    There an easter egg in that all throughout the prehistoric level there is carvings of the elemental mask from the original crash 4 wrath of cortex. The most obvious one can be seen in one of the bonus stages

    There's also a Flashback level called Bandicoot vs Wombat, which I believe is a reference to Naughty Dog's first mockup design for Crash, which was called Willy the Wombat.

      in a later level cortex says something about how he should have used a wombat instead of a bandicoot. so double willy the wombat references

    4:47 A reference to one of the jetboard levels in Crash 2 (N.sane remake) as fake crash is dancing on a platform out of reach in the blue gem path once you have gotten 100% (Fake Crash did the same dance in N.Sane)

    Easter Egg:At the beginning of the game(the beach)you see a purple surf board with a strange mark on it,it to me looks identical to the mark from Crash of the Titans.(For those who don't know he got changed and looked a lot different,compare the simbol to the one found on his arm.)

    The Wrath of Cortex masks, the Elementals can be seen carved throughout the Blast to the Past level. The small radio in N. Sanity Peak at the beach plays the original Crash Bandicoot theme. The flashback tapes use music from the original trilogy. In Crash Landed, the first set of boxes are arranged in the same pattern as the crates in Snow Go from Crash 2. The level's name is its self a reference to the canceled Crash Bandicoot game of the same name. In Cortex Castle there are portraits on the walls. On a couple of these portraits, Tiny Tiger can be found. The planet Bermugula was first mentioned by Nitros Oxide in CTR and is now a playable environment. Nitros Oxide also has a wife. The minecarts in Toxic Tunnels have Koala Kong's head on them. Willie the Wombat, the original Crash design is an unlockable skin for Crash, with Wanda the Wombat as an alternate skin for Coco. The stones in the water are the original rolling stones used in Crash 1. There is a poster of Megamix in one of the junkyard levels.
    Just thought I'd point out the ones you missed.

    In the snow level, when you enter the cave, if you listen closely, you hear a nod to crash 2 snow go ost.
    It skipped my mind until the last measure played and I pressed the capture button on the switch to get the past 30 sec. Of gameplay.
    And luckily enough, that was enough time to get the entire theme. It's pretty cool! No pun intended.
    I'm glad they threw that in there as a reference ^^

    The TV ad for Dingo's Diner mentions "Wumpa Cheeks". This is a reference to Willie Wumpa Cheeks from CTTR.

    The mine carts in Toxic Tunnels have pictures of Koala Kong on them.
    Megamix can be seen on a poster in Crash Compactor.
