All men agree that there's no greater shame than to be outcoifed by someone. Rich men spend millions of dollars every year to ensure their scalp is graced by the greatest gathering of hair imaginable. Unfortunately the Heavy has not been able to join this tradition. No longer! With this deceptively unrealistic toupé you'll fit right in!
— Fancy Vs. Nasty update description

The Coupe D'isaster is a community-created headwear item for the Heavy. It appears as a messily combed black Toupée, hence the reference to disaster in its name.

Trivia

  • Before being released in the Australian Christmas, the Coupe D'isaster was released as a downloadable skin in the Fancy vs. Nasty Update, created by Mister Royzo.
  • Coupe means cut in French and may be a pun on haircut as the item is a hairpiece.
  • The name is possibly a pun on "coup d'état", a French term meaning the sudden and illegitimate overthrow of a government, usually by the military. This is in keeping with the Heavy's military and communist theme and possibly a reference to the 1991 attempted military coup in Moscow.
  • The name may also be a reference to the other French term "coup de grâce", a death blow intended to end the suffering of a wounded creature or a defeated/helpless opponent.
