Ducky Dye Sublimated Keycaps
« on: Sun, 16 June 2013, 14:46:52 »
I haven't heard anything on the release of these and couldn't seem to find any online. Does anyone know where I can find them or if they have even been released yet?

Don't think they've been released yet. Are you referring to the ones they teased when they posted pictures on their FaceBook?

Yeah I was talking about the ones they had on their Facebook page. Thanks for the link but those are the keyboards not just the keycaps.

Ducky Nordic can provide just the keycaps, but in very limited quantities (already or very soon).  They seem to supply a European store Teraset.  They've also been able to supply pink and white Shine cap sets to them, whereas those are still not available elsewhere.

I was in Hong Kong all of last week and many stores were already carrying these keyboards. I didn't bring one back because I couldn't really justify having another cherry keyboard with generic red blue black brown switches when I already have my topre. These are indeed very thick PBT dyesub keycaps, no TKL is offered but the pricing is very good at around $115-120USD, or 890 HKD. If I were you I'd just get the whole keyboard, this doesn't cost much more than imsto PBT dyesub keycaps, which are like $75 a set if I remember. The Ducky boards felt really solid when I tried them.

I would rather not spend the money to buy another keyboard just for the keycaps when I already have one that is similar.

I am planning to buy one --- the all grey keycaps specifically --- do you want to trade another set with me?

Thanks for the offer but I don't want to do that simply because you would be over paying for the board just to get those keycaps. I will just wait and see if they sell them separately or sell my current Ducky and buy one with those keycaps.

If I remember correctly, Ducky said on their facebook page that they would be releasing the keycaps separately at some point after releasing the keyboards.

I hope your right. That would be a lot better than spending the money on another keyboard that is almost identical to mine.
