Title: Topre Keycaps for RF 104
Post by: bloorocket on Tue, 18 October 2016, 22:04:34

Was wondering if these actually exist,
OK hear me out, bought a RF 104 was very impressed by it, but I think I need the extra aesthetic
The black on white dye sub keycaps is just amazing, I have never experienced how good it is until now.
However, I think I need dark/grey Topre modifiers to make the keyboard looks much better

For me the white keycaps for the alphabets is just perfect. A dark grey/ dye sub/ topre would make the looks more perfect

Can anyone help finding this elusive delicacy?

Sorry for bad english, not a native speaker

Widebasket's store, EK (if they still carry the HHKB replacement sets), or the classifieds.

Topre keycaps are extremely hard to come by, as they are no longer produced.

Thanks for the tip.
I was waiting for Matt3o to MD the Topre set but the thread seems so silent.

Wait, Topre keysets aren't produced at all anymore?  What will I do when I need a new set for my Type-S?!
Why is that a thing?

It sounds like you're describing the Ducky 2013 edition Realforce almost perfectly:

The topre package is indeed very little, but you can look in the group purchase website.

Wow, any chance they are selling the modifiers only? Looks good
