Looks like Ducky Zero TKL is finally coming. From [Computex 2013] Official Ducky Facebook.

Photoelectric · « **Reply #1 on:** Sat, 01 June 2013, 21:02:45 »

Now please, Ducky, announce a Zero Shine TKL with MX Clears! Or a TKL with PBT caps.

Ducky keeps on winning..

About time!

Hopefully we can get these in Australia, as almost nowhere sells QFR any more, and there aren't really any cheap quality TKL keyboards around.

A Ducky Zero Shine TKL would be ideal.

One with yellow backlighting and MX reds would be perfect!

Seems Ducky Zero Shine TKL is the most desired Ducky product of recent

MK.com just announced on their facebook that their current stock of Shine II's are their "end of life," and that they will no longer be receiving anymore. I guess we now await on more information for the Shine III and Zero Shine TKL.

Finally the real QFR killer

VesperSAINT · « **Reply #6 on:** Sun, 02 June 2013, 15:49:16 »

Hehehe. A lot of people only go for Costar built keyboards such as QFR and Filco's (Taiwan), which I can understand but I don't know why they'd disregard the Ducky's (China). Ducky's are awesome and and these will provide more features than the QFR's while also providing the same quality build and feel as Filco. I think these will definitely be awesome choice after we've got some reviews in from users here

The only thing that can "kill" QFR is $50 shipped on AMAZON. This is "not" that...

For me atleast, I much prefer cherry stabilizers and I've been wanting something cheap TKL for a while.

LOL, Ducky is no QFR killer. Especially as far as resale value goes. I mean, sure, if you want backlighting, Ducky is where it's at. But don't expect to resell that thing.

lightsout714 · « **Reply #10 on:** Sun, 02 June 2013, 19:31:42 »

I might be interested in one with clears if the price is right. Never owned a ducky before. Or a board with plate mounted cherry stabilizers for that matter.

Resale is iffy on ANY keyboard. I've seen people struggle to unload perfectly good Filco's at reasonable prices so it's really a matter of supply/demand.

You call that struggle? Two weeks?

TJ STILL hasn't sold his YotD. No, Filcos have no struggle in comparison.

He should have tried eBay and it would have been sold already.

Hoping this comes out with a reasonable price! Might consider this as my first mechanical keyboard

lightsout714 · « **Reply #15 on:** Sun, 02 June 2013, 22:19:32 »

Aren't the full size $99 on Newegg. So I would hope this would be sub 100 or am I crazy.

Photoelectric · « **Reply #16 on:** Sun, 02 June 2013, 22:21:13 »

I don't see TKL Shines being significantly cheaper than full sized ones. So perhaps there won't be much of a difference in price here too.

MechanicalKeyboards is selling the 108 Zero on Newegg; and it looks like they increased the prices slightly perhaps due to compensate for vendors costs.

That being said, if you compare the costs of the ABS 9087 and 9008 it is about a $6 difference (depending on switches).

So if the Zero 108 MX is around $80 I'd say the Zero 87 might be $75ish depending on switch type?

rowdy · « **Reply #18 on:** Mon, 03 June 2013, 00:22:13 »

FWIW PCCG lists Zero as $79 or $85 (depending on switch) and Zero Shine as $109 or $115. Both TK.

No, sir. This is the non-backlit Ducky Zero TKL keyboard.
