Notes

Redrawn robotic arm blueprints

• The video was first posted on May 5, 2010 on a page entitled "Coming Soon". It was found by following a link located at the bottom of the 119th update page on the TF2 blog.

• At 0:03, a finished version of the Repair Node can be seen in the background.

• J. Axer's propaganda contest winning entry can be seen in the background on the wall, although the Soldier is RED instead of BLU like the original art.

• A blueprint appears behind the Engineer, showing what appears to be robotic parts, including an arm.

• A Flamethrower is shown on the Engineer's workbench.

• The Engineer's trusty guitar appears at 0:03.

• The Engineer is seen using a welding mask in the video, although it is not the Hotrod. The Hotrod can however, be seen sticking out of a tool-chest at the very beginning of the video.

• The sound the welding mask makes when the Engineer flips it up is reused from Half-Life 2, which is the running footstep of the Combine.

• An early version of the robot Heavy's head from the Mann vs. Machine gamemode can be seen in the foreground from 0:08 to 0:10, predating the gamemode by two years.
