Filco Nina MX Blue?

[Czar]

Anyone know if these are in production or will be stocked on amazon or keyboardco anytime soon? I'm dying to get it.

Did they make them? That would be a terrible ninja with all that noise.

Here is Filco with blues for $159. Not Ninja though:

You could always buy a standard Filco w/ Blues and then add some ninja caps. People seem to buy/sell/trade those caps in the marketplace quite often.

But you wouldn get the super 1337 all black filco label on the board =P I kinda fell into the whole ninja thing also when I got my first board.

I ended up swaping the out the keycaps anyways so it didnt matter... like some people mentioned just get the normal one if possible if you know if you are going to swap out the keys. I would rather get PBT ninja style keycaps if possible.

Hey all. I decided to email them about the keyboard and if amazon will be in stock or if theres another way to buy them. They replied with the following:

Dear Valued Customer,
 
Thank you very much for your enquiry.
 
Yes, only Amazon.com is carrying our product line within the US.
 
NINJA with blue switches are now on the way to US Amazon warehouse.
We expect them to be available in 8-10 weeks depending on the vessels.
 
If you are in a hurry wanting them, we could arrange from Japan where stocked,
however it would cost you an extra shipping freight as well as banking fees in JPY.

Great. I was wanting a ninja tenkeyless with MX blues, but I'm already going with the Leopold.

Just wait. The Filco is a good keyboard but it's not worth $232. You could get 2 Leopolds for that price.
