The white LED versions from Massdrop usually have PBT keycaps. The blue and green LED ones are ABS.  It should say on the Massdrop listing if its PBT.

Did you order from the drop that just ended o Halloween?
If so, both versions come with PBT.
Back a few pages in the discussion there are a few posts about the backlit versions also having PBT

One thing to add... if you do have one with ABS keycaps you can buy some translucent Vortex PBT keycaps from MK for pretty cheap...
