This is gonna be a brag blog. Well to those that already owns a mech keyboard, you all know how it feels 
I finally got myself one of the most awesome keyboard known to mankind, the Filco Majestouch 2 with BLUE switches!
Yayayayayay! I'm so happy like a little child right now as I'm typing this blog on my new lovely keyboard. Never would I thought I would be able to find a Filco in a nearby store in my city :3
Feels so great and is loud and clicky but I love it! Gaming on scbw feels so great, sounds like I'm banging away at 300-400++ apm~
I was actually looking for a Razer BlackWidow, then while I was at that shop, I saw this keyboard right there! :3 So glad I chose this~~~~ :3
wawawawawawawawa

|
Yes, I should do that...Sorry, to excited.

Congrats. Just got my Leopold with mx blacks in the mail today, feels awesome compared to all my old rubber dome's.
Really like how solidly the keyboard is built, I'm sure the Filco is very similar (same designer)

Proud owner here of the first majestouch, also with blue switches.
You're almost right about it being one of the most awesome keyboards known to man, except that it is actually the #1 most amazing radical gnarly gosu bestial keyboard probably ever made. Best thing I've ever bought for my PC.
You've made it my friend. Congrats.
|
Nice yo! They keyboard looks very sexy and I'd be really excited too! PSST UPDATE US WITH MORE pictures and better quality!! ^^
|
Just a question,why did you go for blue switches?
|
My Zowie Celeritas is supposed to arrive tomorrow, I'm really really excited about it.
Congrats

Hopefully for the same reason I did: it makes you feel like a fucking boss when you're spamming at the start of a game. ;D.

Nice keyboard, I got a roswell rk-9000 ive heard its super similar to a filco, im not sure if they even make them anymore but I got blue switches as well.
It takes awhile to get used to the double tap thing on blue switches but I love the feel of them.
|
nice. i have a brown filco. what store did you buy it from?
|
I have a Filco 104 with Blues and I love it. I've also got a limited edition Linear R Filco tenkeyless with Cherry Reds in the mail. Also ordered some engraved PBT keycaps to go with it. Can't wait 'til it all gets here!

Got a Filco M.2 with brown switches. Didn't notice much of a difference when I switched from cheap rubber dome to the Majestouch, but after 2 weeks I returned home and now I'm typing on same old rubbers, and it feels awful, hahahaha. Have fun with the new board, yo. ;D

Looks so plain... but looks can be deceiving How much was it??? I bet it click clacks like a dream, so jelly.

Coz I like the sound and the tactile feedback.  And yes, feels gosu when playing Starcraft1/2
Btw, Boxer uses blue switches as well, though this was not the reason I chose it.

Erm, it was MYR 450, about USD148...

I like the PBT keycaps, but I hate the tenkeyless keyboards, I use the numpad to type the majority of my numbers with (Anything with more than 2 numbers in a row I'll go to the numpad)
I got a blackwidow for christmas, I'm quite happy with my brother buying it for me, since he's got brown switches and I prefer by far the blue ones.

I want exactly that keyboard man! But it is so hard to get in Europe, you kinda have to import it and it is also very expensive...150 Euro plus the import costs...
|
Wait, what are the distinctions between the switch types (colors), again? Keyboard looks sweet by the way :D

Where did you order your black on black PBT keycaps? I've been look all over and I don't want to really participate in group-buys. Not that I don't trust people on GeekHack who do it, but their price isn't as good as the lowest price that I've seen, it's just that they aren't in stock at the moment.

Wow $45 + shipping for a Filco?? That's a crazy good deal if the seller is reliable.

Just got mine and they're awesome :D Wasn't too hard to do it all either. I was a bit worried about the keys with stabilizers as it looked/sounded a bit tricky and dangerous but it was actually really easy. The keys have a really nice textured feel to them, definitely think I prefer them over the standard Filco caps!

So... I got my filco the other day.. It suddenly disconnected while I was playing, and now it doesnt work, on ANY computer.. After 1 day :/
