Interestingly, the number 95 since then has also appeared quite a bit in Pixar’s later animated films. For example, the number 95 on the Lightning McQueen in “Cars”, on the train or even on the shirt of a kid playing at Sunnyside Daycare kindergarten in “Toy Story 3”. No wonder why this number is considered as one of the best Pixar Easter Eggs.

6. I..car?
This detail is definitely one of the best Pixar Easter Eggs. As some people may know, Apple co-founder Steve Jobs is considered as the key investor in Pixar when he bought the studio from Lucasfilm.

That is maybe because it was the year when the first MAC appeared in the world. It is probably among the most surprising Pixar hidden details and Easter Eggs ever.
7. “Incredibles” Underwear
This Easter Egg is indeed among the most hilarious Pixar movie details. In “Ratatouille”, you must be a really attentive person if you are able to discover the underwear of the clumsy chef Linguine bears the logo of the movie “Incredibles”.
