The Ap-Sap is a promotional building weapon for the Spy. He is based on Wheatley from the video game Portal 2; a flattened core with a glowing blue eye, with voice lines which are activated upon certain circumstances, such as when deployed or destroyed, and eyelids that move as he talks and widen when in range of a sappable building.
This weapon functions identically to the Sapper.
This item is awarded in Genuine quality to players who open a What's in the Portal 2 Soundtrack Box?, which was included via promo code with the Portal 2: Songs to Test By CD.

Bugs
- The attribute Place on enemy buildings to disable and slowly drain away its health. Placing a Sapper does not remove your disguise is missing.
- Upon a feigned death with the Dead Ringer, neither a model is dropped nor a death response is heard by the user or other players.
- When an Engineer removes this Sapper from a building, the Ap-Sap may respond as if the building was successfully sapped.
- The Ap-Sap does not glow when Crit-boosted.
- In Mann vs. Machine, after sapping a robot, the Ap-Sap repeatedly says hacking voice lines once it has recharged.
- When inspecting the Ap-Sap, the eyelids do not move if a voice line is active.
- If a voice line is active, then the Ap-Sap is inspected, the eyelids revert back to normal and do not move.
Trivia
- Stephen Merchant reprises his role as the voice of Wheatley for the Ap-Sap.
- The name of the item is a portmanteau of "Aperture" and "Sapper".
- The description mentions GLaDOS, the main antagonist from the Portal franchise. It also mentions the Aperture Science facilities.
