Help finding a keyboard

[FourK]

I'm looking for a mechanical keyboard, with potentially MX Browns (because i'm only going to use it for typing at work) i'd like it to have ninja keycaps, potentially a metal surface would be cool, and be full size, but I can't seem to find any that have RGB or LED backlighting or come in a metal shroud. 

I was considering forgoing the backlit and metal aspects and going for this:

The price online seems to be about $130-$170 AUD and that's about my price range.

Does anyone know of any full size keyboards in my price range (or more, up to maybe $200?) that do manage to fit my criteria?

This is contradictory.

This is an unrealistic expectation.   You can get metal face-plate for that price easily enough, but full metal cases are going to be expensive.

Why is it contradictory to have that key cap type with RGB/LED's? 

 

Sorry, yeah a faceplate is the word I was looking for instead of shroud.

You need a cap with transparent lettering to for a back light to serve any purpose.

You can have ninja caps on a keyboard a back lit keyboard but you won't see the back light except for a very small amount from between the keys.

In that case the Ducky you linked fits the bill. Another option would be a Filco Majestouch Ninja.

Yeah, I want it to have that small amount of light shining from the front of the keycaps. 

 

I didn't even realise that Ducky had a metal faceplate! The Filco keyboard is also great. Guess I'll have to pick between the two and give up on the lighting. Thanks for the recommendation

According to this:

I might be able to mod the Ducky to have working LED's, so that's what I bought
Thank you
