Anything labeled with the "Rthro" tag on the catalog is considered as Rthro.

As said before, it's just a new generation of avatars for the sole purpose of allowing users to customize their character more. People dislike it due to online dating stereotypes (most online daters i know actually use R6 with the original blocky body).

This is like the third time that the community has hated something relating to new body parts for avatars. Back when hats were first being created in 2007, Roblox staff showed a 3D model render of a "new character concept", which looked more like a LEGO minifigure. The community did not like it, so they just focused on hats to release classics like the Sombrero and the first Banded Top Hats.

About two years later, they started to demo "Robloxian 2.0" and then released a bunch of bundles such as the original Skeleton and the Superhero, to name a few. After that, around 2011 or 2012 they released the 3.0 bundles: Man and Woman. When all of these were released, the majority of the older community disliked it and vowed to never wear it or instead they would just quit the site altogether. Fast forward to today, where Rthro has been released and there was the exact same backlash from the older audience who are now used to the older bundle designs.
