Criticism[]
This sale has sparked criticism in the community due to shorter timers than usual, long delays between waves, the lack of limited items, and very little classic items other than the Bighead and the Workclock set. In addition, the Emerald Valk Shades originally had a 12-hour timer, but due to an unknown reason the timer was removed and the item was kept available. It was later put off-sale. Compared to other sales, Roblox only released one expensive accessory for the Bighead, and for a short period of time it was mistakenly placed on a four-hour rental. Many players in the community believe new limiteds will no longer be produced due to the colored face series this sale not being limited, whereas in other sales the colored face series usually starts off as a LimitedU. A commonly requested item that didn't go back on-sale was the Frenemy.
