Following the branding updates that occurred with the release of [[Hi-5 Australia (Season 8)|Season 8]], Ballheads received a significant update. Their fourth design features a new model where their faces are integrated into the three-dimensional form instead of being two-dimensional designs. Additionally, their heads have transitioned to a more amber, yellowish hue, and their hands and feet have been updated to a unified dark red color. Their proportions were adjusted once again, resembling those of their original 1999 counterpart.
