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.
Team Fortress 2
Game » consists of 12 releases. Released Oct 10, 2007
The long-awaited sequel to the class-based first-person shooter Team Fortress Classic sports a unique cartoony visual style, more accessible gameplay, and a very large amount of updates and new features since its original release.
Unusual Fancy Fedora!
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.
i have had no luck with crates and opened about 20 of em. i wana trade for an unusual. i have over 30 hats lmao.. including the DR suess hat for soldier lol. i'd trade some stuff for the fedora unusual in a heatbeat
" @Rockdalf said: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 :(.The worst part is I can't wear it unless I want to give up the bonus.Yeah, that part of the update is really annoying. Hat's shouldn't have statistics... I hope they change it. "

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.
" @Rockdalf said: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"." @TheGremp said: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.

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.
One man's trash is another's treasure :p
Friend of mine has opened two crates.
His first was an Unusual Scottsman's Stovepipe.
His second was a Chieftain's Challenge.

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.
