Title: Hard to find ALPS keycaps, this is what I've got so far.
Post by: Jgs5093 on Wed, 05 September 2012, 16:46:43: Suggestions welcome, these are sadly the only colors I could find out there so I had to make due with what I had. Planning on getting the non 1x keys made up from SP eventually.

Post by: Jgs5093 on Wed, 05 September 2012, 16:57:41: I picked them up from Fentek-Ind(with the exception of the Red Esc, thats SP), pretty sure I found their link here buried in a thread somewhere, they sold me the rest of the ALPS caps they had.

Here is a pic of the keys I got

They also sent me these, but the green key wasn't alps so I couldn't use it, and I am already using a red escape, I might make use of the panic on another board I have.
