Dimitri Posted December 3, 2016 Report Share Posted December 3, 2016 Hi guys. We all have noticed the funny references wyrd chooses for malifaux. Lenny is peting a piglet like Lenny from "of mice and men" was peting rabbits.. Ulix has a pig crew like Odysse whos crew was turned into pigs by Circe.. Old major is .. old major from "animal farm".. François although mimics Francisco, he also stands like Clint Eastwood.. Post stuff you noticed and you liked. Mostly for gremlins but you can post for other factions too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gremlin66 Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 Trixiebelle and Beyonce's booty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the tick Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 Burt Jebson and Gracie are (I think) a throw back to Big Trouble in Little China. Kurt Russell's character was Jack Burton and I think he was sweet on some character named Gracie 'something-or-other' who got kidnapped by Lo Pan (who may be referenced by Wong?).

Lo Pan is more Yan Lo. Wong is Egg Shen, who was played by Victor Wong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kim Cattrall's character is called Gracie Law, and Kurt Russell's truck is called Pork-Chop Express. There is an article in Chronicles #5 about it.

Joel Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 From other factions: the author of Pinocchio was named Collodi Hoffman and Coppelius are also connected through the sandman tale (back in first edition Hoffman used to be able to hire him too - I miss that rule!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually it's Pamela Anderson booty (Trixiebelle is wearing the same and in the same pose as Pamela Anderson in a Playboy pinup poster from the nineties). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Four_N_Six Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 I'd post the picture of Pamela Anderson as comparison, but I'm at work and don't think a Google search for it is the best plan at the moment. Zipp has a couple of abilities that remind me of Team Rocket. However, he's definitely a certain DOoP officer some of us are so familiar with. He even has a reptile-like creature as his first mate.

Dogmantra Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 There's a thread in the malifaux discussion subforum about this too, you might be interested in it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
