It is great to see her contributing to the the studio and I hope we see more of her work there in the future.

Paladino, the alter ego of Gazerbeam.

There are sure to be more easter eggs hidden within the confines of the TV special. Pixar, as usual, has cleverly hidden an incredible number of easter eggs. If you have found anything else, make sure to let us know in the comments below and we will do our best to add them to the list!
