That iron isnt going to win any awards, but it will probably be enough to get the job done, I personally use a TS100 these days because I can power it off my LiPo Flight battery's in the field as well as off a laptop power brick. I still have my Weller station but it's seen decades of abuse by my dad before he gave it me, so i only use it when I'm at home with lots of big solder joints to do.
Get a decent tip cleaner those sponges are worthless and will cool the iron.[1]
Make sure your solder has good quality Flux core OR or you can buy some better solder / buy flux seperatly
I personally use this but you can get stuff cheaper
I can't stress this enough, If you have never soldered before, practice tinning wires/ soldering through hole connectors until your solder joints look neat and shiny and you feel happy, buying a couple of led's headers and protoboard will save you the pain of ruining your shiny new PCB kit.
Adafruit has some nice images to help compare good/bad solder.

Unicomp Model M?
Leopold FC980m (1800 layout)?
G80-3000?
You'd probably have a few more options if you went TKL + Numpad. Also these are all pre-builts, there are a few fullsize kits, but you are looking at a lot more money though if you went down that route.
Thinking about it, Varmilo have pretty good customer support, you might be able to contact them directly and see if they have or will do you an MX blue VA109Mac.
Alternatively you could buy a VA 109Mac, buy the blue switches, and mod it yourself or pay someone else to mod it.
