| “ | It's not often you're given the gift of a beloved character's decapitated head by the very studio responsible for that character. Still, we're not complaining. It's soft, it wicks away moisture in the heat of battle, it highlights our eyes. It's got us thinking about all the other game characters we could be wearing around as clothes.
— Valve's official description

Max's Severed Head is a headwear item available to all classes. The item was awarded to players who bought Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse within the first week of its release. It appears to be Max's head with his jaw removed, giving the appearance that he's biting on the wearer's head.
Along with this hat, came the weapons "The Lugermorph" (For Scout and Engineer) and "The Big Kill" (For Spy) as a Pre-order promotion for Sam & Max : The Devil's Playhouse (Telltale Games). This promotion is now unavailable. However, this hat can still be obtained through Trading.
Trivia
- The in-game description mentions the hat as being crafted in cruelty-free farms in the Philippines. This is a reference to the first Sam & Max comic, Monkeys Violating the Heavenly Temple, which took place in the Philippines.
- Textures for a team-colored version of Sam's Hat are also in the game's files, suggesting that Sam's Hat would have been added as well.
- There is a Self-made variant owned by Telltale Games employees (such as Jake Rodkin) which has a sparkle effect.
- The name of this hat is a possible reference to a running joke about presidents losing their heads in Sam & Max: Lincoln's severed head is a recurring character in the games, while Sam and Max keep the President's severed head in their closet as a trophy. Ironically, since Max is the current president in the series, he seems to have met the same fate as the previous presidents by getting his head severed.
