The Polycount Pack is a contest by Valve and the modelling community, Polycount, to develop new community item packs to be introduced into Team Fortress 2. These items would be brand-new models with unique stats once added to the game. The results were to be announced on July 12th, but were then delayed. The contest winners were announced on July 15, 2010.

In addition to the five winning packs, Valve confirmed that several other packs were of high enough quality to be in-game, and will be added in later updates.
