Post the funny things you've found from Blizzard on their single player maps. There's probably one for each map, but I've only seen about 4 so far, and only bothered to screenshot two.
Anyway! To start us off.
Maw of the Void: South part of the map, patrolling back and forth in the background picture is what looks like a Dr. Who space ship

The Devil's Playground: Again south part of the map, what appears to be an imp in the shadows. There's probably more than just this one, but it's the one I found.

i didnt have the screen shot but in the + Show Spoiler + you can find a little murlock marin xD
|
Yeah I saw that one too, up near the landing pad before the brutalisk.
|
There's a metroid in one of the tanks in the secret mission.
|
Actually, i think that the flying Box in the first picture is not a Doctor Who reference, but more of an ingame easteregg continuity joke.
I dont have a screenshot, but
+ Show Spoiler +In the third mission, where you have to hold your ground against the zerg, in the northern middle of the map, in between two zerg bases, there is a tauren marine standing next to that kind of a box. If you click him, he will go inside, and if you click the box some times, it will lift off on a rocket engine, and look exactly like that. In fact, i also think it is a toilet, and not a phone box.

The soldier's dog tag which Raynor picks up in one of the cinematics has M. Koiter written on it which is a reference to a deceased Blizzard graphics artist.

I'm not 100% sure tho- In the second mission with the second base you 'can' save, there are some marines + a hero marine in front of second base, I think the hero marine was using a gears of war gun, the Lancer. (The one with the chainsaw attached to it.)

Isn't that just a merc marine?
And I think their guns just have normal bayonets, not chainsaw bayonets.

Reading the stuff under the main news broadcast was always a bit fun for me to read. Not really an easter egg though.

That's the portable toilet flying in the OP. In that mission tauren marine walks into it and takes off I believe.

I think that "imp" is Diablo.

You know I was looking at that for the longest time trying to find our what zerg that was. Im guessing its a metroid. + Show Spoiler +
Also when you beat the secret mission that toilet flys around the hyperion window :p

In the Credits are some funny thanks e.g. "Your mom and dad"..

Huzzah! Hes on the secret mission map, you can see where from the minimap.

The easter egg I saw was one that is pretty much in plain sight, though I suppose it's not fully an easter egg.
To me..

Would be cool if that was connected. And it did't seem to appear rarely at all, even within a mission. In fact, when I set off with my BCs I saw it flying by like 10 times before I reached my destination... As if it were ridiculing my movespeed.
