The Bluesteel series is Roblox's longest-running recolor texture: a dark-blue-and-gold retexture (a retexture keeps an existing item's 3D shape and swaps the picture painted onto it) that the platform has applied to hats and gear on and off since 2007. Ten Limiteds carry the finish today (a Limited is an item Roblox no longer sells, with a fixed number of copies that players resell and trade), from a 2007 debut through a cluster of releases in 2015 and 2016. Trader consensus, meaning the rough price experienced traders agree an item is worth, ranks them in an order that looks nothing like their RAP (Recent Average Price, Roblox's running average of an item's recent sale prices).
Quick answer: Bluesteel is a navy-and-gold finish Roblox stamped onto ten different Limiteds between October 2007 (The Bluesteel Bathelm) and August 2016 (the Bluesteel Bling $$ Necklace). The Domino Crown has the highest RAP, but traders value the 119-copy Bling Necklace and the 150-copy Fedora above it.

What is the Bluesteel series? A texture
Bluesteel is a texture, a dark navy base with gold trim meant to look like galvanized steel, that Roblox has reapplied to existing hat and gear shapes across almost a decade. Community-documented catalog history credits The Bluesteel Bathelm as the material's debut, first sold in October 2007 for 1,031 Robux and tied to that year's costume-themed promotions, before it went Limited in 2010. More items eventually carried the finish than any other recolor line on the platform, spread across hats, a necklace, a pair of shades, a katana, and even a piece of gear.
That makes Bluesteel closer in spirit to a franchise. Where a series like Dominus or Korblox tells one continuous story, Bluesteel is a recurring costume Roblox pulled out for sales and gifts across a decade, stamped onto whichever base item made sense at the time.
When were the Bluesteel items released? Two waves across nine years
The finish shows up in two distinct waves. The first runs from 2007 to 2012, when Roblox used it mostly as a promotional gift texture. The Bluesteel Viking Helm of Infinite Pillage followed the Bathelm in March 2008, reportedly bundled into a "Bluesteel Gift of Long Years" rather than sold outright. The Bluesteel Domino Crown came next, starting out as part of an Epic Builder gift around December 2011 before Roblox made it tradeable during the Labor Day Sale in August 2013. The Bluesteel Sombrero and the Bluesteel Alterer of Destiny gear piece both landed in 2012, and the Bluesteel Fedora closed out that stretch as a Black Friday 2012 exclusive that reportedly sold through its full run within minutes.
Then the line went quiet for two and a half years before a second, tighter wave hit in 2015 and 2016. The Bluesteel Katana arrived in April 2015, the Bluesteel Bucket that June (going Limited during the President's Day Sale the following February), Tasteless Bluesteel Shades in February 2016, and the Bluesteel Bling $$ Necklace that August, sold for 24 hours during a Bling promotion. No official Bluesteel item has launched since 2016, though independent UGC creators (UGC means user-generated content, items made by players rather than by Roblox) have made tribute pieces using the same color scheme in the years since. More on those below.
Every Bluesteel Limited, ranked by trader value
The table below orders all ten official Bluesteel Limiteds by trader consensus street value, since several of these items trade so rarely that RAP lags noticeably behind what buyers actually pay. Copies is how many of the item exist across all player inventories. RAP and copy counts are pulled live from our items database as of this run.
| Item | Base family | Released | Copies | Live RAP |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bluesteel Bling $$ Necklace | Bling | Aug 2016 | 119 | 377,053 |
| Bluesteel Fedora | Fedora | Nov 2012 | 150 | 883,436 |
| Bluesteel Domino Crown | Domino Crown | Dec 2011 | 420 | 1,086,250 |

Why does trader value flip the RAP order? Supply and the base item's name
Look at the top three and the mismatch jumps out. The Domino Crown carries the highest RAP of the whole family at over 1 million, yet trader consensus puts it third behind the Fedora and the Bling Necklace. The Necklace sits fourth in raw RAP but tops the consensus ranking by a wide margin.
The explanation is supply and what each base item means to collectors. The Necklace has the smallest mint of the entire series at 119 copies (the mint is the number of copies ever created), and it carries the Bling name, already one of Roblox's most sought-after gem necklaces before the recolor (a gem is a scarce, high-value Limited). A market that thin barely trades, so its RAP reflects whatever handful of sales happened to go through, which can sit far from what a buyer would need to pay today. The Fedora, at 150 copies, rides the same effect. It is a Sparkle Time Fedora retexture, and the Fedora name alone commands a premium that raw sale history undercounts. The Domino Crown has more than triple the Necklace's supply, so it changes hands more often and its RAP tracks reality more closely, but that liquidity is exactly why traders will not pay as steep a premium over it. RAP is a smoothed average of actual sales, and it shows its limits fastest on the thinnest markets.
Is Bluesteel still being made? Only by UGC creators
No official Bluesteel Limited has launched since the Bling Necklace in 2016. What has appeared since are independent UGC creator tributes: pieces like a Bluesteel-textured top hat, business fedora, or pair of headphones, made by third-party UGC groups paying homage to the look. These are separate creations, and collectors should treat them as fan tributes outside the original ten-item family in the table above.
Collector's outlook: a closed set split between thin gems and liquid pieces
The core Bluesteel lineup is a closed set: ten items, no new releases in nearly a decade, and a real split between the thin, high-consensus gems (the Necklace and Fedora especially) and the higher-supply pieces like the Viking Helm and Katana that trade closer to their RAP. That split is the whole story for anyone weighing a position here. The thin end of the family rewards patience, since a real buyer at consensus price can take a while to show up. The high-supply end is easier to move but carries a lower ceiling. This is not financial advice, and any decade-old Limited carries liquidity risk (the risk that you cannot sell when you want to) no matter how well-known the recolor is.
If you want to compare Bluesteel pieces against the rest of the market, you can screen supply and RAP side by side on the items leaderboard, or watch listings move in real time on the deal feed.

FAQ
What is the Bluesteel series in Roblox?
Bluesteel is a dark-blue-and-gold recolor texture Roblox applied to various hats and one piece of gear between 2007 and 2016. Ten items carry the finish, more than any other recolor line on the platform, spanning bases as different as a bathelm, a viking helm, a fedora, and a necklace.
Which Bluesteel item is the oldest?
The Bluesteel Bathelm, first sold in October 2007 for 1,031 Robux. It is the material's debut item and the oldest Limited in the family by five months over the Viking Helm.
Which Bluesteel item is the most valuable?
By raw RAP, the Bluesteel Domino Crown ranks highest at 1,086,250. By trader consensus, the Bluesteel Bling $$ Necklace and Bluesteel Fedora both rank above it, since their much smaller supply means RAP lags further behind what buyers actually pay.
Is Bluesteel still being made?
No official Bluesteel Limited has launched since 2016. Newer Bluesteel-styled items on the catalog come from independent UGC creators making tribute pieces.
How many copies of each Bluesteel item exist?
Supply ranges enormously across the family, from 119 copies of the Bling $$ Necklace up to over 20,000 copies of the Viking Helm of Infinite Pillage. That gap in supply is the main reason the group's RAP and consensus values disagree so sharply.
What is the newest Bluesteel item?
The Bluesteel Bling $$ Necklace, sold for 24 hours in August 2016 during a Bling promotion. Only 119 copies exist, and it tops the family by trader consensus despite a RAP of 377,053.
Which Bluesteel item is the rarest?
The Bluesteel Bling $$ Necklace at 119 copies, followed by the Bluesteel Fedora at 150. The Fedora was a Black Friday 2012 exclusive that reportedly sold out within minutes.
Is the Bluesteel Bling $$ Necklace part of the Bling series too?
Yes. It belongs to both families: it is a 2016 Bluesteel recolor of the Bling $$ Necklace, and our Bling series history covers it alongside the original.
