  1. What is the doll/toy sitting in the police car?
  2. Who is the Thundercat-looking lady between Zombie Michael Jackson's arm and his head?
  3. Who is the redhead with the forehead tat between (masked) Jason's arm and his head?
  4. Is the blond guy to the left of Alf supposed to be Dave Thomas from Strange Brew?
  5. Who is the blue and yellow dude flying in the top left quadrant of the image?
  6. What is the horror icon over Grace Jones's left arm?
  7. What is the green sign saying "Novelties" with an apparent four-leaf clover (partially unseen) referencing?

Amazing jpeg.

Spot any criminal omissions? The lack of any Tron or AD&D reference seems glaring.
 
1. A Cabbage Patch Kid?

That's all I got
 
1. Looks like Gordon the Gopher, a character on kids television in the UK

Took me ages to spot Flav but Run DMC should have been in there and a vial of crack
 
Looks like I mostly missed British references. That makes sense.

LOL, so it is just a straight up Thundercat. I thought maybe there was a different icon who rocked a similar look.

That’s an awesome drawing. So many great memories!

I’ll show my 27 year old son and see how many he can nail.
