I have not written my review of this yet. I put it together (reciting from memory, sorry...) with what looks like 4 pieces and a 4-6 screws? I got it on sale. I got the green one. There are 3 or more that I would choose from. The 3 pin thing is the main drawback for me. 5 pin or something better. The theory would be that typing with switches off the plate would make a person's fingers tired faster. There are a lot of people who might be typing on keyboards in the world. Meaning that light springs or heavy springs might give a counter-intuitive answer in relation to finger strength of the user and "typing off the plate". I'm running Holy Pandas (regs) and Cherry MX Silent Red for the modifiers and WASD. Again, I put it together super fast. One would imagine that assembly should not scratch the paint, eh? I'll simply put in 4 more Pandas at some point. Meaning you would be tasked with screwing in 4 or 6 or whatever of screws without scratching of "your assembly". I have probably (what?) 5-6 choices of worthy keysets for the keyboard. Being the green model, I chose that over a red case for the sake being traditional towards the "Japanese". I have the Red Samurais, the Avatar IV (Tai-Hao), the Jasmine DCX, and a few blue mixes. Pardon my grammar. I would give this keyboard 5 stars without putting much thought into it. I come from an orientation where I don't always feel like "knocking on wood". Etc. The lighting, in my opinion, gets an automatic "5 stars or more" because the RGB conversation is almost a "fake sell" as the most tired conversation in all of computer history. lol What did I miss? (edit: I don't measure macro capability all the time if the keyboard is TKL or "higher". I'm sure at least one person understands what my meaning is.)

Pro tip: If you just want to change the color of your current keyboard with a new case, look for a local cerakote shop and pick any color you like. You'll save money too.

Any chance we'll ever see the pastel colours from the High Profile CTRL available in the low profile model? If I could get the arctic colour in low profile I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

It is a beautiful case but what good is it if you need to mount a custom pcb on it? I hope they will release a valid pcb soon at a reasonable price... If not, is it only dedicated to people who bought the high profile and want to change their case? i dont know lol, i wish buy this case, btw at moment is useless without a custom unreleased pcb.

Any chance we could see pictures comparing silvery to the regular space gray? Also can we expect a high profile variant any time soon?
