Ooh, it is sad day!
The Heavy

Following a blog post on the TF2 Official Blog by Saxton Hale on January 10, 2013, several cosmetic items were retired from the game and made unavailable for acquisition through regular methods. These methods include purchases from the Mann Co. Store, unusual cosmetic unboxes, item drops or through craft results. The first batch of retired items have not been available since January 25, 2013.

Supply Crates that specifically list them as a possible result, in Unique quality only.
