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.
-
Only sold with keyboards, not by themselves.
-
That is so dumb. Well so much for buying those. Thanks for the help.
-
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.
