I think that's more to do with the artstyle shift than what the original mercs were actually like, though.

To be honest though I liked Lore in a Minute's take better.

Those were the original models/skins for the TFC mercs.

A second, more detailed set was released later on, which are what the ones in the comics are based on.

I meant the original original mercs, the ones first shown in the comic before the Team Fortress Classic ones.

The 1850s mercs are a bunch of historical figures (and Fu Manchu)

Speaking of, some modders/modelers in the community were working on making them as replacements for the current ones.

See, that's what I'm talking about, though it'd be nice if Valve released it as official content. Would give the game a bit more flavour between updates for hats and weapons as well as Holiday related stuff.

You know, that might actually be fun seeing as the Mercs of old probably used completely different weapons, or at least more primitive ones compared to the modern mercs. Maybe a couple of historical maps where you use the older mercs and their weapons to fight over two pieces of identical land endlessly? They already sort of did that with SD_Doomsday, since that was an event that happened in the timeline's past.

This is a thing now:



I'm down with these becoming regular things considering the actual main game is lacking in any story content. Also, I hope they're indicators of upcoming updates; mutant bread as an event would be cool.
