| “ | Careful not to push this guy's buttons...
— Beep Man publicity blurb

The Beep Man is a community-created cosmetic item for the Engineer. It turns the Engineer into a cyborg version of the Beep Boy. It features tubes covering his arms and neck, a big monitor with a face on it that mimics the Engineer's facial expressions and emotions, a glove in place of his regular left human hand, a cartridge slot mounted on his back with a "Beep Man" cartridge inside and a gamepad mounted on his chest with two orange buttons marked with "T" and "F" letters and a grey directional pad.
This item can only be worn around Halloween or during a Full Moon; at other times of the year, it does not appear in gameplay, unless the server has Halloween mode enabled. However, it can be equipped at any time and can still be viewed on the loadout screen even when it is not visible during games.
The Beep Man was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
