UMP-45 | Plastique

UMP-45 | Plastique is a CS2 SMG skin built around green circuit-board graphics, colored wires, and electronic controls. Its busy receiver contrasts with the mostly dark stock, grips, and magazine. The look suits green loadouts and players who prefer a detailed technology theme. Standard, StatTrak™, and Souvenir versions are available across the full exterior range.

Description

UMP-45 | Plastique gives the UMP-45 an electronics-inspired appearance, with the receiver acting as the centerpiece of the design. The Custom Paint Job combines circuit markings, wiring, a display, and a keypad rather than relying on a simple color treatment. Bright green surfaces make the central body visually distinct from the darker supporting parts. Its mechanical details suit players who want an SMG with an illustrated hardware theme. The relatively plain stock and grips keep the visual emphasis on the receiver. Buyers can choose between standard, StatTrak, and Souvenir copies without treating version choice as a measure of condition. Factory New through Battle-Scarred availability provides a broad selection of exteriors to compare. For a particular listing, checking the exact float and inspecting the weapon image gives more context than the exterior label alone.

History and Origin

UMP-45 | Plastique was released in CS:GO on October 18, 2019, alongside the CS20 Case. Its arrival formed part of the "CS20 Case Skins" update. The skin belongs to The CS20 Collection, which also determines its collection-specific trade-up route. Graff, a Steam Workshop community designer, created the electronics-themed finish. Valve retired the rare drop pool on December 17, 2025, ending new CS20 Case drops. Existing cases can still be bought on the market and opened, so retirement does not remove that acquisition route. Today, buyers can also obtain an existing copy through Eneba Skins, the Steam Community Market, or player-to-player trades. Trade Up Contracts provide another route to the skin through eligible inputs from its collection.

Finish Style

Plastique uses a Custom Paint Job to give the weapon the appearance of exposed electronic hardware. Most of the receiver is bright green, with circuit-board markings supplying the central pattern. Silver-gray panels run along the top, adding a metallic contrast to the green body. Red, blue, yellow, and green wires cross the front and side of the weapon. A dark rectangular display and a small number pad sit above the trigger, placing the controls within the main decorated area. Metallic connector details reinforce the wiring motif without extending the same visual density across every weapon part. The stock, barrel, vertical foregrip, pistol grip, and long magazine remain mainly dark gray or black. Pale metallic edges and textured grip surfaces add detail to those darker sections, balancing the busy receiver with relatively plain surroundings.

Float Value

UMP-45 | Plastique has a float value range of 0.00 to 0.80. Its available exteriors are Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, and Battle-Scarred. Standard, StatTrak, and Souvenir versions exist, with version availability separate from the cosmetic condition indicated by float and exterior.

Rarity and Popularity

UMP-45 | Plastique is a Restricted skin from The CS20 Collection, with the CS20 Case as its case source. Its chance from the CS20 Case is 3.2%, or about 1 in 31 drops. Professional owners include s1mple, Furlan, and Dosia, although ownership alone does not establish sustained market demand.

Why it’s Popular:

• Bright green circuit-board graphics on the receiver

• Colored wiring, keypad, and metallic connector details

• Dark stock and grips balance the busy central design

• Standard, StatTrak, and Souvenir options for different preferences

Price Range

The live UMP-45 | Plastique CS2 skin price range is $0.36 to $59.22. These bounds cover the whole skin, not a fixed price for a particular exterior or version. Compare standard, StatTrak, and Souvenir listings separately, matching the exterior before judging an offer. Exact float provides additional condition information, so copies sharing an exterior label still deserve individual inspection. Before choosing a copy to buy, sell, or trade, compare equivalent listings rather than treating the broad price range as a valuation.

How to Obtain

1. Buy Directly through Eneba Skins

One of the fastest and most straightforward options is to purchase skins directly through Eneba Skins. You can browse available CS2 skins, compare prices, and choose the items that best fit your budget.

2. Open the CS20 Case

Open the CS20 Case for a chance to obtain Plastique. The case no longer drops, but existing containers can still be purchased on the market and opened. The skin's 3.2% chance means opening a case is a random route rather than a direct purchase.

3. Trade Up Contracts

A Trade Up Contract can use 10 Mil-Spec Grade skins from The CS20 Collection to produce 1 Restricted skin from that collection. Plastique is a possible result, but the outcome is random among the collection's Restricted skins.

4. Buy on the Steam Community Market

Buy an existing copy through a UMP-45 | Plastique listing on the Steam Community Market. Check the offered exterior, exact float, and version before comparing its price with other listings.

5. Trade with Other Players

Player-to-player trading offers a route to an existing Plastique copy without opening the CS20 Case. Confirm its version and exterior, then inspect the float and weapon image before accepting a swap. Unlike a case opening or trade-up, the trade concerns the specific copy shown in the offer.

Trading and Investment Considerations

The retired CS20 Case receives no new drops, but existing case openings and Trade Up Contracts can still introduce additional Plastique copies. Professional ownership adds visibility, while sustained demand, listing depth, and price direction remain uncertain. Practical comparisons should separate standard, StatTrak, and Souvenir versions, then account for exterior and exact float.

Reasons it Holds Value

• Retired CS20 Case receives no new drops

• Distinctive green circuitry and multicolored wiring

• Ownership by s1mple, Furlan, and Dosia

• Standard, StatTrak, and Souvenir versions provide collecting options

The editorial investment rating is medium: retired case supply and professional ownership offer support, but do not establish a stronger long-term outlook. The main risks are continued skin creation through existing cases and trade-ups, alongside uncertain sustained demand and future pricing.
