Nope missed that but as long as its in a better context than fabius bike I'm sure I'll enjoy it (not long till GF deliver mine I think)
I know if you take all the new first names you get a rather strange nod to a folk band (4chan discovered that one a while back)

I have read the page, and I don't know what the reference is. Then again, I'm not terrible familiar with the Pink Panther, either.

Don't have the new codex yet, probably won't get here until 2nd week October.
If anyone finds it, please just say you did without giving away the spoiler!

Well, I would. Could you either PM it to me or use the Spoiler text feature. I'm too lasy to learn all about the Pink Panther so that I can figure it out.

Wolflord Havoc spotted it (and fell about laughing) not me so he gets the credit.

Well, mattjgilbert has pointed it out to me, and I'm not finding it all that funny. I guess Pink Panther jokes just don't do much for me.

I guess it's one of those things like any joke - if you don't get it because you don't know the subject, it's then not amusing once it's explained to you :)

You know what's really sad? I didn't find out till yesterday (and purely by accident) that Ghazgkull Mag Uruk Thraka is a play on "Margaret Thatcher". :(

Just checked Marine codex page 85. At least that one was nice and obvious :)

Do you think that there might be a Spike Milligan joke in the chaos dex we have missed?

Not just the name, but first special rule, surprise attack!
Excellent!
