Who wouldn't want to squeeze off a couple rounds with the murder weapon of choice of a sociopathic cartoon rabbit? Probably quite a lot of people, when you get right down to it. Luckily, those people are all well-adjusted contributors to society with no police records, spotless credit ratings and few unresolvable moral failings. They also probably have no interest in playing TF2, so that means more murder-rabbit gun shooting for the rest of us.
Lugermorph publicity blurb

The Lugermorph (/'ljuːgɛrmɒrf/ loo-gerr-morf) is a promotional secondary weapon for the Scout and Engineer. It is based upon the sidearm of Max, the "hyperkinetic rabbity thing" from Sam & Max.

This weapon functions in exactly the same way as the Pistol.

The Lugermorph was first given in the Vintage item quality to players who pre-ordered Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse or who bought it up to a week after release. Later, it was made available through defeating Max in a knockout round of Poker Night at the Inventory in the Unique item quality.

The kill icon for the Lugermorph was contributed by NeoDement.

Bugs

  • When "Details" is selected for a Lugermorph obtained from Poker Night at The Inventory, the Mann Co. Catalog will jump to the first item, the Kritzkrieg, likely due to its separate internal item ID from the original.

Trivia

  • The name "Lugermorph" is a portmanteau of "Template:W", a German sidearm that the Lugermorph's model is based on, and "Template:W", the taxonomic order that Max claims to be part of.
  • The weapon's in-game description alludes to a running joke in the Sam & Max series, which references how no one knows where Max keeps items in his inventory.
  • The Lugermorph released with Poker Night at the Inventory uses a separate internal item ID from the Lugermorph originally released in The Devil's Playhouse promotion; this technically makes it a different item, though the only difference is that the Poker Night Lugermorph cannot be traded, and does not have the vintage tag.
  • When the Poker Night Lugermorph was released and the originally obtained Lugermorphs were created vintage, some of the creators of the Sam and Max franchise that obtained a self-made Lugermorph had their Lugermorphs become vintage quality as well, most keeping their sparkle and staying level 50, yet some did not keep the sparkle effect and just became level 50. These Lugermorphs were created tradeable when this occured.
