On 5th March, 2026, Roblox amended the DevForum post claiming that they would work with Kestrel, a well known UGC brand on the Roblox platform, to review the 1:1 migration of 2D faces. On 23rd March, 2026, Roblox fully rolled out the update, releasing sub-standard 3D heads and removing 2D faces and Classic Heads. Kestrel's Creative Director Ana went on X (Formerly Twitter) to state that Roblox had released the update without consulting Kestrel in any way, and that Roblox had released the update early. <ref>{{Cite web |last=Ana |first= |date=2026-03-23 |title=Ana on X: |url=https://x.com/Anareloux/status/2036175481624486264 |url-status=live |access-date=2026-03-24 |website=X}}</ref> This led to several users on the DevForum to believe that Kestrel had approved of the update, damaging Kestrel's reputation.
