References to upcoming films

Much like Pixar, some of Universal Animation Studios' Easter eggs were references to the Universal films that were coming after them. Thus, these were called at the time of release references to upcoming Universal Animation films. Although it hasn't been as consistent as some of their other Easter eggs, in recent years it has become a tradition for Universal to put in each of their animated films by their feature animation division a cameo of or an allusion to a character from their following film.

Instances

 * Computeropolis has allusions to the two films that followed it:
 * A BJ and Wally comic strip appears on the newspaper Nicky is reading when Peri first encountered him.
 * Louis DeMinsky from M.I.S.S.I.O.N. makes a cameo as a icon for one of the computer games Peri used to play.
 * M.I.S.S.I.O.N. - Tiana Croson is reading a BJ and Wally comic book.
 * BJ and Wally:
 * Cyber-Boy from Computeropolis 2 is featured on a poster in BJ's room.
 * Also in BJ's room is a robot figure resembling Baymax, an allusion to Universal's Big Hero 6. Even though Universal's version of Big Hero 6 was canceled, it had been set to be released in 2008 (two years after BJ and Wally), and as such, this was technically a reference to an upcoming film.
 * Computeropolis 2 - The signs in Virtual Paradise depict Suz Grady and Lee Webb, an allusion to Swapped.

 * An anime version of Gabriel Garza appears on a manga Amai reads while he waits for the waiter in the sushi restaurant. Although Gabriel is an original character from the Gabriel Garza series, this cameo was advertised as an allusion to the 2011 CGI-animated reboot.
