Keyboard: iKBC C87 - it's pretty much the same keyboard
Keycaps: as our friend @crash2bandicoot pointed out below, this is the link
Overwatch OEM ABS Keycap: AliExpress link - shipped from Taiwan
I believe the iKBC CD87 has a fixed USB cable and dual-level height adjustment feet while the KD87 has a detachable USB cable and single-level feet.
iKBC 87 Comes in white or black and you can get the RGB version to just turn it off or get the non-lit version
If money is an issue, the CoolerMaster PBT isn't worth the penny if for 10 less dollars I can have an IKBC F87 PBT or for 10 more dollars a Ducky One TKL PBT,
They have both a better quality build than the CoolerMaster PBT and the keycaps on the Ducky have a better printing method, which means that they are going to last longer.
I'm planning on replacing the keycaps of this keyboard https://www.amazon.com/Mechanical-Gaming-Keyboard-Cherry-Detachable/dp/B01MUBME0Q?th=1 with the keycaps of this https://www.massdrop.com/buy/magicforce-82-key-mechanical-keyboard. Could someone confirm that it would be possible?
Ducky One or IKBC C87
You sound more like a fanboy...

I can find some Ducky at $89 or $99

"Nicest... for the money" - - > clearly not
The MasterKeys Pro L costs $119 actually at Amazon. For the comparison, an IKBC F108 RGB is at $99, the stock keycaps are made in PBT (PBT doubleshot) and the build quality is approximately the same as Ducky
Another example, the CoolerMaster MK750 is a joke (made for ones you are die hard fans of Razer or Corsair but who don't want the best value for money). What makes it worth over a Ducky shine 6 or an IKBC MF108 RGB? Does it have an full CNC Aluminium case or doubleshot PBT keycaps?
Let's talk about the famous " Premium Aluminium plate"... The Pro L has a steel plate (like the Shine or MF) when otherwise the MK750 has an aluminium. This is such a downgrade but you know when people values aesthetic they can lower the production cost and raise the price
There's also the low end market, https://www.amazon.com/IKBC-KD87-BK-RD-Tenkeyless-Mechanical-Detachable/dp/B01N7T3Q2A
