Roblox's Egg Hunt 2010 (officially Eggstravaganza 2010) is the only egg hunt where the rarest prizes came from a building contest instead of a scavenger hunt. Roblox ran a 48-hour contest around the classic game Crossroads and paid out five different eggs based on the rating a submitted build earned, and the top tier of that ladder, Royal Agate Egg of Beautiful Dreams, now carries a live RAP over 436,000 Robux off just 99 copies.
What Was Egg Hunt 2010?
Egg Hunt 2010 opened on April 2, 2010, Roblox's second annual egg hunt after 2008's Eggstravaganza. It didn't last long in its original form. Player traffic collecting eggs overloaded Roblox's servers, and the event shut down early on April 4. As an apology, Roblox gave away a free item called Golden Egg Beaters in the marketplace for several days while the hunt was paused. The event picked back up that July, reopening on July 21 with a fresh batch of eggs added to the hunt before closing for good on July 26.
That two-part structure, a false-start spring wave and a longer summer wave, makes 2010 an odd year in the franchise's history. It's also largely overshadowed today by what happened alongside it that same April: a linked developer contest that produced the family's most valuable prizes.
The Crossroads Improvement Project: A Contest, Not a Hunt
While the main egg hunt was scattering eggs across the platform, Roblox ran a separate contest tied to Crossroads, one of the site's earliest and best-known classic games. Entrants had roughly 48 hours to build improvements to the game, and their submissions were rated by the community. Instead of cash or Robux, the prizes were egg-themed Limiteds, timed to Easter, handed out based on which rating threshold a build cleared.
That's a genuinely different distribution model from a normal egg hunt. Nobody found these eggs sitting in a game world or timed a mechanic to grab one. You earned them by submitting a build that scored well enough, which means the float on the top tiers is set entirely by how many entries actually cleared each bar, not by how many players happened to log in during a given hour. All five items below entered our items database with the same April 1, 2010 catalog timestamp, confirming they were minted together as a single contest-prize batch.
The Contest Egg Lineup
The table below orders the five contest eggs by trader consensus street value. On the two scarcest items, consensus tracks meaningfully above RAP, so RAP alone understates what a buyer would actually have to pay.
| Egg | Rating Tier Required | Live RAP | Copies |
|---|---|---|---|
| Royal Agate Egg of Beautiful Dreams | 1,900+ rating | 436,683 | 99 |
| Arborist's Verdant Egg of Leafyness | 1,650+ rating | 115,708 | 159 |
| Violently Pink Egg of Violent Opinions | 80%+ voting accuracy | 2,185 | 5,688 |
| Duskeye Egg of the Crossroads | 1,450+ rating | 1,502 | 5,051 |
| Explosive Egg of Kaboom! | General hunt prize | 300 | 57,132 |
Royal Agate and Arborist's Verdant sit in an entirely different tier from the other three, both in RAP and in copy count. Fewer than 260 copies exist between them, against thousands for the lower tiers and over 57,000 for Explosive Egg of Kaboom, which functioned more like a general participation prize from the broader hunt than a contest reward. That gap in supply, not any difference in artwork or hype, is what separates a four-figure egg from a six-figure one in this family.
Why the Top Two Eggs Trade Above RAP
RAP is an exponentially smoothed average of a Limited's actual sale history, and that math has a known weak spot: items that barely trade. Royal Agate and Arborist's Verdant, at 99 and 159 copies after sixteen years of mostly patient long-term holders, land squarely in that weak spot. A single sale can move RAP by a tenth of the gap between the old price and the new one, so a thin market's RAP can sit well behind what a determined buyer would actually have to offer today.
That's exactly the pattern here. Trader consensus prices both eggs above their live RAP, and the gap is especially wide on Arborist's Verdant, where consensus runs multiples above the RAP figure rather than a modest premium. Royal Agate's gap is smaller in percentage terms but still real. Neither number is wrong exactly; RAP tells you what changed hands last, while consensus reflects what the current pool of interested buyers and sellers actually think the item is worth right now. On a 99-copy item that might trade twice a year, those two numbers can drift apart for a long stretch before a sale drags RAP back in line.
What Drives the Premium on 2010 Contest Eggs
A few things stack together here. First, the distribution mechanic itself: these weren't sold and can't be re-earned, since the Crossroads Improvement Project Contest closed in April 2010 and never ran again. Second, age. Every item in this family predates the current hat-dominated Limited market by years, back when gear and contest prizes made up a much bigger share of what traded. Third, and most direct, is copy count. Royal Agate and Arborist's Verdant simply have very few builders who cleared the top rating thresholds, and that ceiling was fixed the moment the contest closed. Nobody is adding new copies to either pool.
Compare that to Explosive Egg of Kaboom, which came from the wider hunt rather than the contest ladder and ended up with over 57,000 copies. Same event window, same egg theme, completely different scarcity profile, and the RAP gap between it and Royal Agate reflects that directly.
A Collector's Outlook
For a trader looking at founding-era Classic Limiteds, the Crossroads contest eggs are a genuinely different story from a normal seasonal hunt item: earned through a skill-and-luck contest rather than simple participation, with a hard supply cap set in a single week in 2010. That combination tends to appeal to buyers building a long-horizon position in scarce, story-rich pieces rather than traders looking for a quick flip. The tradeoff is liquidity. A 99-copy item that mostly sits in patient hands can take a long time to find a willing seller at a fair price, and the wide RAP-to-consensus gap on these two eggs means a quoted RAP figure should be treated as a floor reference, not a target. This isn't financial advice, and thin markets like this one carry real execution risk even when the item's history is well documented.
Anyone comparing this family against other classic-era grails, including the Eggstravaganza 2008 lineup or the Egg Hunt 2013 hatching eggs, can screen live positions on the items leaderboard or watch for underpriced listings on the deal feed.
FAQ
What was Egg Hunt 2010?
Egg Hunt 2010, also called Eggstravaganza 2010, was Roblox's second annual egg hunt. It opened April 2, 2010, was cut short on April 4 after player traffic overloaded Roblox's servers, and resumed with new eggs from July 21 to July 26, 2010.
What was the Crossroads Improvement Project Contest?
It was a roughly 48-hour building contest tied to Crossroads, one of Roblox's earliest classic games, held alongside the main 2010 egg hunt. Instead of Robux, winners received egg-themed Limiteds based on the community rating their submitted build earned, with higher-rated builds unlocking rarer eggs.
Which egg from the contest is the most valuable?
Royal Agate Egg of Beautiful Dreams, awarded for a rating of 1,900 or higher, carries the highest live RAP in the family at over 436,000 Robux across just 99 copies. Trader consensus prices it even higher than that RAP figure.
Why does Arborist's Verdant Egg trade so far above its RAP?
It's a 159-copy item that rarely sells, and RAP is a smoothed average of past sales rather than a live quote. With so few transactions to smooth over, one or two sales at any price can leave RAP lagging well behind what current buyers and sellers actually treat as fair value.
Can you still earn one of these eggs today?
No. The Crossroads Improvement Project Contest closed in April 2010 and was never repeated, so the entire supply of Royal Agate, Arborist's Verdant, Duskeye, and Violently Pink eggs was fixed that week. The only way to own one now is buying an existing copy from a current holder.
