I'd love to know as well.  I can vouch for the Grays, the Shine Grays I got are very dark.  They look good with Blue backlighting but especially nice with Red!  The Grays are really more like a Charcoal color.  They look very nice mixed with the contrasting White Keycaps like in my avatar.

We are just going to have to wait and see...sometimes I wish we lived in Taiwan because they have stuff there that is incredibly impossible to get here...but, just know what we are doing all that we can.

Any chance you can split up the 104 sets and sell them in groups of numpad, tkl, alphas, etc?

Then they would have to sell them as opened box items....

Which they could do, but there would be no guarantee that people would want to buy all the bits, so the price would probably increase.
"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

Ducky sets come with proprietary storage boxes, so I don't think they would be split up at least because of that.

Really they could, just discard the boxes, or even sell the boxes separately.

Unless there is some agreement with Ducky not to separate out the sets.

Just trying some marketing hype tricks...shortened it to MK. Honestly was not thinking about the noobs. Maybe it's because I'm not so noobish anymore. At least when it comes to keyboards, definitely 83% noob on the forums.  :p

Well, I don't know which you can get, but currently you only have the laser etched blacks in stock, which do not interest me. If I could choose, I'd primarily go for:

* Black on Yellow
* Yellow on Black
* Black on Red
* Black Blanks

and secondary:

* Gray on White
* Grey
* and possibly Green

but there's really no end to what I'd like ;)

We don't have any specific details on ETA's for Yellow PBT's, or any of the above mentioned PBT Dye-Subs...

As for which were you requesting, I meant which ones that we currently stock, would you like to see again.
