Just ran across these on eBay. Decent legends. Price a bit rough but probably cheaper than sourcing a PBT set with Leo space bar. Looks like Leopold has been busy lately, what with this and the 750r.

(Link for the lazies.) (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-Leopold-FC660M-Mechanical-keyboard-Cherry-MX-Browm-switch-W-Sub-dye-cap-/301148422305?pt=PCA_Mice_Trackballs&hash=item461dd840a1)
I don't think the price is too steep, it's just that $20 shipping that makes it worse. I hope EK starts expanding their inventory soon, but I'm not very knowledgeable in the logistics it takes to even get these products to the states.

the keyset can be bought separately

$50 US for the set is not bad, but it is not really a low price either. Only if you consider that it fits the layout of the FC660M with no additional search for an space bar or right shift.
Thank you so much for pointing both, the keyboard and the caps set. I will mark this thread for my records, in case I need an additional set.

That's an interesting keycap box as well.

Now if only there were FC660C like this.

Give the customers what they want? Nonsense.

FYI: QTan has the FC660M with Thick PBT caps with the body in black, white, charcoal, red, and blue.

If something like this had been available back then, I would probably not currently be HHKB Hapster :eek:

You should contact QTan to ask him that, the site does not have but black, red, blue and brown switches now for the boards with dyesub caps. The boards with pad printed caps have the clears available, but not the new with sublimated legends discussed here.

Yeah I was curious about that, since I did see the old version with clears. *but* I do not have a board with blacks yet.. Maybe thats what i should go with!

FWIW link to the qtan's store: http://www.vendio.com/stores/E-sports-Gaming-equipments/category/cateogry1-name/catId=4367799
It costs $126 and comes with a black/gray/white/blue case and MX Black/Red/Brown/Blue switches.
I thought I was done with such keyboards, but this is tempting.

It's been on Taobao for some time (like a month).
The keycaps are pretty good even in dye sub ones imo
