Max's Severed Head is a headwear item for all classes. The item was awarded to players who bought Template:W within the first week of its release and is no longer available. It appears to be Max's head with his jaw removed, giving the appearance that he's biting on the wearer's head.

In addition to the hat, two weapons were also released; the Lugermorph (a pistol usable by the Scout and Engineer) and the Big Kill (a revolver usable by the Spy). These weapons were part of preorder promotion for Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse (Telltale Games).

  • This hat was made paintable.

Trivia

  • The in-game description mentions the hat as being crafted in cruelty-free farms in the Philippines. This is a reference to the first Sam & Max comic, Monkeys Violating the Heavenly Temple, which took place in the Philippines.
  • Textures for a team-colored version of Sam's Hat are also in the game's files, suggesting that Sam's Hat would have been added as well.
  • Telltale Games employees own self-made variants of the item.
  • The in-game description mentions the hat as being crafted in cruelty-free farms in the Philippines. This is a reference to the first Sam & Max comic, "Monkeys Violating The Heavenly Temple," which took place in the Philippines.
  • This is the second hat given out for buying or preordering another game, and one of seven items to be given for ordering a product outside of Team Fortress 2 (the others being the rest of the Sam & Max pack, the Lumbricus Lid from Worms Reloaded, Bill's Hat for pre-ordering Left 4 Dead 2, Ellis' Cap and the Frying Pan for purchasing Left 4 Dead 2 before October 7, 2010 and the Dealer's Visor for pre-ordering Poker Night at the Inventory).
  • According to "Sam & Max Hit the Road," Max has a metal plate in his head. Whether or not the hat contains one is debatable.
  • Textures for a team-colored version of Sam's hat are also in the game's files, suggesting that Sam's hat would have been added as well.
  • This hat is one of the few available with 'Jiggle-bones' that cause it to move realistically with the player's movement. Other examples include the Respectless rubber glove and Hustler's hallmark.
  • Steve Purcell first published Sam & Max in 1987.
  • A combination of its rarity and its looks easily make this the most wanted and most valuable hat in TF2, with the exception of Unusual Hats
  • Though rare, most people that own this hat do not usually wear it on many classes.
  • Many zelda-fans who own this hat tend to paint it yellow and name it "bunny hood" as a reference to the original mask in Zelda: Majora's mask. It was known for allowing Link to run faster, and thus; people use this with scout.
  • During Poker Night at the Inventory, the Heavy will say "I shall make hat from you, little bunny" to Max, referencing the hat.
  • In Episode 3 of the game this hat was to promote, Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse, the top of Max's head gets removed by a villain attempting to harvest Max's brain. This hat may be an ironic reference to that.
