Ideal for atomizing moon soldiers or neighborhood dogs at your earliest convenience!
Manmelter publicity blurb

The Manmelter is a secondary weapon for the Pyro. It is a grey, futuristic laser Pistol.

The weapon fires flaming bolts of energy that function similarly to flares from the Flare Gun. Unlike flares, shots cannot be deflected and will not normally inflict critical hits on flaming players. The weapon also has unlimited ammunition and can only fire crits when they have been accumulated via the alt-fire function. Holding the alt-fire button will extinguish teammates on fire and earn a guaranteed critical hit for each one, which will be stored for later use, similar to the Frontier Justice or Diamondback. The weapon can store up to 35 crits at one time.

Enemies killed by the Manmelter suffer a distinctive death by incineration, wherein they disintegrate into smoldering orange cinders that quickly fade away.

Taunting with the Manmelter active allows the Pyro to perform a deadly Hadouken.

This item was named the "Manmelter 3600 ZX" in promotional materials from the TF2 blog and Weta Workshop.
