    Yay!  4 crates later, I finally got an rare hat drop.  As the title says it's an unusual Fancy Fedora, which has a circling TF2 logo (lame).  The worst part is I can't wear it unless I want to give up the bonus. 
     
    Anyway, I captured it on FRAPS. 
     
      

      So what has your luck been with Crate drops and have you gotten any purple items yet?

    I didn't realise there were rare models.  That's pretty cool though.  I've been on a trading spree since the update.  I have 4 more hats now than I did a week ago

    Yeah, the rare models are new I think.  I've been trading for boxes like crazy but I'm going broke from buying keys.  I think that the keys are actually going to become craftable later on or droppable, because I've seen way too many boxes drop and I know that people aren't going to keep spending 2.50 to open them.

    Yeah, that part of the update is really annoying.  Hat's shouldn't have statistics...  I hope they change it.

    It'd be nice if you could assign a hat's set bonus and wear another one, assuming they keep it the same way.  But yeah, I agree, you shouldn't have to buy an 18.00 hat for a set bonus.  I mean, that or wait for it to drop :(.

    Or trade with someone else to complete your set. 
     
    and I'm pretty sure the purple lettering means it is vintage... cuz all the weapons I have... er, well had before the update are now called "Vintage Axetinguisher" and are in purple lettering.

    No vintage is blue lettering, which are items you received before the update.  This item wouldn't be vintage because I unboxed it, which was released after the update.  Purple lettering means it is a rare item, which they call "unusual"
     
    Also, you can trade to complete the set, you just can't trade goods bought with real money... cause you know that'd be wrong.

    I traded my crates for vintage weapons that I didn't have and a degreaser and a mackarel. If someone wants crates feel free to PM, I'll probably come across a few more I don't want. I'm not gonna pay money to unlock it so I have zero use for it.

    Just going to update this thread to state that I got yet another unusual in a crate earlier.  Video coming soon of unboxing and I've yet to make a video of me showing both hats off.

    Friend of mine has opened two crates.
     
    His first was an Unusual Scottsman's Stovepipe.
     
     
    His second was a Chieftain's Challenge.

    Wow, I wish I had that luck.  I'm pretty happy with my pulls though as it stands although I'm open to trading my unusual handyman's handle if someone had another unusual I'm interested in.
