No.

The Zero series are Filcos with ALPS-compatible switches instead of Cherry MXs (the Majestouch series).

Now, that's a good question.  You can get the WSAD caps from Elitekeyboards, but not the red Esc by itself (I'm not sure why).  Somebody might sell/give you a red Esc cap that they got with their Filco as it's not everybody's cup of tea.

Back to boring technical stuff (I gotta hurry and get back to Wakawaka thread).

Looks like what Signature Plastics calls the DCS family
