So I have been looking around for a new keyboard, but I just cant seem to find any good, solid and flashy keyboard.

 

I have taken a look at ducky keyboards, and I have to say that they are amazing.

 

My old keyboard I used the space-bar a bit too much :P and it cracked in half, also its Chiclet.

 

My personal needs are: Cherry mx Blue, has to be tenkeyless, has to have a green backlit and has to feel solid.

 

Challenge Enough?

You mentioned you've looked into Ducky, then why not a Ducky Shine 3 TKL?

 

Should fit the specifications you've mentioned.

 

Because where I live its all out of stock, the only thing that is there is brown, but I need blues because of tactile feedback.

If you had the time I would love if you could find a place in Canada who are selling that keyboard.

Brows have the same tactical feedback... The only difference is that they are queiter.

Browns and blues actually feel pretty different. Browns are a bit lighter and the bump is a bit less pronounced. I personally enjoy typing on both, but blues just feel super "crisp" to me.

 

On topic though, Ducky is a pretty popular choice. You can choose from pretty much any switch/backlight combination and the build quality is pretty nice. I don't own a Ducky myself, but I have a friend who enjoys his even more than his Filco(both CherryMX Black).
