Oh dear, I've made quite a mess.
The Spy, looking at his all-too-familiar work.

The Familiar Fez is an unlockable headwear item for the Spy released with the Polycount pack. It appears as a team-colored Fez that sits atop the Spy's regular balaclava along with sunglasses.

As with all of the item set hats, this hat can be crafted from four Refined Metals and one weapon from the Saharan Spy set.

Trivia

  • The hat is a reference to Mustafa, one of Dr. Evil's henchmen in Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me. There are several links:
    • In the film, Austin says to Mustafa "I don't recall your name, but your fez is familiar." [1].
    • The artwork used for the pack's Polycount entry image was a recreation of a still of Mustafa in the same pose, and the creator had admitted to watching Austin Powers a week prior to designing the pack.
    • The entry's description mentions a "line of three-question-format". In the film, Mustafa was unable to withhold answers after being asked the same question three times (on account of the fact it irritates him).
  • When released, there was no crafting blueprint for this item. This was later added due to it being needed for the set bonus.
  • This hat may also be a reference to Abu's hat from Aladdin (1992 Disney film) who wears a smaller but similar hat. This would be a second reference to the movie, the first being Your Eternal Reward. Coincidentally, both references are for the Spy.
