Well. the first thing I want to get out of the way is what switch type it has......White! I couldn't believe it when I depress the switch, there was a soft/subtle click. I took a pic and noted that it has a little appendage/dot on the right of each switch....

With that out of the way, the all yellow Ducky MX White I'd gotten comes with the basic wire key cap puller, a black USB cable (shame on you Ducky, it should have been yellow!) and red WASD keys.......nothing else.

For those hoping that the etched legends would be easily legible even with LED off will be disappointed. It is almost 'ninja' looking. legends are hardly visible even with LED on.....still I like it, it's gonna force me to learn to NOT look at the keys when I type.

This is with my room darkened....

Ooo! The first fully Cherry White Ducky keyboard I've seen! Not only that, it's all yellow and beautiful! Congrats on your awesome keyboard, bro! I'll look forward to reading about your impressions on it. Jelly

Holy crap a Ducky board with full Whites!

Do all the switches click equally? Or do some stick?

Can you take a picture of the under side of the keycap? Is it thick PBT?

Sure, here's a pic, I'm comparing it with a keycap from my YOTS....looks like thick PBT to me, or am I wrong?

i just received an email back from ncixus and their system does not show any whites coming in from any of their suppliers

kind of crazy where we just saw where somebody at least physically went there and grabbed on

just thought everyone might want to know at least for the whites and fyi...........

Red LEDs under the space bar - can you change them to yellow?

Its RGB same as the Shine 3 so yeah I guess if you play around with it you can get yellow, I think it was all yellow before I started messing around with it

Just FYI, I'm in Asia, perhaps that explains why I can get the White version......the local distributor brought in only tem Cherry White boards, I'm pretty sure I was the first to grab one. I believe Jokrik has one reserved as well....

I'm getting MX blacks, but with engraved keycaps (not that it makes much of a difference, apparently).

Nice.. Those yellow engraved caps above look great!
Hope the yellow quickly becomes more widely distributed.. If it's successful enough it may encourage mire makes to create cool colour themes alike

Anything wrong with the yellow ones that are on there?

Something yellow and translucent, perhaps? Or, next best, orange and translucent?
