Catalog:Midnight Blue Sparkle Time Fedora

Midnight Blue Sparkle Time Fedora is a limited unique hat that was published in the avatar shop by  on June 21, 2013, as part of the Midnight Sale 2013 sale. It could have initially been purchased for 50,000 Robux with a stock of 100 copies. It is the fifth hat in the Sparkle Time Fedora series. As of July 1, 2021, it has been favorited 20,062 times.

Pre-release
In March 2013, a user by the name of uploaded a re-textured Blue Sparkle Time Fedora using the Sparkle Time Fedora mesh as a model and spammed it on the forums, mainly in hopes to get the retexture published, but it was never published. The model was created months before the Midnight Blue Sparkle Time Fedora (and years before the Sky Blue Sparkle Time Fedora) released and received some support from the forum community, reaching over 4,000 sales.

A Roblox social media representative indirectly hinted at the Midnight Blue Sparkle Time Fedora releasing in a Twitter post stating "The midnight-blue hat releasing in tonight's sale may or may not be what you think it is."

A few hours after this Twitter post, a leaked texture for an early version of the fedora named BlueLoafers uploaded by surfaced around the Let's Make a Deal subforum, alarming many users of the possibility of a Sparkle Time Fedora for the sale, and also leaving some unsure about the status of the fedora releasing or just being a troll act. This texture is different from the released one and bears more resemblance to the Sky Blue Sparkle Time Fedora.

Shortly after BlueLoafers was uploaded, another texture was uploaded for the fedora named TX_BlueSparkleTimeFedora which looks more midnight blue. This texture was used in the hat's final version.

Appearance
It is a midnight blue re-texture of the Sparkle Time Fedora. It is a fedora with the original mesh with a darkened blue color and a silver band around it. Shades of black can also be seen to fit with the midnight aesthetic, hence its name and color choice.

Criticism
Although Sparkle Time Fedora series variants' original prices became more expensive over the years, many users of the Let's Make a Deal subforum expected the original price to be 10,000 Robux like the previous series variants, but were disappointed when they realized it instead released with a price of 50,000 Robux. The price choice was criticized by some users for not giving the "poor side" of the community a chance.
