Water transfer printing like the camo. Except the chrome. That's painted. Available in Japanese and English, fullsize and tenkeyless.
I like it. I wonder if it is for sale outside of Japan.

Not liking it at all. They need to do it for TKLs and do something with the key caps to match the case design. The black caps stand out like sore thumbs.

Does it look like I can read whatever language it's in?

And even with translate on, it says nothing about TKL boards...

At least they all look more tasteful than most of the Cherry G80/1 that had graphic case bodies... Filco should do a Kamui Kobayashi graphic uglier than the Michael Schumacher G81 LOL.

Do not want. If anything just do matt finish blacks with a nice grey or something. Keep it clean Filco!

Well, at least they are offering an option and not placing it in their main line.

I'm not excited either... but it just gave me an awesome idea!

Anyone know someone who has a CNC router that can cut granite???
You know you'd buy it.

That would be Legen "wait for it" dary by Ripster's "Weight Theorem: Build Quality is Directly Correlated To Weight of Keyboard" standard

In that case, we should probably just jump to depleted Uranium! I don't think the filco-style top case would work in stone, it would have to be thicker, or directly supported by the PCB.  It might be feasible (and by feasible, I mean totally ridiculous but technically possible) to put every key cluster(home cluster, arrow cluster, F9-12, etc...) on a separate "Island" pcb, and just connect them with cables, allowing each of the case-top dividers to be as thick as needed.

Back on topic, though, the "wood" filco reminds me of a background texture stolen from somebody's Geo Cities page.
