Notes

Redrawn robotic arm blueprints

• The video was first posted on May 5, 2010 here under the header of "Coming Soon," found through a link at the bottom of the 119th update page on the TF2 blog.

• A picture of a robot design, a lá Da Vinci, can been seen halfway down the engineer update page.

• At 0:03, a finished version of the Repair node can be seen in the background.

• J. Axer's propaganda contest winning entry can be seen in the background on the wall, though the Soldier is RED instead of BLU like in the original art.

• A blueprint appears behind the Engineer, showing what appears to be robotic parts, including an arm.

• A Flamethrower is shown on the Engineer's workbench

• The Engineer is using a blowtorch, which may or may not have any significance.

• The Engineer is seen using a welding mask in the video, though it is not the Hotrod headwear. The Hotrod can, however, be seen sticking out of a toolchest at the very beginning of the video, above the Engineer's acoustic guitar from Meet the Engineer.

• A full, detailed deconstruction of the video can be found here.

• At 0:27 in length, this is the shortest official TF2 video so far.

• This video includes several different objects scattered throughout, some of which were included in the Engineer Update, including the acoustic guitar seen in Meet the Engineer and also used for the Dischord taunt. Another item includes the Gunslinger robotic arm.
