Which one should I choose guys?

Should I not add led?I think not.KUL looks ok too,a bit more pricey.Also it looks to me that those mini usb cables are not reliable at all.What's your experience.

Welcome to Geekhack!

The Yellow Edition Ducky is great!  I have the engraved TKL version with MX blacks.

The one you have listed also have engraved keycaps.  You can see the engraved letters in the right light, but otherwise they appear more or less blank.  The blank ones are completely blank, but the site you listed does not seem to sell the blank model.

The yellow LEDs in mine actually look a bit orange.  It got worse when I swapped some of the keycaps out for black ones from one of my other Ducky Shines.  With the yellow keycaps they still look yellow though.
"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
