Filco Zero keysets (Alps)

I'm looking for advice from Filco Zero owners on what some current options are. I'm getting one that has a bit of shine on the caps, so I'd like to replace them eventually. My preference is for black with printed legends, just like the stock keys. Though I'm flexible and something like a Dolch looks okay.

This is what I've come up with, currently available that I know of:

Tai Hao double shot ABS- mechanicalkeyboards.com, Massdrop
"Vintage" (are they new old stock they found?) ABS keycaps - mechanicalkeyboards.com - unsure if they sell these separate from the KBP V80

Are there any vintage Alps boards that wouldn't cost a fortune that would be able to serve as a complete donor? I am guessing the answer is a resounding no. I see that SGI Granite (some Dell AT101W) can serve as partial donors, but then you're left with mismatches with the Filco stock caps.

Unknown ETA:

Matias PBT- they have been saying for a year or two that they'd be coming.
