Steal an Egg Slick Rick Location: Where to Find Him (Update 13)

Slick Rick spawns at random in the Alien Biome, at the far end of the map near the Alien Ferryman. You need 250B Speed to get in, and a server-wide notification tells you when he has arrived. His Black Market van is a black truck with gold-rimmed wheels, so it is easy to recognize once you are standing in the right biome.

The catch is the word “random.” There is no fixed time and no marker you can walk to ahead of time, so the real skill is being in the right place before he shows up. The event window closes on November 16 at 17:00 UTC, so this guide focuses on getting you to the van fast. For what he sells and what it costs, see our full Slick Rick guide.

Why Do Guides Disagree About Where Slick Rick Is?

Because the developers only said one thing: he appears at random in the Alien Biome. Everything more specific comes from players, and those reports do not match perfectly.

• Next to the Alien Ferryman: the most common report, and the one I would plan around.
• The Lagoon: some wiki entries say you need to reach the Alien Lagoon to interact with him. That is the hidden fishing area the Ferryman opens after his quest.
• The main lobby or the edges of other zones: one guide claims this, and no other source repeats it.

My read is that the Ferryman area and the Lagoon are close enough that players describe the same visit two ways. Still, I would not treat either as settled. The sensible move is to prepare for both, which the next section covers.

Can You Reach Slick Rick Yet? Speed and Quest Checks

Before you spend an hour waiting, check three things.

1. Speed. The Alien Biome asks for 250B Speed. Players who just reached Stormlands at 150M cannot enter, so they cannot reach the van.
2. Ferryman quest. The Alien Ferryman stands beside the gate on the right side of the biome and asks you to catch 20 fish. Finishing it adds a Lagoon option to his dialogue.
3. A rod. The Ferryman hands one out if you do not own one. The Steal an Egg fishing guide covers rods and milestones if you want a better setup.

If Slick Rick turns out to sit in the Lagoon, finishing the quest in advance means you are not fishing 20 times while his five-minute timer runs out. If he sits by the Ferryman, you lose nothing by having done it.

How to Get to Slick Rick, Step by Step

1. Reach 250B Speed and enter the Alien Biome. Keep a cushion above the line, because heavy eggs slow your run home.
2. Walk to the far end of the map, past the main nests, until you reach the Alien Ferryman and the gate.

1. Finish the 20-fish quest if you have not already, then open the Lagoon option in the Ferryman’s dialogue.
2. Wait near the Ferryman with your Cash ready and the game window open.
3. When the notification fires, check the area around the Ferryman first. If the van is not there, use the Lagoon option.
4. Walk up and open the shop prompt to see the current stock and prices.

How Do You Know Slick Rick Has Spawned?

Watch the top of your screen. When he arrives, the game sends a server-wide notification. One report gives the message as “Word on the Street is Slick Rick back in Alien Planet,” though wording can change.

Once you are close, there are three visual clues:

• A black truck with shiny gold rims.
• A “Slick Rick Black Market” caption on top of the van.
• Shelves of colored jars inside the van, which resemble the mutation items he sells.

Turn on your game sound and keep Roblox in the foreground. A notification that fires while you are alt-tabbed is easy to miss, and with a five-minute stay, even a one-minute delay costs you a fifth of your shopping time.

How Often Does Slick Rick Show Up?

There is no schedule. The spawn rules reported so far:

• A slim chance every 30 minutes during the day part of the day cycle.
• One report instead ties the roll to the moment night turns to morning. Both agree it is rare, so treat it as unconfirmed which is correct.
• He is reported as a global spawn, so he can appear on every server at once, and the stock can sell out quickly.
• Each visit lasts about 5 minutes, per reports. The official listing gives no figure.

That adds up to a simple planning rule. Over a full day the dealer may visit a handful of times, but each visit is short. Being present for the whole event window matters more than racing around once the notification fires.

Smart Ways to Wait Without Wasting Time

Standing still for hours is a poor use of a Saturday or Sunday. Here are better ways to spend the gap, and all of them keep you inside the Alien Biome.

• Fish while you wait. The quest rod works in the Lagoon area, and casts return Void Pearls, Alien Eggs, mutation items and Relics. Our Void Pearls guide explains what to do with the pearls.
• Catch the Kraken window. A boss-catching event also runs every 30 minutes in the Lagoon, so the Nebuloth Kraken event gives you a reason to be there anyway.
• Farm eggs in the biome if your Speed allows it, and return to the Ferryman between runs.

I would avoid wandering to other biomes while you wait. If he spawns for only five minutes, a long run back to the far end of the map can cost you the whole visit.

Slick Rick Not Spawning? Common Reasons Players Miss Him

• You are not in the Alien Biome. The official word is that he appears there. Other zones are unconfirmed.
• Your Speed is below 250B, so you cannot enter at all.
• You missed the notification. Keep sound on and the window active.
• The server is quiet. Because he is reported as global, hopping servers will not make him appear sooner, but a laggy server can delay the notification. A fresh server fixes that.
• The event window ended. After November 16 at 17:00 UTC, there is no confirmed schedule.
• You are looking for a marker. There is no waypoint or map pin. If a guide shows an exact map coordinate, it is a guess.

What to Bring When You Find Him

Once you are at the van, you want to buy, not browse. Bring enough Cash for the offer you have in mind, since his prices scale with your own income. Our Slick Rick items and prices lists every reported mutation, bat skin and base skin so you can decide before the timer starts.

If you cannot reach the Alien Biome yet, you are not locked out of strong mutations. Stormlands runs its own free Thunderous mutation route at 150M Speed, which you can start today.

Will Slick Rick’s Location Change?

Possibly, but nothing is confirmed. The official listing only says he comes and goes whenever he pleases. The developers have not said whether he stays Alien-only, whether he keeps spawning after November 16, or whether he later moves to other biomes. Check the Steal an Egg updates page after the next patch, and if you want to confirm the event window yourself, the Roblox event listing shows the official dates.
