I thought I knew most stuff about mech keyboards (have been using them since the 1970s when all KBs were mechanical). But I guess I don't know about PBT or PTB (both names are in the post -- one must be a typo), and how pudding comes into the picture. Thought it does sound tasty. Anyway might get one of these if I can learn what a PBT is or at least what flavor of pudding.
EDIT OK I read the Amazon page details I think I understand the keycap thing and it's just a visual "coolness" thing, so OK but not essential I'd say. Meanwhile some of the neg reviews are concerning, including some details of keys not "feeling" right due to poor choices in design or manufacturing. The reason you get things like this is for the "feel" mostly, or at least I do. You want a consistent quality solid feel throughout. Normally I'll dismiss a few neg reviews but several seem to point to the same weakness, and since this is still close to a $100 KB I'll probably pass on this one, since I probably shouldn't have any puddin' anyway.

The original keycaps on this KB are way more premium feeling and feel better (to me).
All that being said, I use the PBT keycaps because I want the unicorn rainbow vomit as many places as I can regardless of how good it feels to type with the original keycaps.
The PBT keycaps look amazing with RGB.
SteelSeries Apex Keyboard with PBT keycaps.
That said, the build quality felt nice.
