Value Change Explanation:
The reason the community poll pushed the value of Radar up by $500,000 to a new valuation of $2,000,000 comes down to a mix of scarcity, collector perception, and recent shifts in trading sentiment within the Jailbreak Trading Expansion. Radar began as a Season 12 Level 9 exclusive rim, meaning only players who reached that tier in the pass obtained it, instantly giving it a gatekept origin story tied to achievement rather than casual unlocks. With its duped value starting at $1,250,000 and trading value at $1,500,000, the rim was already positioned as a semi-desirable item, but the community initially dismissed it due to its low general demand rating of 1.34 out of 10, which suggested it appealed only to a niche audience. However, as distribution numbers became clearer, with just 87 unique copies verified circulating and only 117 trades logged in the last month, traders began realizing how uncommon Radar truly was, particularly compared to the more obtainable Camo Radar, which had a lower unlock requirement at Season 12 Level 8. This comparison highlighted that even though demand was low, the higher-level requirement for Radar limited its original player base pool, creating a sharper rarity premium that does not show in surface-level trade activity. Collector-driven discussions in Jailbreak Trading further amplified this perception, with frequent debates pointing out that while mainstream demand is minimal, the rim holds an outsized appeal to veteran traders seeking rare pass exclusives with high Collector Rarity Scores, which in Radar’s case sits at 381, a number that reinforces its status as a specialized investment piece rather than a casual trade. Furthermore, as trading economy cycles in Trading Island have shown, items with relatively stagnant short-term movement but meaningful history eventually pick up momentum once collectors start accumulating them to lock out supply, and the poll represented a moment where that community sentiment crystallized into consensus. The sharp increase was essentially a reflection of market participants recognizing Radar not as a liquid high-demand commodity but as a prestige-based collector’s asset with long-term appreciation potential despite poor immediate tradeability, and once this narrative gained traction, a jump by half a million in community valuation was seen as not only reasonable but overdue, correcting the undervaluation of an item that now commands $2,000,000 as its accepted trading value.
Additional Item Information:
The Radar in the Jailbreak Trading Expansion is a unique rim with a military-inspired aesthetic introduced as part of Season 12: Bring in the Military, distinguishable for its circular dish-like design reminiscent of real-world tracking and scanning equipment often used by the armed forces, giving vehicles an advanced surveillance look when equipped. It was originally obtainable by reaching Level 9 of the season, but because the season has long ended, it is now entirely unobtainable except through trades on Trading Island, giving it a legacy status as a collector’s rim. The Radar was pass-exclusive, meaning only players who purchased the Season Pass and leveled up sufficiently could secure it, adding an exclusivity factor that has cemented it as a desirable cosmetic for dedicated collectors. Its collector rarity score of 381 places it in a higher-end collectible category, but its demand rating is very low at 1.34, suggesting that while it carries prestige from its locked nature, the majority of players do not actively seek it for everyday use, leaving it primarily within trading circles among collectors who value rarity or season-exclusive aesthetics. There are currently only 87 known copies in circulation with 117 trades recorded, making it one of the rarer rims in existence, though its trading activity shows it changes hands somewhat frequently compared to extremely locked-down legendary items. The Radar’s design is clearly inspired by military-grade radar dishes and early surveillance systems, matching the overarching Season 12 theme centered on tactical hardware and militarization. Functionally it does not alter gameplay performance in terms of speed or handling, as rims in Jailbreak Trading Expansion are purely cosmetic, but many players enjoy pairing it with matching camo or military-themed textures such as the Camo Radar Texture, creating an immersive theme for vehicles like the Army Helicopter, Tank, or Military Jeep. Since its release, the Radar has not undergone any significant reworks or balancing adjustments, as rims in Jailbreak serve solely as customization items, but its trading value has fluctuated, with early peaks due to scarcity later normalizing as demand dropped significantly. Community perception of the Radar positions it as a status item less for its design appeal and more because it is proof of progression and investment during Season 12, and owning it shows that a player was active during a themed season that pushed Jailbreak toward more tactical and military-styled content. Among collectors, it is often stored rather than flexed, but seasoned traders recognize its long-term trade potential as a rare, locked item that will never return, making it a quiet but reliable vault piece in an inventory. Trivia surrounding the Radar includes that it was overshadowed by other flashier rewards from the same season, meaning many casual players hardly remember it compared to iconic textures or toppers, yet its availability numbers remain so small that it holds its own niche appeal. Notably, some veterans deliberately seek it to complete military-themed loadouts, crediting it with enhancing immersion, particularly when viewed up close since its detailing stands out more than other simpler rim models. Overall, the Radar represents a season-locked rarity that occupies an interesting place in the cultural memory of Jailbreak Trading Expansion: not widely demanded, but undeniably rare and valued by collectors for its exclusivity and its alignment with one of the game’s most thematic seasons.
