Hmm qtan seems to be selling rainbow Keycaps. They won't be all noppoo compatible but unless you live in china and have a Chinese bank account, you can't get it. :(

It's okay: the rainbow one linked has all the modfiers/spacebar in the original (PBT?) noppo white.

Thanks for the links to the other rainbow cap sets, but I'm really looking to grab a Choc Mini specific set. I ordered some keys from WASD and the mismatched height drove me crazy ;{

Some of the rainbow sets qtan is selling is listed as engraved and some are listed as top printed. Engraved is obvious but what exactly is top printed? It is pad printed, laser etched or perhaps even dye sub?

I emailed Qtan asking about availability of the rainbow caps but haven't heard back yet. I'll post his reply here when it comes.

Ask him about the printing type he is using. A side lasered PBT set would be perfect, rainbow or no rainbow!
