Got anything funny to say about that, funny man?
The Soldier

Dr's Dapper Topper is an unlockable headwear item for the Soldier. It is a tall, wide-brimmed top hat with alternating white and red stripes, much like the Cat in the Hat.

Trivia

  • The hat is an obvious reference to the children's fictional book character Template:W, created by American children book author and cartoonist Template:W.
    • The "Dr" in the item name also refers to "Dr. Seuss", which is one of the pen names of Theodor Seuss Geisel. The entire name "Dr's Dapper Topper" is likely a homage to Geisel's famous writing style, which described a person or thing sing-song, anaphoric way.
    • The name is similar to the name chosen by Propaganda Contest winner J.Axer for his unique Towering Pillar of Hats, which has the name 'J.Axer's Dapper Topper'.
  • This is one of the few Soldier hats that allow players to see his eyes, normally obstructed by his oversized helmet.
