Okay, thanks. How about custom keycaps? Is the keyboard compatible with most custom keycaps?

Nope, it is quite well known that CM Storm and some Filco MJ2 are having the arrow keys offset problem
Though, also as stated, it should not affect the use of the keyboard. Infact nonpicky ppl should probably won't realize bout it.

I thought that isn't something that would affect the usage or durability of the board, unlike the build quality *coughrazercough* have tho..

cant wait for my ducky.. should be here today~~

87U? A wild richfag spotted...

Hmm, should I wait for Leopold FC700R instead?

just go ahead with whatever you interested.
It is useless to wait for the "next" kb as you will eventually get them all...

Waaah, so rich ah you can collect all? lol Anyway, thanks for the help guys. Imma buy the keyboard this week. And also how come Cex's price so cheap?

How much does CEX sell their Rapid and FILCOs?

in this neopoly world, sometime isn't a thing cheap, but others expensive...
also, it is normal that most of us here are having more than one kb...

Btw guys, vortex (kbt) are launching metal keycaps... Potential cheap metal keycaps for mass?

Still in testing phase.
Keycaps are Aluminum type.

I only know the price for the Rapids. RM238 for blue, black, and brown. RM290 for red. I think it's quite cheap compared to the other sellers. Or is it just me?

oh great, it really consider cheap. Can even rival Taiwan's price...
The only cheaper are in USA when got offer, below 70usd

Aaah, good good. Haiyaa, everything's cheaper in the US of A. Is there anything that is NOT cheap there...

Healthcare insurance

On a serious note, that are pretty cheap in Malaysia context

Time to buy some to put into my Metal casings.
Currently I have more empty shells (planned) and keycaps more than i have keyboards

the keyboard has arrived at my place, typing on it now, feels so good.. like the color scheme too.. no regrets ! huaa~~

What are those metal casings and shells?

i've got the keyboard from China......

the key position are extremely awkward, but it actually actuation the 104 keys ANSI key when I press the keys in the boards, like when I press the A key in the keyboard, it actually is a Q, the W is Z, the ; is M, the ! is /, etc. so I touch type on it just felt like an normal arrangement. the keys actuation are really shallow, like 1 or 2 mm is enough to register a key, force I do not have any thing to measure the weight force, but it is lighter than the red switch from Leopold, the key caps are lower than the Filco's, I thought it would be like the cherry's original's, so I try to place 3 key from the keypad that is now cycling to me now, the R2 line 123 pn the V B N key, but they are not same height, so I replace them with my Steelseries' ABS, most of the characters and ,./;'][\=-` place are exact the same, the shift and enter are different, the backspace are irreplaceable, the ctrl and alt are much bigger because of lack of Window key, 1988 there is not that common I think, the space bar are about 40% longer than the Chinese d***... i mean Filco's space bar. The home, delete, page up/dwn, insert all work same as the normal keyboards, the Num Lock jis Verr num, COOOL!!! escape are size of ALT key. there is a key beside the left shift, (\) key, and the left shift are size of Fn key of the Steelseries.
WOW will upload photo soon!
