Wow, clear top MX blacks. Wake me up when Cherry does something actually interesting.
I mean, what do people think makes nixies so special? Heavy use over many years combined with unworn housing tooling is the working theory as far as I understand it. My guess with these repros is Cherry just used their regular MX black housings shot with transparent plastic to get that sweet sweet kustom money. Cannot wait to see people's complaints when they realize they've paid a huge premium for normal blacks.
