That Marmalade Fisherman Polar is reference to Paddington bear because that color scheme in his hat and jacket. Also Paddington eats marmalade sandwiches. :)

N. Gin's Ballerina costume is also taken from Crash Tag Team Racing. Just thought I'd point that out.

There's one you missed with Dingdile. It's the firefighter skin, it is reference in the end credits of CTR.

I mean if you call it "All references" it should be all. Even those obvious ones like gladiator Tiny or diver Crash.

Beach Coco's front hair bangs is also a reference to her Titans design.

You missed Master Moe (Kamodo Moe) wearing Jedi Robes with glowing red swords.

Skunk Crash could also be a reference to the skunk enemy you encounter in old crash games, as well as the talking skunk from Twinsanity. Clown Cortex could also be a reference to Twisted Metal. And you missed a big one, Musketeer Pura blatantly referencing Puss in Boots from Shrek.

You missed the obvious evil coco and evil crunch reference to mind over mutant.

Surprised you didn’t cover Dark Spyro

You forgot Lab Assistant that References Where's Wally.

3:02 It is also a reference to Doc Brown from back to the future. Plus the kart that came out at the same time is a reference to the flying car in back to the future 2. Polar also has reference to paddington bear Pura has a reference to puss in boots from Shrek

Liz’s Circus skin bears a striking resemblance to Sombra from Overwatch.

Green fixed Rilla Roo is obviously Hulk. ^^

Some references I’ve had months ago... Dirt Bike Crunch = Master Chief Racer Le Crunch = Charles Lecric Circus Megumi = Harley Quinn Circus Liz = Sombra (from overwatch) Pink Musketeer Pura = Pink Panther

One I think you missed is musketeer pura. It looks like it could be a reference to puss in boots from the shrek series

Big Norm and Small Norm have world of warcraft reference skins.

Here's one you missed! The Witch Tawna skin is a reference to The Wicked Witch of the West from The Wizard of Oz! I also feel that Werewolf Tiny IS a reference, specifically to I Was A Teenage Werewolf, where the main character wears a red varsity jacket (albeit obscured by the film being black and white).

N-Trance has Pinocchio and Humpty Dumpty references 😋 loving the videos man keep it up

8:21 the victory animation is a reference to Iron Man

Traveler lab assistant makes a reference to the book “Where’s Waldo?”

The gentleman penta is a reference to the Penguin from Batman, isnt it?

What about the Coco and Crunch from MIND OVER MUTANT? and Nina as a doll??

Two other references The icon of the clown cortex skin references the joker movie that came around the time One of polar's skins references Paddington

I will always love Werewolf Tiny because he references Michael Jackson

3:01 Shocked you didn't link this to Back To the Future since it was released along side the probulot 2000 from CTTR which looks a lot like a Delorean.

Don't forget how Cortex insulted the Norms as clowns.

The pink pura skin could be a subtle reference to cheshire since it came out with coco alice Penguin with a suit is like the Penguin from batman

Ninja penta penguin can be a reference to king pen from the skylander series

How could you forget about Marmalade Fisherman Polar?

Could the skunk skin also be a reference to the skunk from Twinsanity?

Wouldn’t Gentlemen Penta be a Riddler reference? And if you’ve seen “Rise of the Guardians” Winter Guardian Spyro could be a reference to Jack Frost (it’s even in his name)

I believe Polar's Marmalade Fisherman Polar skin is a reference to Paddington Bear, as marmalade sandwiches are Paddington's favorite food and the recolor matches his clothes color.

Expecting something special for Nitro Fueled’s 1st anniversary

I really hope there's a new update soon.

You forgot that Monster Fake Crash is a reference to the Sludge Titan from Titans. Similar moves and all.

Kamodo moe had a jedi skin

Clown Cortex is also a reference to CNK when Big Norm says he looks like a clown

Another one of Polar's skins is a reference to Paddington Bear.

Quite a few missed, just off the top of my head: -Ballerina N. Gin is also from TTR -Marmalade Fisherman Polar is a clear reference to Paddington (with color of clothes and being named "Marmalade", his favorite food) -Metal Head Oxide taking clear inspiration from the band KISS (Could be a general thing but they're always the first that comes to mind) -Devil Dog Zam likely being based on the Devil Dog enemies from Spyro

Happy Bandicoot Month everybody!

I noticed something funny. Blue Cortex skin. It's colour is the shade of periwinkle blue. Cortex's whole name is Neo Periwinkle Cortex. Also, ever since the game's launch, for the strange reason Blue Cortex reminds me of Dr. Drakken a bit.

You forgot that General Tiny may be a reference to his appearance in Crash of the Titans.

A for effort from a fellow Hispanic on the attempt of saying day of the dead in Spanish

The only two skins from CTR are Marmalade Fisherman Polar = Paddington Tawna Witches = Wizard of Oz/Oz Great & Powerful (Witches)

I want them to remake Twinsanity. And not just remake it. Completely finish the game with all the removed things like Evil Coco

GREAT ...but you missed X boxes, er, references. For real, great job on this, but there are tons more even if you have to mention tropes. I feel like it would even be better to include them rather than exclude them, but that’s just me! 🤗

Whoa! Wasn’t expecting a video so late in the day am I right? A welcome addition to my watch list though!

Also, the mushroom in Alice Coco's victory animation is from Crash Bash, specifically the Mallet Mash minigame and the Pogo Painter Crystal Challenge. In the latter, they were hazards that would trigger an instant loss if the player touched one.

CanadianGuyEh : You missed the following: 1-2. Evil Coco and Evil Crunch that were taken directly from Crash Mind Over Mutant 3. Beach Coco has her hairstyle from Crash of the Titans 4. Ballerina N.Gin is from CTTR 5. Dingodile has a firefighter skin based off his epilogue from CTR's credits 6. Ripper Roo has a top hat skin with a mustache and cane as a nod to the one he has in Crash 2 7. Lab Assistant has a Where's Waldo? skin 8. Marmalade Fisherman Polar is reference to Paddington bear 9. Humpty N. Trance is Humpty Dumpty after cracking his head 10-11. Small Norm and Big Norm have World of Warcraft skins 12. Liz's circus skin resembles Sombra from Overwatch 13. Dark Spyro skin is the Skylanders take on Dark Spyro from Legend of Spyro The Eternal Night 14. Spyro's superflame and ice breath skins are his powerups from Spyro Reignited Trilogy 15. Musketeer Pura is a reference to Puss in Boots from Shrek 2 16. Professor Crash from CTTR is also a reference to Back to the Future with the Probulot 2000 17 Dirt Bike Crunch resembles Master Chief from Halo 18. The Lab Assistant's Hacker skin is based on The Matrix 19. Devil Dog Zam is based on the Devil Dog enemies from Dark Passage in Spyro 1 And you should have included the skin references taken directly from NST including 20-22. Biker Crash, Scuba Crash, Aviator Crash 23-25. Prince Lab Assistant, Knight Lab Assistant, Lumberjack Lab Assistant 26. Gladiator Tiny 27, Pharaoh Cortex based on the Cortex sphynx seen in the Egyptian levels of Crash 3.

I thought the armoured polar was a reference to the ones in the His Dark Materials Trilogy?

You missed a lot, especially skins referencing other Crash titles, like Ballerina N.Gin or Evil Coco/Crunch for example, but that's ok :) More options for part 2 (though calling this video "All" kinda gives a wrong vibe). Anyway here are some you can add to part 2: - Marmalade Fisherman Polar -> Paddington (blue coat and red hat) - Musketeer Pura -> three Musketeers and Puss in Boots - Reindeer Crash -> Rudolph the red-nose reindeer - Small & Big Norm -> Orcs from either Spyro or WoW - Humpty N. Trance -> Humpty Dumpty - Wooden Doll N. Trance -> Pinocchio - Black Velvet Witch Tawna -> The Wicked Witch from Wizard of Oz (green skin) - Frank N. Brio -> Frankenstein's monster - Ragdoll Nina -> Pippi Langstrumpf - Traveler Lab Assistant -> Where is Waldo/Wally/etc. Bonus, since I can't confirm it, but based on the costume make it a strong possibility: Motorsport Liz -> Danica Patrick

I just wish another update comes.

Grumpy person:this is a dumb idea,who watch a Canadian guy eh video at midnight? People at midnight:oh boy 12am! (watching a recent new Canadian guy eh video)

Clown Cortex is also a reference to the Joker...I mean, it's a meme. Hacker Lab Assistant is a reference to Matrix (And Twinsanity's beta as they'd appear dressed like that). Mad scientist Crash is said to be a reference to Emmet Brown from Back to the Future. Neon Nina might be a reference to the singer of the band Ghost. That Penta outfit is also a reference to the TWoC penguins. Doll Nina is an Anabelle reference. Werewolf Tiny might be a reference from Twilight. Fisherman Polar is a reference to the kid from It (The movie). Electron Crash might be a reference to Flash. Green Cortex might be a reference to Hulk (I've read that Red Cortex is a reference as well, but can't remember the character name...Redhead or something like that). Blue Cortex might be a reference to an Ice character from Guardians of the Galaxy. Anime Cortex is a reference to...well, anime. General Tiny might be a reference to the Tank wars minigame from Crash Bash. Lynx Coco could be a reference to the lynx from Sonic. Evil Coco and Evil Crunch are from MoM. Painter Dingodile might be a reference to Pogo Padlock (Remember the Crash Paint truck on the back, with purple paint stains?). The Rustland skins are said to be a Mad Max reference. Pura has a Puss in Boots reference (Or El Zorro), also I heard Sabertooth Pura is a reference but can't remember it relly well, a Pokémon it was, I think. Penta Blue Jay a reference to Mordecai from Regular Show? The Spyro GP skins. Negative Pinstripe might be a reference to Scarface as well. Robot Crunch is an Ironman reference. Motocross Crunch might be a reference to that Xbox character I can't remember. Clownfish Nash and Nemo? Humpty Dumpty N-Trance... Wooden Doll N-Trance is Pinocchio. Space Liz is a reference to a meme (It's over 9.000!) The purple ! Box is a reference to Crash Bash

Man, Cortex has a harsh backstory. No wonder he's evil

This is a great idea as I do wonder how some of these character skins are picked and what they reference. Keep up the good work on this great worn idea. I mean even I want to know if Nina Cortex has a few reference skins/character costumes.

Witch Tawna (particularly her podium animation) is a reference to Samantha in the opening of Bewitched.

Now that you mentioned Disney they will notice and copyright-strike CTR

I think you missed General Tiny which is refference to Crash of the Titans

I always thaught Polar has a Paddington Bear Skin.... because of that yellow jacket.

N. Trace's Yellow Skin is a reference to Egg Fu the Supervillian of Wonder Woman from DC comics.

Missed ones are: Marmalade Fisherman Polar: Paddington Bear(and in the fur colour, Winnie the Pooh) Master Moe: Obi-Wan Kenobi Dark Spyro from Skylanders(not Legend trilogy, the Dark Spyros look completely different in these iterations) Hacker and Traveller Lab Assistant: Neo(Matrix) and Waldo Green Fixed Rilla Roo: Hulk Monster Fake Crash: Sludge from Titans games Firefighter Dingodile: Okay, maybe this shouldn't be counted, but take a look at Nitro-Fueled's epilogue in the end credits Rustland Tiny: His skull mask has GREAT resemblance to the face paint and blue mohawk seen in Rage 2's box cover Star Crash: redesigned version of his skin in CTTR, which in turn is Star Trek reference Ballerina N. Gin: CTTR skin Black Velvet Witch Tawna: Wicked Witch of the West

Emperor Velo Space Pirate Skin reminds me of Captain K. Rool from Donkey Kong Country 2.

Velo's pirate skin is a reference to Treasure Planet! It also looks similar to Captain K. Rool from Donkey Kong Country 2. (Which is worth nothing since crash shares similarities to the DKC series.)

6:40 I actually thought it was a reference to the Golden Compass movie.

If there’s one reference I’d love to see is the 1997 Universal logo during the title screen.

Pinstripe's negative skin also resembles the gangster movies from the 30's, since all of those were filmed in black and white, hence the negative name.

Yaya's blonde skin (Cupcake I believe) looks like Tiff/Fumu from the Kirby anime.

Great video, I hope we'll get second part

Aveattor crash (sorry if I spelt it wrong) is actually a reference to crash in his aeroplane in warped

Fishermen Polar - Paddington Musketeer Pura - Puss In Boots

much like Tiny, Papu Papu and N. Brio have Street Fighter related skins in the form of their Green and Fire Wizard recolors (being based on Blanka and Dhalsim respectively). The Lab Assistant's Lumberjack skin is an obvious reference to Mario right down to the Donkey Kong style mallet on his victory screen. His Traveler skin is also based on Where's Waldo and his hacker skin is based on Morphius from The Matrix. Fixed Rilla Roo's green skin is directly based on The Incredible Hulk. Also not sure if this one intentional or not but Gnasty Gnorc's purple skin kinda resembles Thanos.

You forgot polar's paddington skin

I think werewolf tiny is a reference to the 80s movie Teen Werewolf starring Michael J Fox.

I like this video!!! Good job CGE

You said „did I miss ANY“ hilarious

A quick reference for dingo is his firefighter outfit. While it's only a minor reference. It's in to the end credits of CTR where it shows what the characters were up to after Racing. Dingo put down his flamethrower for a high powered water hose and became of course a firefighter

spyro has a skin called dark spyro which is a reference to the legend of spyro the eternal night

Evel Knievel's son, Robbie Knievel, appeared in one of the commercials promoting Crash Bandicoot: Warped

Looking through those skins.... it made me think how we all unlocked them... instead of unlocking them via challenge, we had nothing but money grind instead. I kinda wish we had "challenge series" or "mission series" like from...... game i used to play in the past (King of fighters maximum impact on PS2) and that game had missions, which when you beat them... you unlocked alternate costumes for the characters. Now imagine... challenges like get 700000 point on ring rally at hot air skyway would give you lets say, Pinstripe's legendary skin alt 2 for example. I feel, that would be more satisfying and rewarding the player... then the simple grind. But then again... im kinda stuck with the mentality of older games, so the opinion on the matter is surely biased, so anyone reading it, please take it with the grain of salt. ;)

Cortex’s Clown skin is also a reference to Crash Nitro Kart where he called Big Norm a filthy clown. Maybe it’s Big Norm’s payback. N Gin’s Ballerina skin is a reference to Crash Tag Team Racing Polar’s Fisherman skin is a reference to Paddington Bear and his recolour Marmalade Fisherman takes it more further by giving him the same colours as Paddington himself. Wizard Komodo Joe’s skin is a reference to the purple robed wizards from the first Spyro game. Pinstripe’s purple suit skin could be a reference to Crash Twinsanity. Captain Velo XXVII is a reference to John Silver from Treasure Planet Traveller Lab Assistant is a reference to Where’s Wally? Green Fixed Rilla Roo is a reference to The Incredible Hulk Could Ragdoll Nina be inspied by Ragdoll Productions’ 1985 logo? Maybe Hacker Lab Assistant is a reference to the black clothed Lab Assistants in Wrath of Cortex If Megumi got a Cosplay skin, would it be based on Sailor Moon. A nice nod to Stephanie Sheh, who voiced Usagi in Sailor Moon Crystal English dub. I think Komodo Joe’s Green skin kinda makes him resemble Sir Hiss (Robin Hood 1973) in his blue clothes.

To be accurate about that Clown Cortex part: As stated in Wrath of Cortex strategy guide, Cortex comes from a family of clowns and he wasn't interested in clowning and making people smile. Instead he spent time reading science books. So his mean siblings force tattooed that N on his forehead, standing for ''nerd.'' And he was three years old when that happened. And then the freak ''accident'' happened that blew up Cortex's family to smithereens(save for one since Nina exists since she is Cortex's niece after all). At the age of four he enrolled to Madame Amberly's Academy of Evil and the rest is history. Except for the fact there was another freak ''accident'' when once again bullied Cortex was in high school when the whole place blew up just ''conviniently'' when he and N. Brio were two miles underground in an abandoned plutonium mine during the ''accident.'' But in other words, that Clown Cortex victory animation clearly shows how much he HATES his background.

Marmalade fisherman Polar's clothes are a reference to Paddington, while his yellow fur personally reminds me of Winnie the pooh. I think it's a double reference Also, Musketeer Pura most likely references Puss in boots

Ami's circus costume is a reference to Mary Poppins, I think

I'm just glad you said tiny is a tazmanian tiger because people still argue with me about it

one of tawna's witch costume recolors is a reference to gruntilda from banjo kazooie.

Evil crunch (and the equivalent coco skin) refer back to that 2nd mind over mutant skin

Clown cortex is also a reference to joker from the new joker movie

You missed LOADS of references for skins. Even obvious ones like Gladiator Tiny and loads of Crash’s alts.

First of all, this was an awesome video, I just wanted to make that clear. Second, you forgot about both Coco and Crunch "Evil" skins from Crash of the Titans Mind over Mutant. Also, there's N. Trace's Humpty Dumpty and Wooden Doll skins too. Just thought I'd let you know.

Komodo Moe has a Jedi skin

Also Cortex's red, blue and green skins are a reference to his boss fight from SB1, they're the color of the shots he fires

You forgot Alice coco is also a reference to Maria robotnik

There is one you missed it's the marmalade fisherman polar skin and it's a reference to Paddington the bear(he's the main character in the movies Paddington and Paddington 2),and since Paddington loves marmalade,its certainly a reference.

actually Polar has 3 references the Marmalade fisherman Polar is a reference to Paddington the bear.

Not sure if this was intended but I think the beenox geary skin also has an Iron Man reference. His podium animation has him shooting a giant laser from his chest similar to what Iron Man does in alot of the marvel movies and the way geary lands after flying around is a classic Iron Man pose from the movies.

Fun Fact: not necessarily the skin itself... But the winning podium animation for the Geek Fake Crash costume is a direct reference to the dance sequence from Nepoleon Dynamite. 👍

Zam Bulldog always looked like an obvious reference to Earl from Rocko’s Modern Life, to me. 🤷🏻‍♂️

One of polar's skins of waterproof suit gives him a red hat and blue jacket which is a reference to Paddington.

I think Wolf Tiny should have been included. The fact he is wearing a white and red varsity jacket is potentially a specific reference to the film 'Teen Wolf', starring Michael J. Fox, who, in the film and the movie posters (Google Images y'all!) is seen in the same attire.
