Appears to be ABS - though it does specify low profile step sculpture design.

Sort of pricey .. but limited edition - and only in Korea.

Here in Australia the standard Filco retails for;

  Product Code:   KE-FKBN87MRL-EB2     Brand:  Filco (http://www.auspcmarket.com.au/brands/Filco.html)    Weight:   2.95 KGS    Price:  $171.60 

So his prices aren't that atrocious, but I never knew Filco dabbled in the Green and Cheese keysets?

What are the deets on the caps on the cream cheese filco? Similar to stock filco ABS or something nicer?

Hmmm, that cream cheese version is very interesting. A limited edition available only in Korea? How cool.

The caps appear to be standard Filco ABS, just in different colors. Pad printed legends in Futura font. Really a nice find!

Nice one JD, you really poured the cold water onto this item  :-\ .

I would like the standard Double-shot plastic here but 'pad-printed', it'll rub off faster than a bride's nightie.......

Can confirm. My 1st mech was an also limited metallic blue filco MJ2 with the same pad printed font. Did not last.
