Alright guys, I`ve been wanting a ducky for a while and i`ve finally decided to get one. I'm going with the shine 3 cherry browns because they are my favourites. Now, for the backlight colour, i'm not sure between the blue or the magenta. Apparently the magenta is actually pink but that doesn't bother me. I just am not able to make up my mind and need some convincing.

 

also, maybe, MAYBE i might get the ducky purple keycaps and replace either all or just a couple.

 

here are a few pics to help

If you like the purple LED I would go for that. I personally would avoid blue LED lights because it is supposedly more harmful to the eyes. I am not sure if that is the case with purple lights.
