ISO TKL keyboards? (lemmy.world)

Hi fediverse.

I am searching for an ISO TKL barebones kit, and so far have come up short. I have found the following: nuphy gem80 (which is out of production and they confirm that a new batch is not in plans). Evo80, which seems to be a bit pricier and out of stock. Luminkey80, seems to not support nkey rollover, so I might be better off using my Model M keyboard.

Am I correct that no keyboard with modern comforts like proper layer dampening, hotswap, gasket mount exist in ISO and in TKL?

EDIT: I already own keychron and ducky, but I would like to have a keyboard where it ticks all the boxes. Like the ones I made as examples in the beginning (gem80, evo80, luminkey80)

Thank you in advance.

EDIT 2: I chose a Neo80 from monacokeys. Thank you for the dialogue, guys!

@Antaeus the Neo80 can be built with ISO layout and should tick all boxes except RGB.

Good thing I don’t care much about RGB. I hope it’s VIA. Compatible.

Thanks!
