TF2 - Polypack - TheBladeRoden
Heavy is hero of Soviet Union!
I've got it narrowed down to 5 items so far.
Primary Weapon
Crazy Ivanka
Heavy's minigun get's replaced with a semi-man-portable quad-barreled anti-aircraft gun. It's conceptiually based on weapons like the Pom-Pom and the Shilka. Trying to decide on individual features like a shield and number of ammo boxes etc. If I ever get my animation abilities up in time, I'd like to be able to have the barrels recoil instead of rotating like the minigun.
Melee Weapon
1. Brick Knuckles
Heavy carries pieces of of the Kremlin and Berlin Walls with him whereever he goes. Partially as mementos, and partially as a means to bash his opponents head in. The Heavy ties these pieces of masonry to his hands (well, he get's the Medic to do it, darn complicated knots) and goes swinging into battle.
2. H.E. Double Hockey Sticks
Heavy is normally credit to Soviet Olympic Hockey Team, but even the best lose on occassion. And when that happens, Heavy starts breaking things in half, and then he uses those things to break other things in half, and those other things are usually members of the blue team.
Hat
1. Bald Man's Budionovka
This soviet cavalry hat is onion-domed just like St. Basil itself!
2. Private's Pilotka
Pilotka-wearing Heavies get bossed around by Ushanka-wearing Heavies
Ok there's my ideas thus far. Are any of them keepers?

I'm looking forward to progress.
The Heavy is a Soviet Russian, that sort of is his theme.
Random fun fact: The Berlin wall was constructed in 1961, at around the same time tf2 takes place, give or take a few years. Maybe you should call the brick the Berlin Bruisers.
