I think it can

There isn't really that much surface area to properly paint on the Neon Annihilator as most of it is already supposed to be made out of neon or electronics. You could color the pipe structure, but the actual portrait of the weapon can't really be painted very well. Which is probably why you can't.

No, not as far as I know, nor the TF2 Wiki. Probably because it already *is* a neon-sign, adding more festive lights to it would be a bit overkill

Keep in mind that this was partially a promotional item for Sleeping Dogs, so any reason against these things could very well be because of Activision. They would probably have a foot in deciding these things surrounding the weapon.

Fair enough. But how would you festivize this weapon?

Wrap it up and when it crits it sets itself on fire

That's actually very cleverly thought out. But it doesn't really spontaneously combust. I thought it was more the electrocution that was a lethal critical in this case.
I still think, despite the logic, that it could be a very neat festivized weapon with these elements in mind. You could have small scraps of wrapping stuck to the head that kept burning as long as you hold it.
We may have to ask Activision though.

There’re still a few weapons that can’t be painted

Tf2 devs will probably act on this in the next update
