Roblox made six Mardi Gras Limiteds, and all of them landed between February 2010 and March 2014. The Mardi Gras Sword leads the group with a 33,102 R$ RAP across just 251 copies, and the cheapest one listed right now costs 49,999 R$. Roblox has not made a Mardi Gras Limited since March 2014, and every Mardi Gras item it has published since then sits in the catalog with no resale market attached, so the tradable side of the holiday now belongs to community creators.
Quick answer: Six Roblox-made Mardi Gras items are Limiteds: the Red and Blue Mardi Gras Masks (2010), the Mardi Skull Mask (2011), and the Mardi Gras Sword, King of Mardi Gras and Mardi Gras Jester (2014). The sword is the most valuable at a 33,102 R$ RAP, per RBX Invest catalog data on October 21, 2026.
| Item | Released | Original price | Copies | RAP | Lowest ask |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Feb 28, 2014 | 1,000 R$ | 251 | 33,102 R$ | 49,999 R$ | |
| Mar 1, 2014 | 1,000 R$ | 400 | 15,962 R$ | 20,000 R$ | |
| Feb 16, 2010 | 100 R$ | 1,339 | 5,948 R$ | 6,796 R$ | |
| Jun 8, 2011 | 25 R$ | 1,527 | 4,312 R$ | 3,500 R$ | |
| Feb 16, 2010 | 100 R$ | 1,316 | 3,548 R$ | 4,200 R$ | |
| Mar 1, 2014 | 250 R$ | 1,000 | 3,160 R$ | 4,700 R$ |
Five words before the history, because the rest of this leans on them. A Limited is an avatar item Roblox stopped selling, so the only way to get one now is to buy it from another player. A Limited U is the same thing with serial numbers, meaning every copy is stamped #1, #2, #3 and so on, and all six items above are Limited U. RAP stands for Recent Average Price, a smoothed average Roblox builds from an item's whole sale history, which moves only one tenth of the way toward each new sale. The lowest ask, also called the floor, is the cheapest copy a reseller has listed today, and that is the number you would actually pay. Copies is how many of the item exist in total.
Why did the 2010 Mardi Gras masks launch on Fat Tuesday itself?
Because Roblox timed them to the day. The Red Mardi Gras Mask and the Blue Mardi Gras Mask both went up on February 16, 2010, which was Mardi Gras that year, and each sold for 100 Robux. Mardi Gras moves around the calendar since it always falls 47 days before Easter Sunday, so hitting the exact date meant scheduling the drop fresh each year.
Both are face accessories, the 3D kind that clips onto your avatar's head. The animated head rollout that replaced Roblox's 2D face Limiteds in early 2026 left accessories like these alone, which the face value decline breakdown covers in full.
The two masks are near twins in supply and nowhere near twins in price. Red has 1,339 copies and a 5,948 R$ RAP. Blue has 1,316 copies and a 3,548 R$ RAP. That is a 68% gap on a 2% difference in supply, and the explanation is plain demand: red reads as the Mardi Gras color, and the red one picked up extra attention over the years. The Roblox Wiki on Fandom records it as the mask worn by a well known Roblox myth character, a community-documented detail that lines up with how the two have traded. Red also carries 2,626 favorites to Blue's 2,539.
You can see where both rank against every other face item on the classic face accessories collection.
What is the Mardi Skull Mask, and why did it launch in June?
The Mardi Skull Mask is a 25 Robux skull mask Roblox published on June 8, 2011, nowhere near Mardi Gras, and its catalog description winks at that: "Should be worn on Tuesdays only...nah j/k." Traders group it with the Mardi Gras items on the strength of the name and the carnival styling, and Roblox filed it under its horror genre.
It is the most owned item in the family at 1,527 copies and the most favorited by a wide margin, with 4,825 favorites against the 2,626 on the Red mask. Favorites cost nothing to give, so a big number says people like the look. The price says something quieter: the cheapest listing sits at 3,500 R$, below its own 4,312 R$ RAP, which makes it the cheapest way into the group. That relationship between popularity and price gets its own treatment in do favorites affect Limited value.
A floor under RAP on a quiet item usually means one holder wants out and nobody is bidding the number up. If you want a Mardi Gras Limited to wear, start here.
Which Mardi Gras Limited is worth the most? The 2014 Mardi Gras Sword
The Mardi Gras Sword, by a long way. Roblox published it on February 28, 2014 at 1,000 Robux with a description that leans all the way in: "Laissez les bons temps rouler! Your enemies don't stand a chance against this festive sword." It is gear, the usable kind of item, and the rest of that description promises a confetti party over your defeated enemies. The Roblox Wiki on Fandom lists it as a melee gear item.
Only 251 copies exist. That is the entire story of its price. RAP sits at 33,102 R$ and the cheapest listing is 49,999 R$, a 51% premium over the smoothed average, which happens when a handful of copies are listed and holders feel no pressure. Somebody who bought one at launch for 1,000 Robux and sold at today's floor would gross about 50 times their money over twelve years, closer to 35 times once Roblox takes its cut.
Roblox stopped making gear Limiteds years ago, so the supply of items like this can only shrink as accounts get deleted. The rest of that fixed-supply category sits on the classic gear collection, and what counts as gear explains why these items behave differently from hats.
How rare is King of Mardi Gras? 400 copies and the second-highest RAP
The King of Mardi Gras is the scarcest hat in the family, with 400 copies, a 15,962 R$ RAP and a 20,000 R$ floor. Roblox put it in the catalog on March 1, 2014 at 1,000 Robux with the description "Every parade must have a king," three days before Mardi Gras 2014 fell on March 4.
Its sibling that weekend was the Mardi Gras Jester, a 250 Robux hat with 1,000 copies minted. The jester has the lowest RAP of the six at 3,160 R$ while asking 4,700 R$, and the ranking against the king is supply doing the work: 400 copies against 1,000, and a four-times-higher launch price that filtered out casual buyers from the start. Jester fans will find the wider family on the clown and jester Limiteds history.
Both hats show up on the classic hats collection, and both are cheap enough to sit in the Limiteds under 10,000 Robux band if you go for the jester.
Why aren't the newer Roblox Mardi Gras items Limited?
Roblox kept making Mardi Gras items after 2014 and simply stopped making them Limited. Four of them are still sitting in the catalog at their original prices right now, according to Roblox's own economy data:
- Gold Mardi Gras Mask, March 1, 2014, 200 Robux. Released the same day as the king and the jester, with none of the scarcity.
- Mardi Gras Party Mask, April 1, 2014, 95 Robux.
- Mardi Gras Top Hat, February 9, 2018, 400 Robux, four days before Mardi Gras 2018.
- Queen of Mardi Gras, February 28, 2019, 500 Robux, five days before Mardi Gras 2019.
Two more Roblox-made Mardi Gras items were never sold at all. Mardi Gras Beads went out free on February 22, 2014 with the description "Let's party!", and the Mardi Gras Steampunk Mask was a Prime Gaming promotional item from December 2021, redeemable until April 2022. Both are off sale now, and because neither was ever made Limited, neither can be resold.
Anyone can buy those four on-sale items today for a few hundred Robux each, which is exactly why none of them has a resale market. An unlimited item stays at its catalog price forever, and the Queen of Mardi Gras in particular would almost certainly be a four-figure item if Roblox had capped it the way it capped her king five years earlier. The broader shift away from Roblox-made Limiteds is the subject of does Roblox still make classic Limiteds.
Who makes Roblox Mardi Gras items now? UGC creators, in very small batches
UGC Limiteds are Limiteds that community creators make and sell themselves. They arrived in April 2023, and Mardi Gras has been a small corner of that market ever since: a few creators mint a batch each February, usually in the tens of copies.
| Item | Released | Copies | RAP | Lowest ask |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Feb 14, 2026 | 50 | 121 R$ | 999 R$ | |
| Apr 18, 2023 | 472 | 93 R$ | 104 R$ | |
| Feb 14, 2026 | 10 | 16 R$ | 999 R$ |
The 2026 pair come from BBG Empire and went live three days before Mardi Gras 2026 on February 17. The oldest of the three is Maggy_Rarefication's Bejeweled Mardi Mask of Liberty, minted in April 2023 within weeks of UGC Limiteds launching, and at 472 copies it is the only one with enough supply to trade regularly. It changes hands near its 95 Robux launch price.
The small mints behave the way small mints usually do. Crimsyn & Lavender minted 10 Mardi Gras Galaxy Wings in January 2026 with no resales recorded at all, and a third creator put out a 20-copy Midnight Mardi set of horns, wings and a raised mask in February 2026, with asks near 38,000 Robux and no sales behind them. Ten or twenty copies of something nobody is selling produces a very quiet market, and a 999 R$ ask against a 16 R$ RAP tells you what one seller hopes for.
The economics also differ from the classics. On a community-created Limited resale, Roblox's marketplace documentation sets the split at 50% to the reseller, 10% to the creator, 10% to the seller or affiliate, and 30% to Roblox, so you keep half of whatever you sell for and break-even is double what you paid. Selling a classic Mardi Gras Limited leaves you 70% of the sale price after Roblox's 30% marketplace fee, so that 20,000 R$ king pays its seller about 14,000 R$.
Two more rules worth knowing before you buy anything here. UGC Limiteds cannot be traded at all, since Roblox's trade system covers classic Limiteds only, and reselling anything requires an active Roblox Plus subscription on the seller's account. Holding periods apply on both sides, a holding period being the waiting time Roblox enforces before you can list an item you just got: up to 30 days after buying a UGC Limited from its creator, up to 7 days after buying one on the resale market, and 7 days after buying a classic Limited, with a 2-day hold after a classic trade. The holding periods guide has the full clock for each case.
Are Mardi Gras Limiteds worth buying?
For collectors, this is a cheap and genuinely old family. Four of the six trade under 7,000 Robux, and two of those date to 2010, which buys you more history per Robux than most corners of the market. The masks are easy to wear year round, and the skull mask under 4,000 Robux is the obvious starter.
For resellers, the sword and the king are the only two with real scarcity, and both are slow. Fewer than 700 copies exist between them, so weeks can pass without a sale, and the 49,999 R$ ask on the sword is one seller's opinion, untested by any recent sale. Thin markets cut both ways: you can wait a long time to buy well, and a long time to sell at all.
Timing is the piece you can actually act on. Mardi Gras lands between early February and early March, and the next one falls on February 9, 2027. Seasonal items pick up attention in the two or three weeks before their date and go quiet afterwards, which is the pattern described in the seasonal patterns guide. Buying these in summer and listing them in late January is the standard play. If you want to catch a cheap copy, the deal feed flags Limiteds listed below RAP once you sign in, and the items leaderboard shows where any of them sit in the wider market.
None of this is financial advice. Limiteds lose value as readily as they gain it, and a family this small can stay flat for years.
FAQ
How many Roblox Mardi Gras Limiteds are there?
Six. The Red and Blue Mardi Gras Masks from February 16, 2010, the Mardi Skull Mask from June 8, 2011, and the Mardi Gras Sword, King of Mardi Gras and Mardi Gras Jester from the end of February 2014. All six are Limited U, so every copy carries a serial number.
What is the most valuable Roblox Mardi Gras item?
The Mardi Gras Sword, with a 33,102 R$ RAP across 251 copies as of October 21, 2026. Its cheapest listed copy costs 49,999 R$, which is 51% above its RAP because so few copies are listed at any one time.
Can you still buy a Mardi Gras item from Roblox?
Yes, four of them. The Gold Mardi Gras Mask (200 Robux), Mardi Gras Party Mask (95 Robux), Mardi Gras Top Hat (400 Robux) and Queen of Mardi Gras (500 Robux) are all still on sale at their original prices. None of them is a Limited, so none can be resold.
Why is the Red Mardi Gras Mask worth more than the Blue one?
Demand, since supply is almost identical at 1,339 copies for Red and 1,316 for Blue. Red is the color people associate with the holiday and the one that collected more attention over sixteen years, which shows up as a 5,948 R$ RAP against Blue's 3,548 R$.
Is the Mardi Skull Mask actually a Mardi Gras item?
It carries the name and the carnival look, but Roblox published it on June 8, 2011, months away from the holiday, and listed it under its horror genre. Traders count it with the group because of the name. At 1,527 copies it is the most owned member and, at a 3,500 R$ floor, the cheapest.
How much do you keep when you sell a Mardi Gras Limited?
70% of the sale price on these classic Limiteds, with Roblox taking a 30% marketplace fee, so a 20,000 Robux sale pays out about 14,000 Robux. You also need an active Roblox Plus subscription on your account to list a resale at all.
When is the best time to buy a seasonal Roblox Limited?
In the months furthest from its holiday, when attention is lowest. For Mardi Gras items that means late spring through autumn, since the holiday falls between early February and early March. The next Mardi Gras is February 9, 2027.
Are there UGC Mardi Gras Limiteds?
Yes, a handful. The biggest is Maggy_Rarefication's Bejeweled Mardi Mask of Liberty from April 2023, with 472 copies and a 104 R$ floor. BBG Empire released a 50-copy Mardi Gras Top Hat and a 10-copy Mardi Gras Mask on February 14, 2026, and Crimsyn & Lavender minted 10 Mardi Gras Galaxy Wings in January 2026. UGC Limiteds can only be resold, never traded.
