I am considering 2 keyboards:

This one I like, but it doesn't come in the white colour for the majestouch 3 (the white only comes in the older majestouch 2 version):

This one I like, but there is no white colour version:
https://www.realforce.co.jp/en/products/R3SD11/


what should I do? Should I get a keyboard that isn't perfect for me? Or should I wait and maybe they will release the version of the keyboard that I want?

Honestly if you really want a filco, I would reccomend getting a really used filco mj2, mainly because it probably means that the switches are broken in a lot, and broken in cherries pretty good.

If you really want the mj3 or the realforce, you could always paint the chassis white.

cherry blacks - unlubed - filmed and springswapped with tx 55g mediums - alu Plate | pretty happy with this, the blacks were cherry picked so they weren't that scratchy to begin with, but currently breaking them in, may lube them with a dry lube like ro59 or ptfe powder.

lubed with tribosys 3203 | like topre a lot, prefer it lubed but did make less tactile but that might have been a skill issue. probably will get more tactile over time as the domes age.

bad orange alps lol | definitely needs a restoration. planning on wax boiling them and maybe a replacement pcb because the board has only 2 key rollover apparently.

gateron yellows - lubed with 205g0 - 62g tx mediums - pc plate | probably my favourite keyboard already, feels super nice and sounds pretty good, it's got a great layout as well. probably gonna build this with mx browns, I feel like it would suit the board more.

stock with silent reds | Pretty cool looking board, the silent reds are actually good, they are smooth and I don't mind the mushiness (it's not even that mushy as well). the layout is pretty weird, but is useable. will probably mod this in the future. maybe a pcb and plate swap, change the keycaps to something dolch like, and also spring swap the springs in the silent reds.
