Akko appeals to the dessert lovers among us with their 3018DS Matcha Red Bean keyboard. With a novel green, white, and red color scheme, it is a unique-looking keyboard at pre-built pricing. Under the hood, however, are the extremely rare and new Gateron Pink or Orange switches.

For the sight-impaired? Very unfortunate looking?
 
More rust than red, it is unfortunate looking, particularly with that shade of green.
Yellow and black would appeal more.
 
Well at least legends look better in reality than in renders. The ones in renders looked like crap - uneven and blotchy, just compare capslock on renders with capslock in the photos made for review:

@VSG what's with the red bit on #3 key? I think you can also see it on the left side of F11.

Also, colors look way off from the renders. That sh*t wouldn't fly with GMK, but hey those kits cost $150+. I guess it might be due to the use of PBT instead of ABS, I seem to recall that ABS allowed more vibrant dyes to be used.

The red bits are from my end, I was testing something else and didn't realize until too late that I had strands on my hands that must have gotten in between the sides. Not Akko's fault!
