The Beep Boy is community-created cosmetic item for the Engineer. It is a team-colored portable, presumably gaming device with two orange action buttons marked with "T" and "F" letters, grey directional pad, speaker and a display with a smiling emote. The Beep Boy also contains a cartridge inside of it, which shares the same name as the item. The emote's facial flexes correspond with those of the Engineer, so the device shows Engineer's current expression or talks together with him.
The Beep Boy was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
