option? Guessing that it's decided for some reason that he wants a sticker area.

I think the colourbars are the RGB SMDs that you can put on the top and bottom row of the PCB as you can see in the PCB pictures where there are those square shaped spots.  It looks like it only works if you have an acrylic case though as they are facing the bottom..?

Duck probably randomly picked names and made some samples of the stickers..:P

I see, so it's designed to work with Duck 75%, I have seen some custom PCBs that has LED strips on the bottom, and since it's a custom pcb, it has some hooked wires, which is a mess to me. Interesting. Any chance the acrylic case would be an option in the GB, Elton?

Please fill in the form if you are interested in this Octagon 75% keyboard.

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1zj9DyHz4yB0Aksdj6ce6prEuy8RkhS4GFH2svOl1AKw/viewform

There won't be any acrylic case option for the group buy. 

There will be 4 RGB LEDs included for the side. Additional LEDs will be extra cost.

Cost will be around the same price as the Lightsaver.

For the same price I provably prefer the light saver, especially since missing out on the v2 GB.

I think he said before that it would be between a lightsaver and another duck board in pricing but I wasn't sure if he has a closer estimate now.

It is similar cost to the lightsaver because of the newly designed PCB with RGB compatibility.

It is still cheaper than most of the other Korean keyboards.

The 40% keyboard from this one Korean keyboard maker is around $240.  Just for reference and that keyboard is not full aluminum (2 thin aluminum plates with PC walls).  Well his prices are always astronomical..

I must have missed it but will the thing at the center top aprt of the board be etched for personalization or will it just come with a personalized sticker that we will be attaching?

I don't understand where the rgb LEDs are installed? Can you still get that effect once switches and keycaps are in?

I see, so you can't use a plate if you want to see the RGB effects.

No I don't think you can't use a plate to get that effect.  The light will shine around the outside of the PCB and plate even with caps on. That's what it looks like at least.

Also there are 4 different layout options.
