Wow, those look pretty nice! Depending upon price I might have to make one of these happen. Hopefully there is a decent stock of them because I have to imagine demand will be pretty high. I bet the black one will sell out very fast.

Im guessing those of us who have aftermarket plates (stainless or aluminum) will need spacers/adapters like what is required for the Vortex cases? Similar to these - http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=46827.0

Maybe, since these are probably low-profile cases(like all of TEX's products),so custom plates and the likes would definitely have issues.

This hobby and it's hunger for mah money...

I'll probably jump on a blue one of these for my Ducky. I'll also test it out on my KUL keyboard. Those status light holes make me want to get a Filco...

Thanks for sharing! Lots of useful info.

Those look pretty good!  My QFS will be happy in it I'm sure.  Now I just have to get it back from Philadelphia.

If they do a purple one I might be in some trouble.

I might get one for my MJ2...

These are standard profile from the looks of the first picture.

Not sure how you would even be able to fit a plate into a low profile TKL case unless it was just a tray.

Also, is it possible to mod a Shine 3 to have indicator lights like a Filco does?

I have no info about that. He only mentioned ducky. Guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Interesting, although they look very similar to the vortex cases.

But seemingly more compatible? can't really seem to find vortex cases anywhere anyways...

Ask @sdiearly, he's the original poster.

Just checked, it's the same forum username.
