Yup, Costar style, but I definitely sure it is not made by Costar. The good part with that keyboard is that it is provided with lots spare parts(extra keycaps, stabiliser insert and even stabiliser mount on the steelplate) right out of the box.

In case you need review on it, do visit the review section for its review.

Only the very first few batches of Keycool 104(fullsize) having Cherry stabiliser, all their other products use Costart style.

Does the Keycool have a Leo or Filco/Ducky spacebar?
If Fil/Duck, I'm in for one, preferably with a white body.

Sadly no, Keycool is following the spacebar standard on Leopold FC500R. Though, spacebar from Noppoo Choc Pro and Neo Zelia 87 should be universal compatible on all Costar wire style stabiliser keyboard, including keycool.

Though, some rumors say that their upcoming Backlit Tenkeyless will using a new and normal standard spacebar, not too sure.

They don't have CLEAR(actually they do have, just that it is LIMITED EDITION and cost around 20USD more than other switch variant).

Two options: TheProfosist could probably mod a space bar for you.  Also, if that is not enough and you are seriously interested I can see what it would take to also include space bars as an optional item on the side.

There is exclusive colorful(6colors and another 2 for black and white) spacebar for Keycool in taobao. What the person I quoted is that he afraid he can't change the spacebar when he get a whole set replacement that spacebar don't fit.

So am I. Keycool's Cherry Clear version is marketed as their year 2012 limited edition at 488RMB(normal version range from 340-370RMB).

so far:

plus me which makes five.

It looks like everyone is interested in the white so that is what we will stick with for simplicity sake.  Ideally I'd like to see 5 more buyers for purchasing power but if we can't I'll see what I can do.

I can't guarantee the will have costar stabs (supplier won't open boxes to check.)  It sounds like by now they should all be costar - not a guarantee however!
Just some fix. Actually I own a Keycool already, so don't include me in the IC, thanks.

BTW, if you are getting 87(TKL), you can rest assured that it is Costar style stabiliser.
