Can anyone else help clarify this/pitch in ideas? I'm not going to make any edits until I can confirm all references. I know I'm going to sound like a broken record by saying this, but don't you think there might be a reference or two in this item's description? My gut instinct tells me there's at least 1 Charlie the Unicorn reference in there (I haven't seen the series in years) and that the mention of the unicorn being the Mayor of Pyroland might be a reference to the old TV show H.R.

16:39, 13 July 2012 (PDT) Yeah, it must be something like that, since my AJ Balloonicorn does'nt even show up behind my character in game, but does in the item menu. Perhaps you're experiencing something similar. After a second or two, it appears back in the slot I put it in my normal.

Occasionally, my Balloonicorn switches to random miscs, or doesn't even show up in on my class until I go check my loadout. Indeed, this might be the fault of the item server. I don't think this is a bug pertaining exclusively to painted Balloonicorns. Now's the bug: It seems that on soldier (and some other classes as well like heavy), when i have the AppleJack equipped, it changes color to my grey Ponysona one. I also bought name tgs to name one as my ponysona (the grey) and the other as AppleJack (The cream spirit one) I decided to paint that one Cream Spirit that I bought from the Mann Co store as well. Then i went on to rebuild some headgears, and crafted another random Balloonicorn (dat luck lol). Here's the situation: I bought a Balloonicorn from the Mann co Store and painted it Grey (Old Moustache or something like that).
