I am not sure where this belongs. OP, feel free to move it!

Desko PBT RGB Dye Subs (this is almost always on the list)
Cherry PBT Dye Subs
356 series
Original KMAC (KMAC LE is not as rare, since I was able to distribute them)
Click Clack's?
Cherry Red Esc Double shot (for awhile)
Green switches
Grey switches
White switches

I can't think of anything else.

LZSE's
SoWare
LZ-F
Gold Plate Springs
Korean Springs
HASR0
Phantom
Model M15

How about LZSE's? I think only 50 were made o.o

I think custom keyboards from other forums in general are always up there

I'd say sanity.

SoWaRe sets are also kinda rare, however I have seen quite a few members with them... so I don't know how rare they are.

I am not sure if they were made in 2012 though. I think it was 2011, but I added it!

Any interesting items from the manufacturers? Those Anniversary Edition HHKB were awesome. Perhaps the RF 87U Anniversary Edition is somewhat rare, but it is always in stock. Just hard to buy them from a foreign country.

I remember they were quite rare when they came out. I remember members shelling out $350+ for them. I shall do you one better with the LZ-F. I shall own one someday!

62g gold plated springs!

That I concur.

I'm sure it comes under dyesubs but Cryllic ones especially.

Considering the half a dozen sets sold late last year, I think that SkiData and Cryllic legend dyesubs aren't as reared as they're pitched.

Good luck SmallFry, only 10 LZ-F's were made o.O

tp4tissue · « **Reply #10 on:** Wed, 09 January 2013, 07:21:11 »

No one mentioned FW900

reverkiller · « **Reply #11 on:** Wed, 09 January 2013, 08:06:06 »

Model M15 maybe?

For the first part of 2012, Cherry Red Escapes

You know a lot for being new:) I like the layout of the LZ-F though.

I'll take that as a compliment! I think LZ-S's has the same design/layout too

Maybe you'll have an easier time finding an LZ-S instead?

SmallFry · « **Reply #14 on:** Wed, 09 January 2013, 08:56:50 »

Erm. The LZ-F (unless I'm recalling the wrong model number) is a full 109 key keyboard; a full nav cluster (as like the Prof's Phantoms) and a full numpad. He chopped off the F-row however...

Acetrak · « **Reply #15 on:** Wed, 09 January 2013, 09:05:04 »

I think that might be a different keyboard o.O

Pretty sure this is what LZ-F looks like:

tsangan · « **Reply #16 on:** Wed, 09 January 2013, 09:06:03 »

SmallFry is talking about the LZ T

LZ S/LZ F I think is the same thing which is the LZ 86/87

SmallFry · « **Reply #17 on:** Wed, 09 January 2013, 09:06:15 »

I'll have to look when I get home. The IT department (which I, ironically, work for) blocks lzlife.tistory.com. Ugh

Acetrak · « **Reply #18 on:** Wed, 09 January 2013, 09:24:12 »

Oh, the LZ-T! You got some special taste SmallFry

Thanks for the info tsangan

boost · « **Reply #19 on:** Wed, 09 January 2013, 09:25:38 »

The Phantom was pretty rare

I got mine going before all the group buy stuff, so I agree it was a bit hard to track down a PCB.

Aha, thanks Tsangan.

Man, 1 year ago, the CCnG group buy happened. The year flew by fast!

TheSoulhunter · « **Reply #23 on:** Thu, 10 January 2013, 02:04:39 »

PBT doubleshots...
Also the GH60, yay!

This should be rarest items of 2013 lol.

We have seen a set from Vortex and a set from Signature Plastic, but it is only in its early process.

SmallFry · « **Reply #25 on:** Fri, 11 January 2013, 01:09:04 »

What about CCNB? I know there is a few sets out there:)

linkz · « **Reply #26 on:** Fri, 11 January 2013, 01:58:18 »

I've seen several types of RGB Dye Subs. The first thing I noticed is most of the version has a light blue 'Alt', and some with the darker blue version.

If someone could enlighten me, what do you call the darker version? I've been looking for those.

Saw some RGB photo with a white font as well

Some of those sets are doubleshots, notably Aggiejy's, Hashbaz's and MBC's RGB(Y, for Hashbaz's and MBC's)
