I guess the boards have Topre switches in a non-Topre keyboard?

I found this from the Realforce site. It looks very similar, but the badge is different, and there is a modifier key with additional printing.

That space bar!
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

It may be new old stock, it looks like the the logo is one of the older styles. In the DT wiki there are example of past logos.

Yeah, this was an intermediate logo.  It came just in between "Topre REΛLFORCE"  and "Topre cloud-0-bewbs".

Anyone know about this?  Most of the ones I see for sale now are "REAL FORCE".

I think there are just a lot of companies sticking Topre switches on boards and calling them whatever they want.  I've seen some that say Leopold on the bottom. 
What would be the best brand of Topre keyboard?

It's just a difference in logo....I don't think any company can just 'stick' a topre switch in anything....

Not really. The realforce tkl boards are very well built and have decent key caps to start with.

$300 for a realforce tkl is quite expensive.

I heard a rumor that Topre (Thorpe) is coming out with a 15 year anniversary "Keepin' it REALFORCE:  Sweet Cloud of Boobs" keyboard.
