Talk:Balloonicorn

Possible reference?

I know I'm going to sound like a broken record by saying this, but don't you think there might be a reference or two in this item's description? My gut instinct tells me there's at least 1 Charlie the Unicorn reference in there (I haven't seen the series in years) and that the mention of the unicorn being the Mayor of Pyroland might be a reference to the old TV show H.R. Pufnstuf. Can anyone else help clarify this/pitch in ideas? I'm not going to make any edits until I can confirm all references. HibiscusKazeneko 02:21, 28 June 2012 (PDT)

A question for science

If a player should have both the Balloonicorn and either the Alien Swarm Parasite or the Brainslug, and the Pyro get's an unassisted kill, which item is credited the assist? ~Sven~ 20:41, 29 June 2012 (PDT)

Badge Level

My Balloonicorn is level 20 and so is a friend's. Is this a set level for the item? NeoSlith 22:59, 29 June 2012 (PDT)

Yes.--Enthers. (I find this work intriguing. How about yourself, sir?) 21:01, 1 July 2012 (PDT)

Craft Balloonicorn

Does someone already know how to craft it? Please add to the article! Shuriken 06:03, 1 July 2012 (PDT)

I think it just means you can get it from a random craft, such as the Fabricate Headgear recipe, with whatever recipe is used with misc items. --Enthers. (I find this work intriguing. How about yourself, sir?) 21:01, 1 July 2012 (PDT)

Is Baloonicorn a balloon, or a real unicorn?

I need clarification, because it is just a balloon, right? --Enthers. (I find this work intriguing. How about yourself, sir?) 21:16, 1 July 2012 (PDT)

100% sure it's just a balloon, given that:

• Baloonicorn;
• In-game it works like just a balloon, as in, it does not have any fancy effect or particle whatsoever;
• Valve even sells a real-life replica (at store.valvesoftware.com) that comes with a code for this item.

You forgot to sign your post. But in the context of the game, it sure acts like it's a real animal. Especially in Pyrovision and Meet the Pyro. --Enthers. (I find this work intriguing. How about yourself, sir?) 22:18, 1 July 2012 (PDT)

I'm gonna go with "real imaginary unicorn." ~Sven~ 22:32, 1 July 2012 (PDT)
