This is kind of cool, though slightly sledgehammer to the fourth wall type of deal. Sam and Max are coming out with another episode, and to celebrate that Valve is releasing a bunch of Sam and Max items with the purchase of the new Sam and Max game, The Penal Zone. The first you can see above being Max’s severed head. The rest are as follows. Check out the whole post at the Team Fortress 2 blog.
Max’s Severed Head
It’s not often you’re given the gift of a beloved character’s decapitated head by the very studio responsible for that character. Still, we’re not complaining. It’s soft, it wicks away moisture in the heat of battle, it highlights our eyes. It’s got us thinking about all the other game characters we could be wearing around as clothes.
Max’s Pistol
Who wouldn’t want to squeeze off a couple rounds with the murder weapon of choice of a sociopathic cartoon rabbit? Probably quite a lot of people, when you get right down to it. Luckily, those people are all well-adjusted contributors to society with no police records, spotless credit ratings and few unresolvable moral failings. They also probably have no interest in playing TF2, so that means more murder-rabbit gun shooting for the rest of us.
Sam’s Revolver
This might look like an ordinary revolver, until you realize that it helps a talking dog solve crimes. How many crimes has YOUR dog solved lately? And let’s face it, his revolver kind of sucks too. Man, we want to talk about this gun more, but we can’t get over how much your dog sucks.
