MasticcccThese are backlit compatible since the legends are translucent. As you can tell from the pictures

erickongThis is unfortunately not true, learned this the hard way. I went ahead and ordered this based off reading your response about the translucent legends. White keycaps with black legends :/

kevin.adams3737Interesting response from customer service.
"Thanks for getting back to me with that information!
I've spoken with my colleagues, and from what we can see with the picture it appears as though the key caps are shine through and match up with what was advertised on the product run page. Would you mind elaborating a bit more on the reasons you think otherwise?
Hope to hear from you soon!
"
Am I crazy? Its definitely not shining through right!?

kevin.adams3737Pretty sure they're confused because half the keys(not from this set) are shine through. I'm following up internally.

kevin.adams3737I also ordered them because they were advertised as shine through. I also received white keycaps with black legends. My friend ordered the black korean set and his are actually translucent. Did anyone order black cyrilic so we can see if they're translucent or not? I don't know why these are made this way, but it's really annoying honestly. They only offered me a partial refund. I could send them back for a full refund but there's not really any options for these as it is, so I just have to suck it up I guess. Leaves a really bad taste, especially after waiting so long for these. I figured the one place I would actually get exactly what I ordered would be from Drop.

KPRepublic has been stocking these for a little while after this drop came up. I got them to check their warehouse and the white koreans are like this there too. It's just blatant false advertising at this point; Advertising backlighting compatability and then half of the options aren't. It doesn't even make sense why they would be made this way. Still wondering if any black cyrilics are out there.
