Congratulations!! You made a great choice with a Ducky keyboard :)  Browns are my personal favorite too.

Nice work on the video!  One point I'd add is that there's been a kind of a limited edition Ducky Shine with MX Clears, but for all intents and purposes, it's unavailable to most.

Thank you very much, it was my first Mechanical Keyboard and also my first product review, but I plan on doing more in the future! So all of the constructive criticism is appreciated!
I've only ever tried brows and blues, but so far I prefer brows over blues, I like them quite a bit.

Oh really, I didn't know that (about the clears), I also left out this crazy thing:

Ducky Shine II 78 Version Hybrid
Why do hybrid switch boards exist? Seems like it would be really weird typing on those. I see how some sections have different switches, but even the F keys have different switches too what's up with that?!

Thanks again  :-*

The novelty factor, I think... Part of the appeal is that it would allow one to try out a bunch of different switches.

Thanks a lot everyone, still enjoying it so much to this day!
Been getting a little more careless with it though, might do a cleaning soon :).
Everything is still intact and (mostly) clean  :p!

'Grats on the purchase, welcome to the mechanical keyboard master race!:D I have a similar board in the DS2 Special Edition with white key caps (Blue switch) and green LED as well as the 78 Version you'd mentioned, love 'em both! In fact, I love all mu Duckys!;)
