Easter Eggs (Destiny)

Are there even any easter eggs in Destiny? Halo had a bunch, but I can only think of one (bones in loot cave) in Destiny.

Are there others? Refresh my memory.

There's quite a few:

• The random Guardian in stasis your Ghost comments on at the top of the colony ship in the Cayde's Stash mission seems pretty out of place and might be one.
  
• Various people say silly things over the Tower's PA system. Most are just amusing in-world stuff but there's a few actual Easter eggs among them like "Blame Stosh" and something about "...serving your mom since 1991..."
  
• The Amusment Sphere, Soccer Ball and Servitor Ball might be considered minor Easter eggs.
  
• Randal the Vandal returns as Rahndel Perfected in Wrath of the Machine.
  
• There were those 7 coins hidden around the Tower. Like up in the trees and stuff. Someone won a prize or something for being the first to screenshot them all.
  
• The Tower fan and the Iron Temple's mancannon fire are kinda Easter eggs.
  
• That you can scale the Iron Temple's mountain peak is not at all obvious at first.
  
• There's some clever messages hidden by a UI designer in hex code on the edges of the main screen of the Director.
  
• Many of the gun names are references to various movies, books, sci-fi concepts,etc. My favorite was probably "TFWPKY 1969."
  
• During the last Festival of the Lost, there were those converging shadows in the Reef that merged to form a representation of Oryx on the floor.
  
• There's Skori's Song which can be played on the Iron Temple's bells for an achievement.
  
• The MIDA Multi-tool might be a subtle reference to the MIDA terrorist group that, in Marathon's universe, briefly overthrew the UEG on Mars.
  
• There's the bianary code on Rasputin's terminals and the scrolling coded messages on various displays on multiple Crucible maps.

Probably some other stuff to that I'm forgetting.
