My Kingdom for Smooth ABS SA Keycaps
Every time I build a new keyboard, I go hunting for keycaps. And every time I go hunting, it eventually devolves into a desperate search for SA (or equivalent) profile keycaps with a smooth finish. SA is the ultimate profile, IMHO, and they're relatively hard to come by. Signature Plastics, which is where a lot of SA sets come from like the T0mb3ry SA Carbon set (they might actually hold the trademark on the SA profile if I'm not mistaken), is reportedly going through some management/ownership struggles (last I heard, they're looking for new ownership), and along with apparently the rest of the industry, they seem to be neglecting this superior keycap profile in their own stocks. If you order direct from them, they have a couple themed sets in stock (maybe), but generally you can have any color you want, as long as it's black or white. Drop carries a fair number of MT3 profile sets, which are very similar to SA. But just like SP's SA-P profile, they're made with a different...

There is a compatibilly list for k-boards: http://www.maxkeyboard.com/max-universal-cherry-mx-translucent-clear-black-full-keycap-set-front-side-print.html
Keycaps layouts and size: http://www.maxkeyboard.com/mechanical-keycap-layout-and-size-chart.html
Mine Ducky Shine 2/3/4 k-boards don't use the same keycaps size like lets say Corsair K70 Vengeance on R1(ctrl,win, alt + spacebar keycaps).
My "win keycap" (+ alt, ctrl keycaps) is 1x1.25 in size on the Ducky Shine k-boards and on the Corsair K70 V the "win keycap" is 1x1 size.
Even the "Spacebar" is not the same size, Ducky Shine 2/3/4 uses 1x6.25 Spacebars, Corsair K70 V uses 1x6.5 Spacebars.
Here in Sweden we don't have the "ANSI layout" on yours k-boards, we have the "ISO/Nordic layout".
Even the "ISO/Nordic layout" and the "ISO/English layout" are not the same, we have this 3 letters "Å", "Ö" and "Ä", you don't have these 3 letters in UK/US.
You can use a ANSI keycaps set on a ISO k-board but ANSI Enter + left Shift don't fit on the ISO k-board. + you don't get/be missin the 3 letters "Å", "Ä" and "Ö" on the keycaps.
You can also use a ISO keycaps set on a ANSI k-board but ISO big Enter + left Shift don't fit on the ANSI k-board.
I have 3 ANSI k-boards so I can use ANSI keycaps sets.
The White Ducky Shine 2 k-board is a ISO/Nordic layout with keycools terrible/ugly letters on the keycaps, ANSI rainbow keycaps set + Duckys pink ISO keycaps like the big Enter , left Shift and some more.
Just saw the model is on that list you provided, so it looks like they will work. Looking at the pictures of the keys provided, it looks like it actually comes with both sizes of "special" keys.
Yes you're right, I looked in my box (I bought this keycaps set on Massdrop last year) after I had replying to you.
I have also 2 different ISO big Enter keycaps in my box. The orange keycap not included in the Max box.
