If you’ve been following the ROBLOX blog for the past few months, you’ve probably seen one of our three hotly debated “Character Explorations” posts, in which we’ve shown the ongoing design progress for our version-3.0 character models. Love them or not, your feedback has helped shape the look of the future ROBLOX.
This time around, we’ve taken the new 3D bodies to the next level by creating fully dressed, personality-rich prototype characters and putting them into motion. Check out this post for a video preview from ROBLOX Art Director Jonathan Jahr.
Our new character models, once released, will be optional and compatible with previously released catalog items. If you’re a longtime user who’s attached to the original look, you’re welcome to stick with it. But don’t be surprised when you start seeing some new faces in ROBLOX.


Look Cool Like A Pop Star
i think they look a bit too much like lego and i dont like them :/
Stop hatin the 3.0 bodies,noobs. HATERS GONNA HATE.srsly. i like them,and i like roblox the way it is.ya hear me?
3 things. 1: I kinda like these
2: They do not look like legos at all accept for the hands. And 3: I kinda dont like them!
I’m really glad its optional. Also what would the girls look like or is it just for boys.
they look rediculus!!!!!! and stupid!!!!!!! i hate them and only about 1% of all robloxicans whant this i mean serusly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-Sigh- 2 Things:
1. There is a lot more that 1% of Robloxians that want this
2. Work on your spelling…
Roblox please add this and it’s free! because the NBCs Are more than Bcs Just give the Nbcs a chance to have something special like the 3.0 bodies
Ummm… Support ODing much? Atleast they are optional, but I think they suck.
At the beggining, He says “Hi this is ROBLOX”
OLOLOLOLOLOL That was a funny joke!
Now its “Ro-Realistic”. Those bodies look like Trash.
Notice how every NEW PLAYER on ROBLOX wan’t these.
AND THE REST OF US? THE 99.9%? THEY IGNORE US.
I agree. New players don’t relise that us older players are what keeps this game going. Without our knowings of how ROBLOX works, no one would understand ROBLOX. ROBLOX is neglecting our pleas to stop this, and if this continues, a fear that ROBLOX will have dark days in it’s future… Like it or not…
i know right what happens to the oringanal people who helped roblox become what it is now
I’m starting to think ROBLOX is a piece of trash. And ROBLOX, I have tried to post 3 times, and you won’t post it…
Yay! Now ROBLOX will have crazy adults playing now! >.>
Mhm.. Very smart ROBLOX.
Well, they atleast told us that it’s an option, you can just stick to the other bodies!
Don’t hate if you haven’t quite followed the article good!
ROBLOX account maddennis10.
i dont agree with this. though these bodies are optional,players wont have the immagination of making a completely random character
If the bodies get changed…you would need to change the whole game……terrain and building wise…
The bodies……for some reason don’t really say, ROBLOX, to me. They seem more like bodies you can buy though, are they?
i notice that the people that want the 3.0 are freeby’s and the people who hate them have a bc current or in the past so why should Roblox match either party’s demands you should comment on what you think not suggest a price so you can snag one cheap and like he said if you don’t want one they are OPTIONAL so get a life and stop scrutinizing Roblox.
AWESOME!! this will be AWESOME FINALLY BODIES AT LEAST FOR CHARACTERS…
hey when is it out i might try it but if i doint like ill go back
this is awsome:) plz plz plz plz let them be for every one not just the biulder club people
woohoo!!!ya roblox
Roblox is making horrible decisions. This is probably the worst one that they’ve EVER had. These bodies where literally designed for OD’ers! I’m glad this is optional. No way I would ever get this.
im going to stick with roblox2.0
I just look back at the good old days but the new bodys are fine, Just I like my 1.0 more.
Still thinking may try one just for the heck of it. The look just like the ones from KREO Battleship games that they came out with earlier.
thats the thing they are making it basicly kreo just online
I think these are AWESOME! Just hope EVERYONE can wear them! good job ROBLOX staff!
and plus, is that BLOOD? This is a kid game!
Its red hair.
err…. these are….. not roblox, I mean, these don’t look like roblox, it kinda ruins the “blox” in roblox D:
so now it will just be ro instead of roblox
The day that the 3.0s are released, I will. Quit roblox.
Atleast make the heads and some faces non bc…
maybe a body or 2 also non bc.
They look very nice but I like the classic look. :P
Guys. Come down, its optional. I don’t particuarly like them either but as long as long as they’re optional it’s fine. Just imagine these as a new package, something you buy and I’m hoping for the NBC members that do like these that they aren’t a BC feature.
I think its great, but the faces?
The faces are VERY different! Are we going to be able to make our own faces or something?
Also, Head shape.
The head shape is quite a bit different!
I’m curious as to how the hats will fit!
Also, as to how infrequently packages come out, what about individual templates?
Or, at least a different template for this ‘Special’ Update of a package.
A message left to ‘BaconSoap’, my user name, would be nice.
- Thank you for reviewing my feedback.
I might buy it but I don’t know if I would wear it
kreo bodies much?
ikr
I like these new bodies acually, but not really my top choice. anyone agree?
ROBLOX. Look around you. ODers ALL OVER THE PLACE. And you want to release the bodies that doesn’t even match the name? Think. Copying other brands doesn’t make you guys cool. It simply creates more lawsuit problems(like the circle studs -.-)
THANK YOU FOR MAKEING THEM OPTIONAL!!!!!!!!!!11
So this is what roblox is doing while just about every other game I go to is exploited. I will admit these bodies aren’t bad. But roblox, are you not paying attention to what’s happening in the games, or are you ignoring it and trying to distract are attention from it by making new bodies and hosting, “Mock Hackathon’s?”
When i look at this, i see a different game. What? Roblox? Impossible! Well, YOU WILL NEVER CATCH ME WEARING IT BLOCK BODIES ARE GOOD ENOUGH!
I have to admit, they’re good. However, if these become the new 2.0, how much will they cost? Are they BC-only?
First of all, the new bodies look like LEGO and KREO combined. Second of all, people complain that they like the old ROBLOX better. (Honestly, I do not like the new bodies either.)
agreed and when will they come on the market
To all haters of V.3 bodies:You guys didn’t read the whole article did you?It says ‘Our new character models, once released, will be optional and compatible with previously released catalog items. If you’re a longtime user who’s attached to the original look, you’re welcome to stick with it.’Problem solved i guess.Haters go hate somewhere else!
Haters be learners
Thank god. i was just about to post DO NOT WANT
Er, no. They look like KRE-O and everyone will be wearing them. If they existed, better off HAVING to wear them rather than it being optional. It’s gonna end up as Kre-oblox.
Noob! I bet at least only 50% of Roblox likes these. And Im talking 50% or less. If everyone will wear these, then why are everyone posting comments abut them hating it? And it is better being them optional because if they were not optional, then like half of Roblox would quit.
hello i belive that the 3.0 bods are cool yet too close to kreo bods so roblox might get sued but maybe not maybe kreo authorized it. just a thought….
please make them available for non builders club people too
Yea I don’t want to have to buy a bc membership.
Have you noticed that about 0.01% of Robloxians want this?
you do realize you are the 0.01% that cares
Atleast they’re optinal :)
That looks creepy.
This is obviously going to be a BC only feature, *Sigh*.
~I am nobody, and nobody is perfect, therefore, I am perfect~
really good, actually, love that slash animation! just clean it up a bit, keep it optional to use, and itll be great!
They’re actually kinda cute… xD
I totaly agree with elite this is optional you arent forced to wear it
To all you people saying this isn’t “blocky” its still a block! just with a different mesh! You are the ones with to knowledge of ROBLOX.
okai ya roblox sucks with the new bodies .__.
if they add them it’ll be wierd cause then people wearing this would look like from a completely diffrent game lke lego or something
You Guys Are Mean! Roblox Might Get Lawsuited Just For The Models looking nothing like lego or kreo But similar.You Guys Must Deal With it Now Fools!! Its Optional if its 3.0 like the 2.0 one.Now Calm down or il hunt you down!litterly Im not Kidding Roblox doesnt deserve this.They do all of this for you and this is what you do? BE stupid? well U Suck!
Although they look a bit cool, look at the facts:The UTube video? Mostly dislikes (Last I checked). They look entirely like Lego, which most seasoned users hate. Also, I can see SO MUCH ODing!!! Also, the part about how older members can still have oringional bodies scare me into thinking they will do a forceful changeover in the hear future…
Hey everybody listen up!This is what I think! Roblox shouldnt get lawsuited for just some simple body that looks nothing like lego or kreo!
People are getting too overeacted over this!
You guys need to know! Stop Thinking this is copying other websites!! Were probably the only website that actually is a massive online game besides kreo or lego(cause lego closed their lego universe)And For All You Haters Deal with it!!!!!You Don’t need to wear it!I think even the copyrighter thinkers should understand.This doesnt even look like lego+kreo to me. It looks like a new cool body.Why doesnt lego or kreo get updates like us? Well lets see lets see.Well hope these come out soon :D
Really? your turning this into lego? ahh whatever, imma leave this crappy game
I love how people think they’re speaking for everyone when nobody agrees with them. If you care that much about appearances then you shouldn’t be playing Roblox.
Uh, are you new to ROBLOX or something? Guess so. My account CHRYSLERME412 hardly ever plays games, ’cause most games are just by newbs. I’m famous on my account, and many of you know, famous people don’t play games.
Look, although this is an optional choice I just don’t enjoy this idea of 3.0 robloxian. The 2.0 had a great design and it was one of a kind, I could deal with it. But now this is getting way out of hand. These 3.0s look too much like KREO and not only that but it’s pulling away more of the old crowd of us robloxians, and a whole lot less new. I truely miss the old roblox. Roblox you have messed up big.
I don’t mind the idea of new bodies I just don’t like that he come with everything.
Listen, its optional to be the uglys or the epics. Iam staying with robloxian 1 and 2.0. I love Roblox the way it is.
I’m fine with this its just I like the 1.0 bodies better than most of these.
GUYS STOP HATING! THIS IS OPTIONAL! YOU CAN CHOOSE TO WEAR IT OR NOT!!!!!! Jeez…
well a couple of weeks, then you should of premierd it today, i have been waiting to long with you guys saying they will be out soon! your crushing my soul! *cries*
People stop asking for them not to come out it’s not it wont work pluse you don’t have to wear them gosh.
Do you know how much this is screwing us ROBLOX? The 2.0 I could barely stand, the only Reason i’m not quitting is because of the war faces, Everything else looks like it’s promoting Online Dating, ROBLOX is just getting worse, The had screwed it up a TON. Bring it back to the 08!
They just need some udjustments to look more roblox like look at roblox 1.0 and compare them kinda mix them a bit. Add more roblox look’s.
Just add them now please. You guys are killing me with how much time I have to wait. JUST ADD THEM. Sorry caps. I expect the price to be from like 50 robux to 250. They are just that good.
I expect them to be REMOVED right away, they are that bad.
I hope this is optional…
Looks too much like Lego people. Try changing that.
i wonder how much it will be and i hope its not alot XD
these shouldnt be hated. the newer robloxian like these alot. and if its optional, why do you care? you are such idiots. and why would you ever have thought you were forced to have them? the 2.0 bodies are for bc only.
I totaly Agree, why hate something that you dont have to be forced with it? Its just like Hats, Back then people though hats would run roblox becuase they werent “blocks.” Well we learn to like things. And you dont have to like Bodys, Becuase its optional and so are hats.
Well, ROBLOX had heads in 2004. They had them in 2005. They had heads before hats. 5 YEARS LATER, THERE WILL STILL BE HEADS. Heads are not ‘Blocks’ Either.
I know, and people in 2008 thought that shirts and pants would ruin ROBLOX because they could be to detailed, but they really weren’t. In 2010 people thought that 2.0 bodys would ruin ROBLOX, then the all knew that they where all an option. Now here in 2012 people are thinking the same exact thing about 3.0 bodys. Spo guys, don’t worry, because even in the video it says that they are an option.
People looking like the normal ROBLOXian, or any packages that exist now, just look like ROBLOXians. People with these will look like they’re from Lego or something.
